Near the start of the pandemic I read vitamin D that deficiencies might be linked to (worse) cases of COVID-19. But nothing lately, what is the scientific staus on this?

Why is laser light monochromatic?

Posted: 07 Sep 2021 12:11 AM PDT

The common explanation for this is that the electron moves from one orbital to another and the light emitted is given by the E=hf. However, since an electrons position are 'vague', ie. defined by a probability, how come the emitted light doesn't demonstrate a small variation in the wavelength? (Or does it?!)

Is it possible for fossils to be found in metamorphic rock?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 07:58 AM PDT

Been reading magic school bus with my son, this question came to mind. If fossils form in sedimentary rock, and then that rock becomes metamorphic rock, can the fossil survive that process?

Dolphins use echolocation to visualize objects around them, and are able to make a wide variety of sounds. Can they reproduce the echo or sound image of an object in order to communicate it to other dolphins?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 11:02 AM PDT

For example, to say the word "fish", could they reproduce the sound image (or a simplified version) of a fish?

Why is bacteria phagotherapy not widely used to combat serious bacteria resistant infections?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 04:34 PM PDT

Have a family member struggling for months with a super-resistent bacteria and the only would be solution (phago therapy) is not available anywhere it seems.

Why is there discrete states of matter, as opposed to a continuous “spectrum” of matter?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 02:50 PM PDT

Why does matter go through discrete phases of solid → liquid → gas, rather than a continuous change going through a "buttery" or "syrup"-esque phase?

Are hemp plastics structurally distinct from petroleum-based plastics?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 02:41 PM PDT

A friend the other day tried to tell me that hemp-based plastics are superior because they're biodegradable, but I don't know that I believe that. After all, it is still plastic... right?

When looking at the Milky Way, are you looking deeper onto the Milky Way or out of the Milky Way?

As the earth warms, shouldn’t rainfall increase?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 07:22 PM PDT

It seems like a lot of areas are experiencing record drought levels. I find this curious because evaporation of the oceans should increase as the planet warms right?

Why is emission of a helium nucleus such a common form of nuclear decay?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 09:11 PM PDT

Wondering why alpha decay of all things is a helium nucleus, why could it not be say a deuterium nucleus or a lithium nucleus. What is so special about helium-4 which makes it the most common kind of decay particle?

Are there organisms with multiple brains?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 08:46 AM PDT

I am excluding symbiotic units for this question. And I'm also specifying only brains grown through cell differentiation, not through the assimilation of a foreign organism.

And, if they exist, what are they?

Thanks.

what is the tallest habitable building to have been brought down as a direct result of an earthquake?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 11:34 PM PDT

I'm not sure this is the best subreddit for this question, so feel free to direct me to a better one.

I've tried searching for this information along various keywords, without much success.

I'm imagine there would be at least 3 categories of "brought down":

  1. Complete or near complete collapse of the building as a direct result of an earthquake. Very little demolition would be required in this case as the earthquake would have done most of the "work".
  2. Significant or partial collapse of the building, rendering it unfit for habitation, and therefore subject to demolition, as a direct result of an earthquake.
  3. Other significant structural damage, rendering it unfit for habitation, and therefore subject to demolition, as a direct result of an earthquake.

What happened to wildfires and forest fires before humans developed firefighting techniques? Did they all eventually run out of things to burn? If not, how else could they end?

Whatever happened to the theory that you could catch covid-19 via your eyes?

Posted: 06 Sep 2021 01:02 PM PDT

I recall a Dr. in 2020 theorized that's how he got it.
