In species where only the strongest male gets to breed, or kills non-offspring babies, how does the species maintain genetic diversity? |
- In species where only the strongest male gets to breed, or kills non-offspring babies, how does the species maintain genetic diversity?
- Are pacemakers able to adjust their "heart rate" based on the exertion of the person they belong to? Do they support a feedback system with the body?
- Is there any practical use for laminar flow in liquids, or is it purely a neat aesthetic phenomenon?
- Is there an analogous condition to color blindness in hearing?
- Why can't you make beverages 'sparkly' using pressurized air? Why do we use pressurized CO2 instead?
- Are there any vertebrates that can see significantly far into the infrared range?
- Is there an equivalent to tetrachromacy in hearing?
- Does gravity affect sound? Would musical instruments sound the same on different sized planets, if they all had the same atmosphere?
- Does dental plaque fossilize?
- Is stable, short term axial tilt oscillation possible?
- How do we know how ancient languages sound?
- Does artificial heart have to be in exactly same place as the natural heart?
- I recently found out that with enough time, you can dissolve (up to a certain point of) salt into water without ever heating or stirring it. Does this rule also apply to non-crystalline rocks? If you left granite in water for a really long time, would that make it eventually disintegrate as well?
- How do deep-sea creatures MOVE in the sea with all that pressure?
- Do viruses evolve faster than humans?
- Can we know anything about the older star that created our sun?

| Posted: 03 Jul 2022 02:41 AM PDT I was thinking about this today, since someone's heart rate fluctuates even as they just stand up, do pacemakers have a way of dealing with such fluctuation? And if they can, to what extent can they support changes in heart rate? Could a pacemaker patient go for a run, or participate in extreme sport, for example? [link] [comments] |

| Is there an analogous condition to color blindness in hearing? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 10:41 AM PDT T.L.D.R.: Is there any medical condition that make two clearly different tones indistinguishable from each other? Take in acount that color blindness is very different to tone deafness because listening silence is like seeing black and not like confusing different types of light. I know that hearing are sight are very different processes for analogous physical phoenomena, but you should get what I am asking. [link] [comments] |

| Is there an equivalent to tetrachromacy in hearing? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 10:45 AM PDT Are there some people capable of listening up or below the audible spectrum? What is the highest and lowest record for human hearing? [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 03 Jul 2022 06:32 AM PDT I don't recall ever seeing a fossil skull with anything like dental plaque on it, do scientists simply clean it right off along with the other debris or is plaque an entirely modern thing? [link] [comments] |
| Is stable, short term axial tilt oscillation possible? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 05:17 PM PDT Earth's axis averages 23.5 degrees, but it can range from 22 to 24.5 and only changes in tens of thousands of years. Is shorter term oscillation possible in thousand or hundred year timescales for other (real or hypothetical) planetary objects? [link] [comments] |
| How do we know how ancient languages sound? Posted: 02 Jul 2022 10:00 PM PDT Like the title suggests, how do people who study ancient languages like Latin or Ancient Greek know how the letters are pronounced? Do they just compare it to modern languages, or is there another way? [link] [comments] |
| Does artificial heart have to be in exactly same place as the natural heart? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 01:13 PM PDT Wouldn't it be better if artificial heart was for example outside of the body? Easier to maintain and body wouldn't reject it so much. [link] [comments] |

| How do deep-sea creatures MOVE in the sea with all that pressure? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 06:16 AM PDT I'm not talking about how they can withstand the pressure. I understand the internal pressure is the same as the outside. But how do they like move their fins to move thru the water shouldn't it be harder to move with all the pressure. Are their muscles stronger or do they just move slowly or what? [link] [comments] |
| Do viruses evolve faster than humans? Posted: 03 Jul 2022 11:58 AM PDT Like in the title, do viruses evolve faster than humans? Or, more in general, faster than mammals? And what about bacteria? [link] [comments] |
| Can we know anything about the older star that created our sun? Posted: 02 Jul 2022 12:30 PM PDT the solar system (along with other stars) were created by a cloud of gas and dust formed by the nova of a previous star. is there anything we can learn or find out about what that "parent" star system was like? like.. theres gotta be some kind of evidence. Can we find clues as to what kind of planets were around it when this old star existed? what kind of star it was? [link] [comments] |
