| Posted: 03 Aug 2018 06:24 AM PDT Alter Thanks for the instructive reactions and particularly from individuals who work in this field. How about we trust your insight forestalls loathsome episodes like these later on. Edit2: Quite a considerable measure of reactions here additionally about the authenticity of the field of flame examination. I know essentially nothing about this territory, so hearing this perspective is additionally fascinating. I did askscience all things considered, so the basic focuses are welcome. Much obliged, all.

| What is the simplest, most primitive organism that still has the need to sleep? Posted: 03 Aug 2018 12:10 AM PDT So I suppose bacteria and similar things do not sleep ever. And every animal out there sleeps, including tiny insects, right? So at what point of organism development the need to sleep appears? [link] [comments]  |

| Can strong fibers be made from nonbasaltic minerals? Posted: 03 Aug 2018 06:37 AM PDT This has been question eating at me for a long, but I can't find any research on this (going ether way). I know we can make basalt fibers with pretty good tensile and elasticity properties. They can be woven into strong 'fabrics' or used as reinforcement for rigid structural materials, but what about other rock/mineral types? What about other feldspars, micas, zeolites, etc? Are other minerals not found in basalt similarly useful as fibers or is everything else only good for structurally useless rockwool? I assume not all minerals are equal, but it seems strange to me that only what's found in basalts would make strong fibers. [link] [comments]  |
| Why is it so difficult to find out the root cause of some diseases? Posted: 03 Aug 2018 01:19 AM PDT I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis about five years ago, and despite all the research and money going in to treat the illness, very little is still known about it. It's hypothesised that viral, environmental, or genetic factors may play a role, but still nobody knows the trigger of why our bodies suddenly start attacking itself; in my case, the myelin sheathing that protects the nerves. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and maybe give some insight on this enigma. Cheers! [link] [comments]  |
| How was the Charles Kuonen Suspension Bridge installed? Posted: 03 Aug 2018 05:22 AM PDT Title pretty much says it all. It's the longest suspension bridge in the world and basically hangs between two mountains with very little access to lifting vehicles. My guess is that the cables were lifted in place using helicopters and then the path was laid down piece by piece, but I'd appreciate a more enlightened opinion. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Who actually uses the Candela SI unit? Posted: 03 Aug 2018 05:05 AM PDT An internet search certainly throws up many definitions of the unit, but I am interested in specific applications: an example of a technical manual, published papers etc that use this unit. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 02 Aug 2018 05:00 PM PDT Are there any projects/experiments ongoing - or proposed - that are attempting to split an electron or quark? Or in some other way test whether these particles can be broken down or subdivided into smaller, theoretical unknown particles? [link] [comments]  |

| Why do we occasionally bite our lips/cheeks while eating? Posted: 02 Aug 2018 11:49 PM PDT After eating for 20+ years, why does my brain forget how to eat properly resulting in a bleeding lip? [link] [comments]  |
| What factors contribute to difficulty when drawing blood from someone? Posted: 02 Aug 2018 11:32 PM PDT I've been told by different lab technicians that I have small veins, that I'm dehydrated (I'm not,) that my veins go "flat" and that I have scar tissue from having blood drawn multiple times in July.

| What happens to a lost ant when it's dropped off to another ant colony? Posted: 02 Aug 2018 08:02 PM PDT I noticed an ant in my room earlier and decided to carefully drop it off (a bit far away) outside, next to a bunch of other ants. Will the other ants reject the lone ant? If so, do they kill it or just drive it away? [link] [comments]  |
