Did you know that if you eat 30.000 bananas in ten minuter, the radiations would kill you?
This phenomenon is due to the fruits containing potassium & potassium decays.
Potassium is a necessary substance to be able to achieve healthy operations within the human body.
You are only able to die of radiation poisoning if you were able to eat a total of 10 million bananas at once. You may also experience chronic symptoms if you were to eat 274 bananas every day for 7 years straight.
But did you know...
That you humans share about 50% of our DNA with bananas?
By sequencing the genome of bananas & humans, researchers have discovered have similarities in their base material.
Human beings have been found to share many of the housekeeping genes that are necessary for cellular function with bananas.
Without bats, say goodbye to bananas, avocados and mangoes. Over 300 species of fruit depend on bats for pollination.
Bats help distribute the seeds of these important plants, so they can reproduce and create more fruit for us humans to eat and enjoy. Without pollinating and seed-dispersing bats, many ecosystems would gradually die.
Now I’m thinking about it so another fun fact I learned in Psychology was this one story of a lady who had the part of her brain connecting the two hemispheres cut to reduce her seizures, which meant that they could no longer communicate.
She was then shown a picture on a screen closer to her left side (right eye may have also been closed). When asked to describe the picture, she could only say so much (the fact that it was a woman) but couldn’t describe what the woman was doing.
She was asked to write what was happening with her right hand and both eyes closed. Then she was asked, without looking at what she wrote, what she guessed the woman was doing.
She said jump rope.
Then she looked at what she wrote, and it read ‘telephone.’
The woman in the picture was, in fact, on the telephone.
This is because she couldn’t communicate what she saw, but because her left brain could control the right, she could write what she saw, even though she didn’t know what it was she was writing.
being aromantic is like. hey btw you're going to live a life that is the culmination of most of society's worst nightmares. sorry lol ✌️ but then you turn around and take a really good hard look at it and it turns out that living in that nightmare is fucking awesome and you get to wake up every day and take that fear that other people have and laugh and hold it close until it's a great joy for you instead. and being happy is a radical act that you define instead of someone else. and you're sexy as fuck that's just a fact of life i don't make the rules on that one
