SUMMARY
- One synapse (the space between neuronal cells) has the storage capacity of 4,7 bits. Knowing the whole number of synapses, it turns out that the brain's memory storage equals 1 petabyte - and it is 10 times more than previously thought!
- The visibility of the abs muscles also depends on body fat percentage. The numbers are different for men and women. The definition is visible with 3-6% of fat for men and 8-12% for women.
- Our bones are made of a composite material: they are hard and elastic at the same time. Bones consist of calcium hydroxyapatite (about 60%) and collagen, so their structure is fracture resistible.
- When we are actively slimming, excess fat falls into carbon dioxide and water, which is accompanied by the release of energy. To get rid of 2,2 pounds of fat, you need to burn through 7,700 kcal.
- If the total area of all lung air cells were summed up, you would get the area of a tennis court! And all this fits inside our body.
- According to the statistic, men are more subjected to this trouble than women.
- Taste, sight, smell, touch, and hearing are by far not the only senses we have. Scientists count from 9 to 20 senses, by various estimates.
- Due to having no blood vessels, the cornea remains transparent. This is good because their presence would be a barrier to eyesight.
- Most babies have blue eyes when they are born. But if you have always been dreaming of a blue-eyed child, don't get your hopes up, the color tends to change over time. It is explained by melanin, which is responsible for the eye color.
- It has been noticed that 50% of women who has cardiomyopathy got well during their pregnancy without any healing. The explanation is in the stem cells of the baby, which are capable of restoring the injured tissues of a woman.
- An average person blinks once in every four seconds, but it can be even more often when they are tired, worried, or surprised. However, it is believed that women blink twice as much as men do.
- Many people think that they cannot open their eyes while sneezing because they will be "blown out" of the skull. The truth says otherwise.

- Human ears are capable of "hearing" molecules. If you want to make sure of the fact, just close your eyes and ask somebody to pour some cold water into one glass and some hot water into another.
- Swedish scientific research shows that the risk of a heart attack is higher on Mondays and during the Christmas or New Year holidays. The lowest rates are on Saturdays and in the middle of summer (July).
- If someone has 2 or more pupils, it is more often a fake effect: only one "hole" in the cornea does the job of a pupil. All additional holes do not play any role for eyesight. There was a case with a woman from Massachusetts who had five pupils, all in one eye.
