Re: Questions That Need Answers

• Is a zebra a type of horse? Nope its not
• Can fish smell? Yes it can

• Where do fishes extract their waste from? (I've never seen an "opening")
  Probably through their gills

• What is "concentrate"? (Like on the orange juice cartons, it says "Not from Concentrate" or "100% from Concentrate". What's all that about?)

. In many situations, the concentration process is necessary to ensure quality, taste, and freshness. Some fruits must travel from exotic locations, and the time taken in transportation may spoil the freshness. Some fruits are only in season for a short amount of time. Concentration allows for fruits to remain unspoiled for longer periods of time.

You’re lying. They don’t poop through their gills. I know that.

Atleast..I don’t think they do..=\

GO - I’ll grow up at my own pace, thankyou.

phatima, fish have anus, and female fish lay eggs, while the male spits the sperm thru the mouth on the eggs.

mamals like whale have penises.

Zebras and horses belong to the same family, yes. My question is…are zebras white with black stripes or black with white stripes?

the are actually pink, you just cant see any pink because its completely covered by the black and white stripes..

you want proof…go shave a zebra

Zebra is a donkey in this world where President Bush is corny.

Fish cant smell, they mutually agree and delve.

Fish too go to loo, they have some shame unlike you.

Your tummy has a head that thinks on its own, unlike your chatterbox, that only frowns..

All the wise ones, concentrate... all the idiots, demonstrate !

Tom Petty is a boy who works hard
and looks after his bro, who is a retard

His mother cooks porridge, to feed the family
His ancestors were vagabonds, that solves the mystery

Just like Mr. Andreson is the master of Matrix
Nowadays Postal service only delivers anthrax

• Is a zebra a type of horse?

Zebras are from the horse family , just like urangutangs and chimpanzees are from the same money family but are different from each other

and its possible that they can have babies together

this is rare…but then its not very often that a zebra comes across a horse

• Can fish smell? yes. although not in the regular way humans can, some have better sensory detectors like sharks who can allegedly smell a blood in water ten miles away

• Where do fishes extract their waste from? (I’ve never seen an “opening”) you havent looked properly…its probably very very small…
  there is a reason why you have to clean out your fish tank!
  also , the white coral sand you find on some exotic islands is the end product of fish…they eat coral…their insided crunch it up and viola…a grain or two of sand

people pays lots of money to walk on beaches of accumilated fish refuse

• (“Why do we eat when it’s just going to end up in the toilet anyways?” I got the answer to this one, it’s because we absorb the nutrients.) But, how do our tummies know what is nutrients and what is not? Also, if all we absorb is nutrients, then why are some people less healthy than others?

Your body needs energy to work …like a car needs petrol, it needs a range of different things that help different parts work … these things are called carbohydrates, fats, and protein and in addition to that it needs things called vitamins and minerals

and thats the reason to eat…otherwise you’d collapse in a heap on the floor and just make the place look messy

Everybodys bodies are different, just like you get tall and short people…the insides work differently too

the machinary that creates fuel for your body starts out like a reallyyyyy long tube which runs through your body…one opening is the mouth andthe other …is ehem…well at the other end..

the idea is to break down the food into tiny weeny structures … so it can be absorbed

but some people bodies are bad at absorbing or need help to turn the food into nutrients…
also some people do not eat the range of food that will give them the optimum energy or nutrients

• What is “concentrate”? (Like on the orange juice cartons, it says “Not from Concentrate” or “100% from Concentrate”. What’s all that about?)

Concentrate means that the water has been taken out
if you have oranges from florida… and teh juice has been squeezed out of them youll find that you have a a huge quantity…truck loads

and its not cheap to send your truck loads of fresh orange to the shops

BUT if you take out teh main bulk which is water … what is left behind is a lot lighter and easier to carry around or send abroad and a greet deall cheaper too

so the water is taken out in factories…the strong tasting residue is packed into small containers and sent to other places…to factories who add water to bring it back to what it was and pack it up
this type of product must be labelled as “from concentrate”

• Why does Tom Petty look like a complete white boy, when his biological brothers look Indian? (You know, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. His mom is like white and his grandmother is Indian or something, and he’s the only kid in his family that has blonde hair and blue eyes, the rest look Indian. Strange.)

when a new human or anything liek plant etc is being created it need to know what to look like…the things that tell the celles are something called genes…

and these are gotten from the parents…

they come in different types…dominant…which is stronger and recessive which is weaker

the parents each give a gene for different traits
depending on what the parents themselves have …if one parent provides a dominant genes for say , eye colour and the other parent a recessive one..the dominant will win out and the kid will get dark eyes

if both are dominant the the eyes will be dark too

however if one is recessive…and the other parent provides a recessive one you get the light eyes

• What instruments does the band The Postal Service use to make their music? It’s strange, but I love it.

Im sorry I couldnt tell you because I dont know…the postal service in the Uk is called royal mail and as far as I know they dont use musical intruments but bicycles to get around

I think you should listen to a better class of music, like Beethoven, bach or abba
That’s all for the moment.

i wonder what you’ll ask next

Re: Questions That Need Answers

PCG - nah. I'm planning on taking either ap physics or ap chem next year. maybe environmental if i want to take it real easy.

LD, thanks. How do you know all this stuff? Don't old people raidly lose brain cells?

[lazy_daisy]

Re: Questions That Need Answers

Phatima..Old people only lose the brain cells that actually matter and are useful
for example, i can guarantee that the brain cells that have information stored like...dentist appointment next tuesday at 10 will spontaneously combust

however brains cells whch contain information like if you take a full glass of milk and a full glass of popcorn you can put all the popcorn in the glass of milk without spilling it... which is miraculous...kind of...in a lame kinda way!

anyway what im trying to say is that information you need is likely to be "lost"
whereas useless information stays in your scull and helps you from being becoming lightheaded...its good for balance

and it this is called Murphys Law

also known as sods law too

Re: Questions That Need Answers

hahaha :D

Right, so another question...
If you take the candy Pop Rocks (do they have Pop Rocks in the UK?) and put them in your mouth, and then drink soda, will your stomach explode?

I think I'm gonna try it.

[PyariCgudia]

Re: Questions That Need Answers

AP chem is fun.

[phatima]

Re: Questions That Need Answers

Chemistry sucks and it can go to hell.

I'm probably taking physics or something i dunno sdjfriejdnkjfarui

@phatima1

If you take the candy Pop Rocks (do they have Pop Rocks in the UK?) and put them in your mouth, and then drink soda, will your stomach explode?

This myth was busted on Discovery channel. They filled a pig's stomach, closest to a human stomach, with pop rocks and then pumped soda in it. The resulting reaction was too slow and not enough pressure was created to burst the stomach, not even 1 psi.

Re: Questions That Need Answers

what a bunch of suckers they tried it on a pig first.
