It is said that around 90% of the cells in a human body are symbiotic bacteria living thanks to us.
When we die, do most of them also die? Or do they manage to survive without us and find a new 'home human'?
And opposite, when and how do we get all those bacteria after conception? Do we get...
Generally pressure in a liquid changes with height at which we measure. But still blood pressure remains almost same throughout the body. How is this possible?
We know that Force= Mass x Acceleration. When the force applied on a body is 0 the accelaration produced in the body is also 0. (F=m a). So, what will be the mass of a body on which no force is applied and no acceleration is produced?
