21 Interesting Facts of Science that Will Blow Your Mind!

Who doesn't love fun and fascinating, interesting facts in science? Here is a collection of amazing scientific facts that are hard to believe happen in our daily lives, if you have the time.

In today's world, science is essential. Computers, satellites, X-rays, plastic surgery, electricity, the Internet, photography, mobile phones, and other important inventions have not only made life easier and better for us, but they have also enabled us to deal with disease more effectively. In short, science is a great asset to humanity, and to civilization.

Interesting Science Facts You Probably Didn’t Know

If you grew up in school believing that science is a difficult and complex subject, then these amazing science facts will surely surprise you.

We have learned some incredible science in school, such as the periodic table, DNA replication, Newton’s law of gravity, and Einstein’s theory of relativity.

All these fascinating topics that we learn during our education have a scientific basis.

But science is much more than evolution and inventions; it will surprise you with interesting facts about our everyday life.

1. Food has no taste without saliva.

After all, we need saliva to taste our food, which is one of the most surprising scientific truths.

Food contains molecules that must dissolve in saliva in order for us to taste the food. The receptors in our taste buds are able to sense the molecules in food once they have dissolved.

2. Helium's Effect on Gravity

Did you know by now that gravity has no effect on helium? Helium becomes superfluid, or able to move without friction.

If it is cooled to just a few degrees below its boiling point, or 452 degrees Fahrenheit (-269 degrees Celsius). It has the ability to rise up the sides of glass…

Also, it can seep through molecule-thin cracks in a container. Helium is the second most abundant element in the universe, among other amazing scientific facts.

3. The human stomach can dissolve razor blades better.

The human stomach can digest razor blades easily. It may sound terrifying, but science has proven that the human stomach is more capable of dissolving razor blades.

According to a study, the scale used to classify acids is from 0 to 14. Remember, the lower the pH level, the stronger the acid.

It can dissolve even a sharp razor blade, did you know this, if it is immersed in stomach acid for a few hours?

If you ever accidentally swallow a razor blade, then you do not need to be afraid or panic because your stomach can dissolve it easily.

4. A cloud weighs about one million tonnes.

The volume of a cloud is typically about 1 km³, and its density is about 1.003 kg per m³—this density is about 0.4% less than the surrounding air (this is how clouds float).

Did you know Giraffes are thirty times more likely to be struck by lightning than humans?

Actually, there are only five well-documented cases of lightning strikes on giraffes from 1996 to 2010.

However, since the population of the species was only 140,000 at the time, this equates to about 0.003 lightning strikes per thousand giraffes each year. Did you know that this is 30 times higher than the same human mortality rate?

5. Your brain is eating itself all the time.

Phagocytosis is the process by which cells engulf smaller cells or molecules, a process called phagocytosis…

The brain engulfs the small cells or molecules, consuming them to eliminate them from the body.

Don't worry! In fact, phagocytosis helps preserve your gray matter and is not toxic.

6. The role of nutrition in brain food function?

Nutritional psychiatry: How the food you eat affects your brain—Harvard Health. Taking lots of foods that are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants feeds the brain and reduces its vulnerability to oxidative stress—the waste (free radicals) that results whenever the body uses oxygen to metabolize, which can damage cells.

The ocean, not trees, tiny aquatic plants called phytoplankton live near the surface of the water, drift with the currents, and generally do what plants do: make oxygen as a byproduct of taking in sunlight and carbon dioxide 24 you far after you die any gases being held inside by clenched muscles get released, gases also build up from bacteria, decomposition so there's more where that came from...

9. Do people actually avoid information?

That threatens their happiness and worldview, they will surround themselves with things they agree with, basically creating their own reality, according to researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. People often avoid information that could help them to make better decisions, so it is not those uninformed people; It is actually all of us to one degree or another...

10. Identical twins do not have identical fingerprints.

Identical twins are different in terms of fingerprints. You can't blame your sins on your twin, after all. This is because environmental factors during fetal development (umbilical cord length, position in the womb, and rate of finger growth) impact your fingerprint.
