Just a few of the questions you want answered, but you might not want to ask.
1.
Palm sweat can be triggered by two separate things: your body trying to control its temperature and the emotional stress you might be experiencing. Both of these things are closely linked.
2.
Simply put, your brain controls this act. When you become very stressed, anxious or scared your frontal lobe can sometimes be overridden which can make you feel the need to pee at that moment or more frequently.
3.
Coffee can cause muscle contractions along the final part of your intestine, which can jumpstart your need to use the restroom. This happens to about 50% of people that drink coffee.
4.
On a basic level your brain thinks it is being poisoned, usually due to a mismatch in body motion/balance in relation to your vision. Therefore your brain wants to rid this intoxication from your body (aka vomiting).
5.
One theory is that you might simply feel more comfortable in the shower. It a relaxing place and you are by yourself. Another theory is that the acoustics are better in your bathroom, so the chances of you sounding like an amazing singer are higher.
6.
Urine is actually about 95% water along with some sodium and Chloride ions, all of which the ocean has already. Urea is a carbon based compound that is also found in our pee. This is not found in the ocean but hasn't been proven bad for the ocean.
7.
The short answer is no, you cannot simply die from being old. But old cells can mean weaker cells which can mean you won't fight off diseases or infections as well as someone who is younger might be able too.
8.
When you have a bruise or scab, we sometimes pick it or poke it as a way of managing the pain. Other receptors on the body are triggered when we feel this intense pain so quickly. Activating other receptors allows for a moment of relief.
9.
Nostrils are always splitting the amount of work they have to do, which is why you feel only one nostril being clogged at once. Your nervous system controls and regulates this body function.
10.
All warts come from some form of HPV, less contagious forms can cause warts on common areas of the body.
11.
Alcohol more easily causes dehydration, it dilates blood vessels which can result in headaches, and it also increases stomach acid while decreasing the rate the stomach empties itself which can lead to vomiting. BOOM. HUNGOVER.
