TEARS, A Wonderful drop of water

-

       Crying is an important safety valve, largely because keeping difficult feelings inside — what psychologists call repressive coping — can be bad for our health. Studies have linked repressive coping with a less resilient immune system, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension, as well as with mental health conditions, including stress, anxiety, and depression. Crying has also been shown to increase attachment behavior, encouraging closeness, empathy, and support from friends and family.

      Scientists divide the liquid product of crying into three distinct categories: reflex tears, continuous tears, and emotional tears. The first two categories perform the important function of removing debris such as smoke and dust from our eyes, and lubricating our eyes to help protect them from infection. Their content is 98% water.

     As the water in the tears evaporate, a beautiful never ending fractal pattern is formed which can be observed under microscope. The patterns are made up of electrolytes , proteins and other oils.Each tear forms a different pattern but what happens is when we applied polarizing light to the tears ,they will start to glow with beautiful spectrum of colours. More we cry glorious the colour.

     All tears contain a variety of biological substances (including oils, antibodies and enzymes) suspended in salt water, but as Fisher saw, tears from each of the different categories include distinct molecules as well. Emotional tears, for instance, have been found to contain protein-based hormones including the neurotransmitter leucine enkephalin, a natural painkiller that is released when the body is under stress.

Brain controlling WORM !!

Yes you heard right .There is a worm commonly called Horse Hair worm which is scientifically called  Nematomorpha   which can control the brain of many insects. It is commonly found in damp areas  such as watering troughs, swimming pools, streams, puddles, and cisterns.There are many interesting facts about this worm. The name “horsehair worm” refers to the old belief that they came from horse hairs that fell into water and came to life.     The adult worms are free-living, but the larvae need a host for maturation.The larvae parasites on grasshoppers,crickets,cockroaches and some kind of beetles.When they mature they leave the host body to lay eggs.But the reliefing fact is that they are harmless for humans,pets and livestocks.   They control the brain of insects to reach some places where water is available.This worm will turn the insects into sucidal maniacs!!    A ccording to parasitologist Ben Hanelt of the University of New Mexico,o nce the ...

A story about an extincted animal

       In course of evolution of Earth many species have been extincted.There are many reasons for this extinction.Such as climatic condition,human exploitation,scarcity of food and water ,competition etc.We all know one such animal called Dinosaurs ,which was extincted due to volcanic erruptions as some say.But here I am not talking about dinosaurs , rather I am talking about STELLER'S SEA COW.   Sea cow is a mammal , which is now extinct,  that once  inhabited  nearshore areas of the  Komandor Islands  in the  Bering Sea .They were first discovered by Arctic explorers.It belonged to the order sirenian ,which is an order of four leg aquatic mammal. The order Sirenia was named after the  Sirens  of  Greek mythology , and sirenians are believed to be the basis for the  mermaid   myth . Modern sirenians have two front limbs in the form of flippers but no hind limbs; even the pelvis is vestigial, and there are ...

What are the causes ?    Various factors like emotional stress, physical exercise and excess use of caffeine and other stimulants,bright lights ,sudden noise causes sleep strarts.   A study at the University of Colorado suggested that it is evolutionary, stretching back to our primate ancestors." A reflex of the brain's misinterpritation of muscle relaxation with the onse...
