Shawn Healey | Dragon KOI Project Day 39 of 365: SUPER SERIOUS FACTS

Are any facts useless? You sometimes hear "My heads full of useless information." Personally, I think that many of what might be called useless facts are pretty interesting, and to get to the point that the final "fact" is presented took much more work than is realized. Just for fun, here are some "useless facts" that had to take quite a bit of work!
Just for fun, we keep them anatomy based...

• The eye makes movements 50 times every second.
• Polar bear fur is transparent, not white.
• Children have more taste buds than adults.
• An ant's sense of smell is stronger than a dog's.
• Your nose can remember 50,000 different scents.
• Whenever a pregnant woman suffers from organ damage like heart attach, the fetus sends stem cells to the organ helping to repair it.
• Brown eyes are blue underneath, and you can actually get a surgery to turn brown eyes blue.
• When you blush, the lining of your stomach also turns red.
• When a person cries and the first drop of tears come from the right side, its happiness, if it is from the left eye, it's pain.
• Only 2% of the Earth's population naturally has green eyes.
• Goldfish don't have stomachs.
• At rest, your brain burns one fifth of a calorie per minute. 
• The Mona Lisa has not eyebrows.
• The name for the space between the eyebrows is "nasion".
• Frogs cannot swallow with their eyes open.

Just think how much thought, research, nights awake went into figuring this "useless Information"! We should all be so interested...

Until tomorrow...
