During this time, the eardrums stretch, and the eyes may also close tight, causing them to water.                             Reasons  of Yawning: The biggest reason for yawning is that when the brain gets tired of doing a lot of work, it doesn't get enough oxygen and it doesn't want it to fit perfectly if it can work properly. Due to which the brain does not get all the oxygen it needs. A respiratory function   Yawning may be a function of breathing. Yawns may be more likely when the blood needs oxygen.

Bees produce honey from the sugary secretions of plants or from secretions of other insects, by regurgitation, enzymatic activity, and water evaporation.

Osmosis: Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent (water) molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration. Main Reason The water content of honey is less than fungi and bacteria and the honey have high solute concentration so the water from fungus and bacteria move to the honey and th...
