Reason of yawning

Image
                       Yawning A yawn is an involuntary reflex where the mouth is opened wide, and the lungs take in a lot of air. The air is then exhaled slowly. 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. A yawn causes a big intake of air and a faster heartbeat, which could theoretically mean that it is pumping more oxygen through the body. So a yawn may be simply designed to help clea...

Why do we feel thirsty after eating sweets?

Why do we feel thirsty after eating sweet?                        Sugar is a concentrated sweet . That means all the water has been removed from it to concentrate it. Therefore when you eat it tastes good, but you did not get the water that would be present if IT WAS NOT a concentrated sweet, therefore you are thirsty afterwards. When we eat sugar or sweet dishes, it first goes to your  stomach , and then into your bloodstream." Once the sugar particles reach your blood, water moves out of your cells and into your blood, to restore balance in your blood. As your cells lose water, they send signals to the brain indicating that they need more H2O.  We feel the urge to sip on something.               This [chain of events] happens pretty quickly, “Since glucose is absorbed by the  gut  and into the bloodstream fairly fast, you might feel thirsty within 5 or ...

Why does chopping an onion make us cry? Stop tears

Image
                        Why does chopping an onion make us cry? Ever cut an onion and started tearing up? Most people do. It turns out when you cut an onion, it releases a gas called Sulphur-oxide. When mixed with certain enzymes in the onion, it creates a sulfur gas. These gases then get to your eyes and create a mild acid which irritates the eyes.                  Normally, your body would signal you to close your eyes. This, of course, is not a good idea if you are cutting an onion. The next best thing your eyes can do is to make tears to protect the eyes. Rubbing your eyes is a bad idea, since your hands are likely full of the tear making onion juice. Stop the Tears: 1-     Burning Candle: My favorite trick is to light a large candle near the cutting board. The flame will help burn off the sulfur compounds released by the onion. Or, if you have a gas stove...
