– The contraction of tiny muscles at the base of hair follicles causes goosebumps. This assists animals in warming up faster by standing each hair on end and forming a layer of insulation.
– Most people only hear the speech as soundwaves travelling across the air, and a recording includes only these signals. However, we hear our own voices as a mixture of normal sounds and low-frequency sounds transmitted through our skull bones.
– When something incredibly cold comes into contact with the roof of your mouth, the nerve center situated there overreacts.
– In both cases, UV rays from the sun break down melanin, the pigment that gives the hair and skin their color. The difference is that hair consists of dead cells, while skin consists of living cells.
– Children are only beginning to become acquainted with the world around them, and their memories must store more information. As a result, their year has more new and unfamiliar “events” than a grown-up’s.
– Pigeons that congregate in urban areas have established a preference for the rugged terrain where there are no trees. It means they didn’t inherit their rural or jungle relatives’ tree-perching reflex.

– As you sleep, the brain’s synapses are optimized. This ensures that the memories become more stable, and the pieces of knowledge you’ve picked up during the day transfer from your short-term to long-term memory.
