Working underwater was always tricky. Before every dive we’d remind ourselves ‘alert or dead.’ But recently I’d become distracted … sloppy… inattentive. All the things I’d trained against. I never should have let her go… and my mind was on her instead of on staying alive at 60 meters down. …

Most of you reading this are really, really smart people, and you know better than to take me seriously when I throw my opinions about prairie madness out there, possibly ill-founded opinions. But should you take me seriously? As I dig deeper into this topic, I start to wonder. As…

Abstract: The interrelation between animals and plants is one of the most fascinating topics in science. These two groups of organisms are intricately connected in various ways, forming different types of symbiotic relationships. Plants provide food, shelter, and oxygen to animals, while also benefiting from the pollination and dispersal of…

Learnt this today from the Huberman Labs podcast. This is about why we need both Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. So when we breathe, the oxygen gets into our lungs. From there, it gets stuck to Hemoglobin which is then responsible to take it to the various tissues or organs that need oxygen. Now Hemoglobin acts like a cage. It jails the oxygen inside this cage before transporting it. To release the oxygen from this cage, our body needs carbon-dioxide. It is the CO2 which releases the oxygen at the time of need.
