Bro,why is indian snake's scientific name Naja Naja? |
0 | ||
Subho a dit : First of all, its not called scientific name its called Binomial name/nomenclature.. (There is a huge diff. between Scientific name and binomial naming) okay? and yes binomial names are written in the format : 'Genus Species' and Naja is a species of venomous snakes they are also known as cobras maybe (not sure on that point) and the Indian Cobra actually is reffered to as Naja Naja which indicates that it is a Cobra which has a potential amount or concentration of venom (im not sure of all this written matter..it may be 80% true) (sorry for my rude approach) |

Oh ok.... Another one: Why is a electron lighter than a proton even though amount of charge is same but opposite. |
0 | ||
Subho a dit : This is how it goes..Antiparticle and particle have the same mass and different enthaply or electromagnetic charge this is seen in the collision of an electron and a positron(antiparticle of electron with positive charge and same mass) resulting in release of gamma protons and annhilating both of the collided particles which also results in conservation of momentum and linear momentum as well..whereas when its considering mass of electron and proton...electron is a sub-atomic particle and a lepton as well perhaps the one of the most lightest because it is an elementary particle too and an elementary particle's composition and structure is not known...and the proton on the other hand, is not an elementary particle but instead made up of 2 up quarks and one down quark with gluons holding them as well..so naturally proton is much more heavier..and as for the charge, We consider that electron have a negative charge just to maintain equilibrium with atom..We know that opposite charges attract and since we know composition of protons we found out that since a proton is made up of 2 up quarks(which have a charge of +2/3) and 1 down quark (which have a charge of -1/3) which totally results in a charge of +1 [2/3+2/3+(-1/3)=1], as shown xD..so a proton's charge is +1 and since electron seems to be attracted to proton we found out its negative :) so a proton is +ve and electron is -ve even though electron is lighter..i know im smart xD |

Don't be too proud :p. And Okay, thanks I get it now *-* . |
0 | ||
Subho a dit : lol i meant that as a joke...but i reckon ur right in a way, im a little proud. Have to deal with it. :) and yes did u understand everything?? cos even if there is one minor small doubt..clear it. |

Winjid a dit : Nah, you taught me well. Well here's another question, hope you don't mind xD I heard that RNA is a crude form of DNA / a prior stage . Is it true? If yes, explain. If no, why? |
0 | ||
Well, lets start with wat is DNa and rna..so here it is DNA - Deoxyribonucleic acid and RNA-Ribonucleic acid..Dna contain genetic information which is vital for all living organisms whereas Rna is involved in protein synthesis and sometimes in genetic information..(in early primitive lifeforms Rna managed the genetic information)...the thing is that Rna contains ribose and dna contains deoxyribose..Dna also known as double helix and Rna is actually a single stranded long chained helix..Dna can replicate on its own whereas Rna can only be synthesized in Dna..so actually if u go to see it seems that Rna has actually predominantly been in primitive creatures before DNA but after arrival of DNa from Rna (i dont know hw did this happen during first complex life being formed on earth from simple cells :Darwin's theory:) Rna lost its property to replicate itself and now has to rely on Dna for its replication and division..so according to Modern times, DNA doesn't need Rna for genetical information but RNA very much need Dna for its synthesis..so it is yes as well as no.. |

Does wizards or witchs exsist? Does dinosours exsist? |

Kristuuux a dit : Ma belle fille, There are many approaches to which we can look at the question above...and yea...I know the Chemist has to prove it scientifically right??? ok so lets go :).....Well, according to The law of conservation of Energy, Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed...It can only be converted from one form to another and Total energy in the Universe remains constant...so if u think Wizards and Witches that u see in Harry potter exist then perhaps ur wrong...if we consider Magic/spells as energy...then they would probably not exist bcoz of the above law (excluding explanation as in magic is converted to energy from our minds and then casted from the user's wand to express it) usually those who believe in spellcasting say,"Spells are forms of energy that defy all forms of natural laws of Science.." even J.K Rowling says so...but according to me and my perspective as A chemist i don't believe in Wizards and Witches that can cast high energy spells....but some Animists (Religion of people wherein they believe every thing that exists on earth has a spirit) believe that, these Spirits watch over us all time and decide when to reward or punish us..so some Animists claim that they can see these Spirits and even claim that they can please them by doing some sacrifices..often called Witch doctors, Shamans (not the ones in tfm),etc..so ACCORDING TO SCIENCE, WIZARDS AND WITCHES DO NOT EXIST...but ACCORDING TO ANIMISTS, WIZARDS AND WITCHES DO EXIST....there are even some group of people that actually practise WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY....so that was some of the major opinions that are famous about Wizards and Witches....it is ur choice to choose which one to follow Science or People's testaments... :) and about the Dinosaurs...OF COURSE THEY EXISTED...Science and some Paleontologists claim that they existed for 165 million years and died just 65 million years ago....their existence is clearly proved by the Fossils Paleontologists excavated :)....The Bible and The Koran, (don't know about the other Holy Books) too speak of Dinosaurs existence but they speak that Dinosaurs just existed a few ten thousand years ago...bcoz of Creationism.....So if ur A DARWINIST, DINOSAURS EXISTED 65 MILLION YEARS AGO but if ur a CREATIONIST THEN U TOO WOULD BELIEVE DINOSAURS EXISTED BUT A FEW THOUSAND YEARS AGO...I have done my duty writing about this..IT IS UR CHOICE TO CHOOSE NOW :) |

So dinousours dont exsist now? And i belive wizards only if i will see them in real life.. |
0 | ||
Kristuuux a dit : yes in a way...Dinousaurs do not exist but their descendants i.e Turtles, Crocs...and other forms of reptiles and some amphibians are.... living among us :) |

Question: I don't know what I gonna believed, Science or Bible? |
0 | ||
Well, I cannot make anyone change their beliefs, but i can always put forth my opinions . . . First of all, It is not Science that opposes the Bible, in fact every Scientific law that has been proved, actually is written in The Bible... It is some kinds of scientists that oppose God and the Bible, For instance, During world war I . . . nobody knew about different types of bloods i.e A, B, AB, and O . . . so when casualties took place and the wounded needed blood transfusion . .. Army Medics used to just take a random soldiers blood and transfuse it to the patient .. which actually killed him bcoz of the battle of different White blood cells, within the wounded's body .. then later a Austrian medic called Karl Landsteiner wondered why did this happen? .. and he reveals that after reading and meditating on a verse from the Bible he discovered these 4 blood types and was awared a Nobel prize.. ... (I'm really sorry i do not remember which verse of the Bible it was from :(, but it is in ... John 6 :53-57 u may check it at home if you have a Bible) But on the other Hand, Scientists who oppose the Bible come up with theories against it .. and do not have much evidence to support theirs ... Inspite of this, The Scientists who believe the Bible, have proved their theories right ... such an example is the one of Neils' Bohr atomic model, His atomic model is considered to be the exact and most precise one.. and he firmly believes the Bible .. I do not say so... He says it ... and then there is the example of Kepler and Copernicus, They didn't believe the Roman catholic church but they believed the Bible .. The roman catholic church at those times preached the wrong messages so that they could gain power and common man didn't know that bcoz THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN IN LATIN INITIALLY and common man didn't know Latin except for Copernicus (Biblical Historians say that Copernicus came up with his Heliocentric theory i.e. The law in which The Sun is the center of the solar system by reading Joshua 10 :13 .. who knew it and told the clergy that they were Liars and False men.. he was not accepted and his theories were banned but Galileo proved his theory right in 1610 A.D. we all know it .. see, according to me, Science and Bible are interconnected but it is your decision to make .. are they interconnected for good... or against each other :) concluding by saying, "All scientific laws have been proved mathematically and with enough proof, NO SCIENTIFIC LAW HAS EVER CONTRADICTED THE BIBLE, Peoples theories may contradict, but the laws haven't." |

what is absolute nothing this means no light no energy no mass just nothing NOTHING does it exist? is there something like nothing ? |
0 | ||
Paduman a dit : ok ... lets begin with what we need to show to prove the existence of nothing, first of all ... We live in a post-modernistic age, and in this age people have different opinions about the same topic... so naturally there are gonna be different approaches to this topic ... I shall discuss two of the apporoaches of proving absoloute Nothing's existence in detail and one minor approach too .... the 1st approach is the Path of Mathematics, well suppose a set exists to prove the existence of Nothing ... let this set be named A ... therefore, A = {0} .... but but Zero and absolute nothing are 2 entirely different concepts, Therefore A = {}....that is a null set and explains existence of Nothing in a mathematical form ... Therefore, the concept of Null set still exists... but mathematicians say,"A null set is a FINITE set." therefore if u wish to see absolute nothingness... it isn't infinite but has an amount of something which doesn't make sense ... How could Nothingness be a Finite set? ... a finite set has a specific amount of data within it .. nothing has nothing at all! that was the point of opinion of Maths Now the Path of Physics, Physics is that part of Natural Science that deals with the Physical appearance of Matter, heard of vacuums, empty spaces in the universe, Dark matter, etc. well they exactly are examples of Virtual Nothingness... but they aren't exactly empty even if they are void of particles, laws of nature, forces, etc.. they have some volume and we feel their existence via many other different processes ... suppose 2 particles with mass 'm1'and 'm2' exist in a vacuum ( considering vacuum as the nearest form of nothingness 'by definition') experience a force 'F' and are separated by each other by distance 'r'... now considering those bodies have finite values of mass and they keep decreasing gradually (This is physically impossible, just consider it) until their body masses reach zero ... and once they do this they actually become nothing ... if a body has mass zero, it doesn't exist ... but as said in the mathematics, 0 still has value ... they contradict each other... Nothingness will never be resolved cause it gets more and more complicated the deeper u get in ... A minor concept of Nothingness i.e. walking the path of Chemistry, we have a concept in Chemistry called Absolute Zero ... it is the Zero of the Kelvin scale of temperature, and is -273.14 degree Celsius...and is the lowest temperature to be available... There are very few claims or none that such a temperature has been attained or not in labs around the world.. the reason behind telling us this is that even if Nothing exists it will be very hard to prove or it may have been proved but may have not enough proof to prove it's existence ... hope my point of view helped .. plz do say if u don't understand anything, or are still unclear .. All the best! |
