Did you know that you are made of trillions of cells
-
but only around 200 different types?
-
For example, the cells inside your cheek
-
are made up of stratified
-
squamous
-
epithelium cells
-
designed to handle constant abrasion.
-
These type of cells are not only in your cheeks, but also in your vagina and
-
anus as well.
-
Hey guys, I'm Christine Sydelko and I'm here with ASAP Science and we're talking about why your body is amazing
-
and mine is amazinger.
-
When you are an embryo, the first opening that developed was
-
your anus.
-
That's right, you were once just a butthole.
-
That means you are a Deuterostome
-
and so is a sea urchin.
-
Christine how much gas do you think exist in your anus in one day
-
Science says that today about half a liter of gas exist in your anus
-
and I say that too, I just said it
-
If it feels like too much, don't worry as your brain already
-
does a pretty good job of censoring content. Like your nose
-
Your nose is
-
The region that is blocked by the one eye is visible
-
for the other eye, and the brain constructs a
-
unified image and therefore you ignore your nose
-
but your nose is so powerful. In fact
-
if you convert your nose receptor neurones into binary code
-
it's the equivalent of 46 petabytes
-
that's more information than every movie
-
ever made after 2017. Convert all the cells in
-
your body and will add up to
-
91.44 zettabytes
-
or 10^21 bytes. Scientist hypothesized that during
-
pregnancy you gave some cells to your mum
-
I just gave gratitude
-
This process is called Fetal Maternal...
-
Microchimerism. I think I
-
I got it. This process is called Fetal Maternal Micro...
-
micro...michimisism
-
Microchimerism. Microsoft
-
Scientists has found fetal cells and various maternal tissues
-
that can persist for decades. The reason for this is unclear
-
but one hypothesis is that the baby is trying to increase
-
its chance of survival. When your heart stops, your brain actually
-
knows that you're dead. A study that investigated
