The thigh bone is stronger than concrete. The thigh bone is called femur and. It only is it the strongest bone in the body, it is also the longest bone in the body. Because the fumur is strong, it takes a large force to break or fracture it - usually a car accident or fall from high up.

Your bones are composed of 31% water. Also your bones pound for pound are 4 times stronger than concrete. A muscle called the diaphragm controls human breathing process. So the bone is stronger than some steel frames.

We have essential nutrients, primary nutrients, secondary nutrients and micro nutrients. The essentials are hydrogen, carbon and oxygen because those are the atoms used to grow most of the plants, especially their anatomy, and the cellulose which is a carbohydrate. We can't eat and digest them but rabbits can because rabbits have got an appendix with bugs in them that can break it down.

DYK❓ Neurologists use NMRI (nuclear magnetic resonance imaging) to check where the hydrogen atoms are inside your body without harming you and your cells, it's very nice and user-friendly but expensive. There's another trick to this since they use very large magnets in radio magnetic imaging , so you must take off your jewellery since the magnets attract metals.

Do you know where the saying ‘It’s raining cats and dogs” comes from?

In the 17th Century, homes had thatched roofs in which domestic animals such as cats and dogs would like to hide. In heavy rain, the animals would either be washed out of the thatch, or rapidly abandon it for better shelter, many would be found floating down the streets so it would seem to be raining cats and dogs.
