How old was carolus linnaeus when he got married?

Linnaeus married to Sara Elisabeth Moraea in 1739


How can humans think independently if you are only made of atoms and molecules?

This is a very philosophoical question if you think about it. First of all, have you heard of this chain.Subparticles make atomsAtoms make moleculesMolecules make oraganells, energy, and all necessitiesOraganelles make cellsCells working together make a tissueTissues working together make an organA group of organs working together makes an organ systemA group of organ systems working together makes an organism.There is moreA group of organisms working together is a niche.Niches to communityCommunities to ecosystemEcosystems to biosphereBioshperes to the planet.Anyway, the brain is just made of atoms in general, but the cells are the memory keepers. Molecules in the cell all help in keeping information. Memory is not stored as words, but as codes that are kept by the cell. When the memory is needed, it is decoded and recalled. Since our brains can store more information, we can evolve ourselves without forgetting much. We build on our own and we evolve as a group. In summary, the atoms make molecules which make/help cells remember codes.


What was carolus linnaeus contribution to biology?

Carl von Linnaeus is credited to have created the system of binomial nomenclature for the classification of living beings. He also published important books such as Systema Naturae, Species Plantarum, Genera Plantarum and Systema Plantarum.


What happens when a person gets struck by lightning?

Your body will be under direct influence of the strike for approximately 3 milliseconds.1/3 of you will die from cardiac arrestyou mayHave one or both of your eardrums burst.Experience a loss of consciousness.Have 3rd degree burns from metal you were in contact with at the time of the strike such as jewelry as well as very small, but deep burns at the entry and exit wound sites. (The temperature of a lightning strike is about 28,000 degrees Celsius and 50,000 Fahrenheit). These burns will often take the shape of Lichtenburg Figures under the skin: Experience complete (but temporary) paralysis.Experience bursting capillaries under your skin from shockwave or current.In addition:If you happen to be listening to AM radio you'll be unable to get reception for the duration of the strike as lightning severely interferes with amplitude modulation The heat of lightning that strikes sandy areas of the ground underneath you may fuse the soil or sand into glass channels called fulguritesYour clothing may become shredded, torn off or singed.Early on, survivors will complain of intense headaches, ringing in the ears, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other post-concussion types of symptoms.i am only 13 and i love lighting and electricity and what it can doYour body will be under direct influence of the strike for approximately 3 milliseconds.1/3 of you will die from cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, inhibition of your brainstem's respiratory centers or just from a catastrophic, multisystem failure.The majority of you will: Have one or both of your eardrums burst.Experience a loss of consciousness.Have 3rd degree burns from metal you were in contact with at the time of the strike such as jewelry as well as very small, but deep burns at the entry and exit wound sites. (The temperature of a lightning strike is about 28,000 degrees Celsius and 50,000 Fahrenheit). These burns will often take the shape of Lichtenburg Figures under the skin: Link with pics.)Experience complete (but temporary) paralysis.Experience bursting capillaries under your skin from shockwave or current.In addition:** If you happen to be listening to AM radio you'll be unable to get reception for the duration of the strike as lightning severely interferes with amplitude modulation. The heat of lightning that strikes sandy areas of the ground underneath you may fuse the soil or sand into glass channels called fulgurites.Your clothing may become shredded, torn off or singed.Early on, survivors will complain of intense headaches, ringing in the ears, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other post-concussion types of symptoms.Long-term effects that 70% of you have to look forward to:Numbness/Weakness in limbs.Sleep and memory disorders and problems concentrating.Storm Phobia combined with Post Traumatic Stress disorder.Development of seizure-like activity several weeks or even months after the injury.Possible personality changes because of frontal lobe damage and increased irritability and anger.Other Things to Consider:If you can hear thunder you are within range of a ground strike.The voltage of a typical industrial electrical shock is 20 to 63 kilovolts, while a lightning strike delivers about 300 kilovolts.Roy Sullivan has the record for being the human who has been struck by lightning the most times. Working as a park ranger, Roy was struck seven times over the course of his 35 year career. He lost his big toe and suffered multiple injuries to the rest of his body.On average, lightning strikes the earth about 100 times every second.By counting the seconds between the flash and the thunder and dividing by 3, you can estimate your distance from the strike in kilometers. (By 5 for miles.)Your chances of this happening are 1 in 280,000.Not necessarily. Many people survive being struck by lightning. They may be left with severe burns and a lot of time in the hospital, but it is possible to survive it. Some are left with brain damage, though. See the Related Link below.You could get away with just minor burns but out off 100%, I would say about 80% it is possible. Out of 100% probably 20% you could get away with it.No, According to Storm Data, a National Weather Service publication, over the last 30 years the U.S. has averaged 58 reported lightning fatalities per year. Due to under reporting, the figures are more realistically at least 70 deaths per year. Only about 10% of people who are struck by lightning are killed, leaving 90% with various degrees of disability.A. Chances are you'll survive. About 20% of all people hit by lightning will die. Men are struck four times more than women. However, this may be because they are more likely to be swinging metal objects around in thunderstorms!�Q. How does the lightning affect usA. Well, you won't burst into flames or be reduced to a pile of ashes, as in a cartoon. The lighting is more likely to 'flash' all over you and blow off your clothes, but there will be few, if any, external signs of injury.�The main cause of immediate death is cardiac or cardiopulmonary arrest. If you survive, however, your nervous system - including your brain - may be damaged.�Survivors typically have memory problems and difficulty processing information, which makes it impossible for them to do more than one thing at a time. Some make suffer from personality changes and become irritable. There may also be headaches, tinnitus, nausea, dizziness and insomnia.�Q. What are my chances of being hit by lightningA. Higher than you'd think. We don't tend to take being hit by lightning very seriously as a danger: the phrase 'as likely as getting struck by lightning' means that there's virtually no chance at all. However the odds of being struck are around 1 in 600,000.�Q. How can I avoid being hit by lightningA. The first thing to remember is that if you can hear thunder, you're close enough to be in danger. So go indoors at the faintest rumble of thunder. The best places to shelter are enclosed buildings, or cars and buses - but don't touch anything metal. The worst are bus shelters, porches or anywhere open.�Q. Can you be injured indoorsA. Yes. Lightning may strike buildings and the current can travel along wiring. People who have been using the phone indoors have been injured by lighting. There's also a risk if you're near wiring, pipes or other metal objects.�Q. What should you do if you're stuck outdoorsA. Move at least two metres away from any tall objects and crouch down until it's safe to get away.�Q. Where can I find out moreA. Visit the Lightning Strike Survivor's website.
