Why do human new born babies have more bones than adults ??

Many of the new born babies " bones " are actually seperate pieces of soft, flexible cartilage that gradually fuse together as they grow.


New born babies born with 270 to 300 " bones ", an adult skeleton has only 206 bones.



Having multiple, seperate skull bones allows the baby's head to compress slightly.  It helps in natural way of pregnancy.


Flexible spots between skull bones provide room for the brain to expand quickly during infancy.


Pliable skeleton helps the infants to absorb the effect of falls and tumbles while they try to learn crawling and walking.


As the person matures, calcium and other minerals harden the soft cartilage to solid bones.


Similar bone segments grow together to form single, larger and stronger structures. 


This is notable in skull, spine and pelvis regions.

Why letter 'u' always comes after letter 'q' ??

 I listed out some words starting with ' q'.

In all these words, 'q’ is followed by letter 'u' !!!



Queen  

    Quiet       

          Quit   

                 Quick  

                        Question 

                               Quality 

                                    Acqua


In all these words, letter 'q' is followed by letter 'u'  !!!



Q always never hangs out alone  !!!



Why ' qu  '  happens 



1. It came from Latin .  

In Latin,, q is always followed by u

When English borrowed tonnes of Latin words, we kept the spelling.




2.  English was influenced by French too  !!! 

      As French also used same letters, English just     k   e   p  t  it .



 

U  follows   Q  because  Roman and French people did it first..

We just kept the habit  !!!



We don't really use Q alone .  It feels wrong to us.

Q always brings U, thats how we learnt it  !!!



It is just a spelling habit, that we inherited   !!!

Bheja Fry question

  Question 


How many times in a day will the hour hand minute hand exactly coincide with each other ??



Answer 


Although it seems like it should be 24 times in a 24 hour clock, they coincide only 22 times during a 24 hour period   !!!



It's because the minute hand moves faster than the hour hand.


In a 12  hour period, the minute hand completes 12 rounds, while the hour hand completes only one  !!!


This means they overlap only 11 times during those 12 hours.


So, for 24 hours, that makes 22 times !!!
