Why coconuts are water proof ??

  Coconuts are water proof because they have 3 natural layers that block water .

1.  Hairy husk

                        Spongy  +   full of hair 

                         Water can't soak through fast and it helps the coconut to float.

2.  Hard shell

                      Like a sealed wooden box. No holes for water to get in.

3. Tight skin inside 

                       Pressed against white meat. Keeps the coconut water sealed in.

Why body feels hot at night ??

  Feeling hot at night because body is trying to cool down  !!!

To prepare for sleep, body widens blood vessels near skin to release internal heat.

This drop in heat makes skin feel warm at night.

Mattresses of synthetic bedding traps body heat instead of letting it escape.

Spicy foods, alcohol and caffeine stimulate sweat glands.

Stress and anxiety increases heart rate and heat.

Taking shower before going to bed and using natural fabrics like cotton and linen optimizes bedding and helps in cooling   !!!

Why are our fingers, different lengths ??

  Different length fingers make the best grip  +  tool hand !!!!

If all fingers were of same length, our hand would be pretty useless !!!

If we try making fist ,  our fingers naturally curl into a curve that matches round things.

Thumb  =  It is a clamp that works against other fingers.

Index  +  Ring  =  They help with  precision and power.

Middle finger  =  Anchor in the centre.

Pinky finger  ≠  It tucks in and adds stability.

This length difference lets the hand to form a power grip.

If.the fingers were equal,  we would just have a paddle  !!!

Our ancestors needed hand for climbing. 

Equal fingers would have made us worse at surviving,making tools etc
