which is the most deadly common parasite in humans?

[CooperO 7,956]

I meaned hairS <----- SSSSSS

 

We used to have them to keep us warm, just like cats, dogs etc. But we started to wear some kind of clothing, so the hairs became useless. They started to disappear. The hairs we have now are only remains.

The function of goosebumps is to make the hairs stand up so that air (which isolates very good if not moving) would form a layer around the body. With only so little hairs goosebumps became useless. It is likely , as kilaz said, that those useless hairs will disappear in the future.

And FYI, if you are a guy, hairs are very manly in my opinion. (if you are a girl, just shave, wax, laser etc...)

which is the most deadly common parasite in humans?

[niknik655 2]

Rat parasite

[LiquidGold 1,370]

---

without question this is the mosquito it kills 100,000's of people each year and spreads infectious disease to millions of people, it must be noted that it is only female mosquito the bites human for blood which they need to reproduce

[LiquidGold 1,370]

Why does e = mc (squared) ?

--

energy= mass x the speed of light squared

why does e = mc (squared) is the title of a book by prof Brian cox an English professor if you wish to have a funny and enlightened answer I suggest you read the book, he is exceptional in his explanations so that even I can understand it. There is no short answer for this question and it would take several days for me to fully explain it here. Please use wikipeadia and type mass energy equivalence for your search or just e=mc2

The mosquito isn't the dangerous parasite, it's only the vector for the dangerous parasites, like Plasmodium vivax, ovale and falciparum (Malaria).

 

But pigsrule, I don't think there is an exclusive answer to your question, because the definition of "most deadly" isn't clear. Do you mean which parasite kills the most people in total or only in a specific area, kills them the fastest etc.?

Yea i know its manly, but my hands were look a lot better before i get them.

And no, I'm not a girl. Urbi is acctually Urban, I live in Slovenia, so Urban is a name. But I prefer Urbi

the one which is really common and has killed the most people in the world

[CooperO 7,956]

the one which is really common and has killed the most people in the world

I think that would be Plasmodium (which causes malaria).

Is there any chance Dinosaur can life again ?

 

there has been talk a while ago that African Natives had seen and described a animal that could have been a dinosaur. they have also found paintings by native americans,, that aren't so ''very old'' and they have actually found some blood cells on a dinosaur bone. dinosaurs didnt ''die out'' so many million years I believe. and i think some Japanese where working on a frozen mamoth trying to make it alive ^.^

anecdotal "evidence" is just that, this goes into the realms of the fish gets 2 feet longer by the time you got home at the end of a days fishing, also Aboriginal and first Nation people often over paint old cave and rock drawing to keep the story alive this means that they change over time. It has also been known that non authorised people i.e. vandals do over paint old rock art destroying what was there, so it will be quite difficult to use not so old pictures as you say to verify any real claims of modern dinosaurs.

The hairy mammoth is well documented to have been found whole and regularly they are discovered in the permafrost regions of Russia often 200 or more parts are found each spring which get removed by trophy hunters for profit before they can be studied, some do however get saved for academic study. The key is finding viable DNA from which to clone. Even though its well documented that frozen microbes can and do indeed come back to life after decades of hibernation in the excessive colds of the Arctic regions, they have very special blood concentrations of what is essentially ethyl glycol or anti freeze to survive the minus 60 and lower temperatures there. If one extrapolates from data on other types of flesh we can make the assumption that mammoths flesh will freeze starting at minus 15 degrees, cellular damage and dna damage does occur loosely speaking because ice formation is crystalline which breaks cell walls. There are other very complicated things in play here that also render dna non viable---- I have to say be no means am I an expert in this field-- so if anybody can add more please do

on outer space there is no gravity?

Yes there is. And you know that yourself too.

i did know that actually

i posted this to see how smart are you
