In humans, 1-6 cc of semen, containing 60-100 million sperm cells per cc, is discharged per ejaculation. These many eggs are kept and protected by one male alone at night, and by several females in turns by day. The sesame that we commonly consume as food is the seed that has fallen from the matured shell. There are currently many serious environmental issues such as the rising temperatures due to carbon dioxide emissions (global warming) and the destruction of the ozone layer by chlorofluorocarbons. Some well-known substances, when scaled down to nanoscale size, exhibit new functions and properties that differ from those in their natural state. The ratio of the earth (1 meter) to a marble (1 nanometer) is a popularly used example. Their larvae frequently occur in animal feces and decayed organic material. As the shape of a snow crystal reveals the path in which it has grown and fallen, we can know of the weather conditions (temperature and humidity) of the upper-level air by observing the snow crystal itself.

Carriers, of genetic material consisting of DNA and protein, which communicate information (genetic) that passes on the characteristics of the parents (previous generation). Smaller cells are easily visible under a light microscope. Rulers are marked with millimeters as the smallest unit, and as the objects become more minute, from hair to fleas, we lose our ability to perceive them. Theories preceding a concept, as long as they are not mistaken, should lead the way for the realization of appropriate technology at lighting speed. In about 5 billion years, the Sun is expected to deplete its hydrogen supply and become a red giant, expand and then finally cool down. An elementary particle composing the atomic nucleus. It is owing to this immune system mechanism that we do not contract chickenpox or the measles twice.

Most of the image comes from the Hubble space telescope - a space telescope that was launched into orbit 38 years ago. Fun Fact: Photons, gluons and gravitons lack any mass, which makes them capable of traveling at the speed of light. there was approved a new common standard for the global community, based upon a value calculated from a giant object we all share alike, the Earth. Its construction started in 1248 after being commissioned by the archbishop, but required centuries for its completion. of the visible and invisible world. The hydrogen atom (protium), having the simplest structure of all atoms, is composed of a single electron orbiting a nucleus consisting of a single proton. Following the discovery of Uranus in 1781, it was found that its actual observed orbit deviated from the theoretical orbit derived from Newton's law of gravity. A newborn baby rabbit is already fully furred, with eyes open, and is able to walk immediately. In recent years, the seven-spotted ladybird has been increasingly utilized as a means of pest control taking advantage of its feeding habit, by artificially letting them loose in fields.

The Solar System was formed about 4.6 billion years ago when interstellar clouds, which were floating in space, were pulled together by gravity and began to rotate, pulling mass into the center to form a primordial solar nebula. Since the development of the electron microscope in the 1950's, we have become able to visually confirm the existence of the virus instead of merely hypothesizing about it in the experimental world. However, given a CCD or other device of the same size, increasing the number of pixels decreases the size of each element and thus reduces the amount of received light, leading to noise in the recorded image. They are sanitary pests who pass on pathogenic agents by sucking blood from humans and others using their long probosces. Recently, however, the progress of computer-based technology has allowed us to completely exceed this limit.
