This was certainly a surprise to us! Each egg white and yolk contains 3 grams of protein. So, while egg whites are traditionally associated with protein, they don't have a significant advantage over their yellow counterpart. The main distinction is in the number of calories. A single yolk contains 3 grams of protein for 60 calories, whereas an egg white contains 3 grams of protein for only 15 calories.

Hours of hard effort were necessary for the study that earned Marie Curie her first Nobel Prize. She and her husband had to show multiple samples of new elements to prove they had discovered them by breaking down ore into its chemical components. The area, according to Curie, was hot in the summer and draughty in the winter, with a glass roof that didn't entirely shelter them from the rain. After visiting the Curies' shed to witness where radium was discovered, the renowned German scientist Wilhelm Ostwald. Because their usual labs were too small to support the procedure, they relocated their operations to an old shed behind the school where Pierre worked.

By sowing this unusual plant, the soil's physio-chemical characteristics are altered, increasing the levels of nitrogen and potassium. For these plants, the ideal soil conditions are loose and loamy, well-moisturized, and extremely humid.

Taste receptor cells in the pancreas enable it to detect the presence of sugar. Artificial sweeteners are also "tasted" by it. But unlike our tongue's taste buds, it doesn't send these sensations back to the brain. Instead, the pancreas uses this sensory data to maintain a healthy hormonal balance and blood glucose levels.

Until Shah Jahan lifted the restriction, it was only permitted in royal gardens for the longest period of time, according to food historian KT Achaya's book "A Historical Dictionary of Indian Food."

Uranus is a planet in the outer solar system, as many students are aware. Neptune is the next known planet beyond its reach, and another huge planet may exist much further away (nicknamed "Planet Nine" by the astronomers who proposed its existence). Surprisingly for planetary scientists, it turns out that Uranus is the coldest planet in our solar system, not Neptune. This is due to Uranus's lack of an internal heat source to augment the heat of the sun.

Anxiety is often a cause or a trigger of depression. Research indicates women who have generalized anxiety disorder are at an increased risk of developing depression. People with chronic depression often develop symptoms of anxiety as a result of the mental exhaustion of depression. The same is true for sufferers of chronic anxiety.

A student went 264.4 hours without sleep while still in high school, winning first place in the 10th Annual Great San Diego Science Fair in 1964. Randy said emphatically "no" when asked if he'd do it again. Others claim to have broken Randy's record, but none of their attempts were done under close scrutiny, as Randy's were, so there's no way of knowing if they're genuine.

Insulin resistance can be tested invasively (with catheters and infusions) or more realistically using fasting glucose and insulin levels. However, because testing plasma insulin levels is still not common practise in primary care, we must concentrate on detecting risk factors early. We must actively treat variables such as dyslipidemia and hypertension in people with IGT.

The world's highest horse statue, a 40-metre (131-foot) figure of Genghis Khan, is just outside Ulaanbaatar.

That's not to suggest the Vikings didn't have their own alphabet. They did, and they are the runes, according to popular myth. However, runes were not as widely utilized as the popular myth suggests. They were typically employed in a ritualistic manner, such as on gravestones, property marks, and identifiers for significant locations. Writing did not become ubiquitous until the Roman Catholic Church created the Roman Alphabet. It was also at this time that the famed Viking sagas transitioned from an oral tradition to being written down.

According to English Heritage research from 2010, Stonehenge has a long and fascinating link with astronomy. This is owing, in part, to the monument's alignment with the sunrise of the summer solstice and the sunset of the winter solstice. William Stukeley, a pioneering British archaeologist, discovered this in 1720. Many notable astrologers have examined Stonehenge since then, attempting to uncover links between its structure and the stars.

People call it the God particle since Leon Lederman coined the term in his book of the same name. Marketing brilliance, but completely incorrect. (Aren't they all small particles of God?) In the opening chapter of their book, Lederman and his co-author Dick Teresi explain that "the publisher wouldn't allow us to name it the Goddamn Particle, though it may be a more appropriate title, considering its evil character and the expense it is creating."
