I assume so, but toward the poles of the center.Does the strength of earth's magnetic field increase towards the center/core?0 -
But that is no proof that intelligence is not determined by genetic factors. Maybe we still don't have the technology needed to do that. Keep in mind that we know the structure and function of just a few genes compared to their overall number.Well the question you need to ask yourself is: if intelligence is largely determined by genetic factors, then how come no one has been able to discover genes that code for intelligence?Besides, if intelligence is not determined so much from genetic factors, what could have possibly influenced in Newton's intellectuall brilliancy? What outside factor? Apples and trees?

Dude, ligh is curved becuase it is going through curved space, which is a manifestation of gravity.light is curved or bends because of the energy and/or matter in that region of space
"Gravity manifests itself as the curving of spacetime." -swansont
Is that relevant in determing whether you post was true or not?who has thought the way I do about the subject ?no one that I know of

Unfortunately (or not?) these kind of games seem to train brain (rhymes I know:-)) to process more data per time. Thats another reason why I kill so much>Most of the games I play you gain rank by killing people...0 -
unless they leave a comment with their name in it then no, you can't tell. it is anonymous.
and also it they're despreate to make friends

I disrespectly disagree. Individually, I think intelligence is determined more from genetical factors. If you don't agree, please explain why becuase I'm really interested to see your opinion on this:-)Well, for those born with genetic brain disorders or idiot savants, certainly.0 -
Why?

Really. Why?Why not!

I don't know what reaction this is...
2-methyl-1-pentene + Br2 ---- CCl4 ---> 1,2-dibromo-2-methylpentane
Thanks for the help ^^

What about as an individual matter?I never said that intelligence was not influenced by genetics, but I have strongly emphasized that environment plays a much greater role in the determination of human intelligence than the relatively insignificant contributions of genetics.0 -
Greeting to all of you who have joined the forum since my last general greeting.
A warm welcome to SFN!
We have fun too here, you know:-p

Gemma and I love it.
Who's you favorite character?
Mine is Leonard. He's almost as smart as Sheldon() and he's a cool guy too.
Then Howard rocks too. IMO he's probably the backbone of the comedy.

"Double hard" isn't entirely true - in most programs, there's a large overlap in classes, especially in terms of the crap 'general education' stuff.
That a common thing to almost all of science, but each branch of it requires a different approach. Biology and Chemistry sure do differ from one another in crucial points, and biology-realted problmes need differnet aproach from chemistry-realted ones.
But yeah, you're, biochem would encompass what he seems to like doing:-)

This is definitely my most favorite comedy ever!
Not only makes you lol, but it also shows you the kind of geeky bastard modern scientist are becoming (no offense).
Have you seen any bit of it? What do you think about it?

I live in Canada (Ontario). I never really thought of double-majoring, I guess I'll look into it now =)
But you do realize that it's double hard work too (it didn't work for me ) dont u...

Actually, all IQ tests are pretty meaningless. Whether one is taking an online IQ test to qualify for Mensa or doing one of Weschler's Adult Intelligence Scales, the only thing measured on such a test is the ability to regurgitate culture-specific bits of trivial information.
But isn't that (more or less) what they're trying to do, and that the test is about?

I presume not. The orbital pattern is determined by the nature of electrostatic forces, and a neutron has no such propertries. But there are differences anyhow.1.) Does the one neutron change the orbital pattern in deuterium?"Bonds involving deuterium and tritium are somewhat stronger than the corresponding bonds in light hydrogen, and these differences are enough to make significant changes in biological reactions (see heavy water)." - Wiki
If my answer above is correct, then yeah!2.) Could you say only protons are responsible for the atoms orbital structure?
I don't think so. That would involve a change in mass (an increase of course), but the charge wouln't change (AFAIK).3.) Also if a hydrogen atom was accelerated to 2x the relativistic mass/energy of 1 proton, would the orbital structure change to something more like a helium atom?0 -
Ummm..... thanks:embarass:The Peace of God is with you right now.0 -
Tha's a big word you know!No.
It won't appear don't worry. We know that from conservation of energy (since matter is energy)!If even a small amount of matter should likewise appear today science would be unable to explain it and it would be considered a miracle.
There is absolutely no reason why we should give this more privilege than the other countless problems since deals with.But still science does not consider existence of the universe a miracle.It indeed is a striking thing to even just think about, but that makes is just another problem for science, nothing more!

Online IQ tests are all pretty meaningless.
I think so too.
IMO, a real IQ test should not just take into consideration what your answer for a problem is, but also the way you aproach problems (which I think is even more important).

... the energy requirements...
Really? Have you worked that out? If so, I'd really appreciate if you explained that in more details, becuase I assume it would require a lot of energy.

Clear enough! ThanksWhich minus sign? The force is attractive, so there will be a negative sign there. The potential energy is likewise negative; we define zero to be when the particles are infinitely far apart.0
