Science Trivias - Body Edition

This Science Trivia post is all about the body... 


TRIVIA 1: When we sneeze, air rushes through our nose at a rate of 100 mph (160.93 km/h). Can you say, achooo?


TRIVIA 2:An eyelash lives about 150 days before it falls out. It is barely noticeable, but it also doesn't mean we could just ignore taking care of it. Careful on the eyelash curlers, girls!


TRIVIA 3:Each of our eyes has 120 million rods, which helps us see in black and white. That's a LOT, and quite amazingly interesting.


TRIVIA 4:One in 12 men is color blind. But at least, it's better to admit you're color blind than just not knowing the difference between PINK and FUCHSIA. 


TRIVIA 5:The strongest muscle of the body is the masseter muscle, which is located in the jaw. Yup, it's so strong it LOCKS itself. (Lockjaw)
