I learned that our nerves are bundles of thin cells that carry electrical signals to and from the brain.]]> 2020-08-10 20:52:35 UTC https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674841397 alanabedgood2018 https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674865404 I learned that when we are in situations like the pilot of the helicopter trying to save the boy, our senses go into overload. This is because he is doing several thing such as handling the throttle and making sure the guy on the rope does not hit the ground. The pilot is depending on sensation faster than he can think.]]> 2020-08-10 21:17:36 UTC https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674865404 alanabedgood2018 https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674888412 I learned that we have millions of sweat glands. Also that the sweat glands extract water from the blood and release it in the open and as the sweat evaporates it cools us. I just found this important and interesting because the body is 75% water.]]> 2020-08-10 21:44:54 UTC https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674888412 alanabedgood2018 https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674888736 I was surprised to learn that our hands have a hundred times as many sensors per square inch as the back of our legs.Also that the senses for heat is in our finger tips, nose, and elbows. I have never heard that the elbows are heat sensors until this video. ]]> 2020-08-10 21:45:15 UTC https://padlet.com/alanabedgood2018/15tdn9gdb6po0dhx/wish/674888736
