![]() ![]() Remains of various extinct elephants were known by Europeans for centuries, but were generally interpreted, based on biblical accounts, as the remains of legendary creatures such as behemoths or giants. In December 8, 2021, It is revealed in the soil that the Woolly mammoth existed 5,000 years ago. In October 20, 2021, new studies show that the Woolly mammoth went extinct because of climate change not humans. Radiocarbon dating indicates that a dwarf population existed there until between 7000 and 3,700 years ago. Most mammoths became extinct around 10,000 years ago, surviving on Siberia’s Wrangel Island longer than anywhere else on earth. Woolly Mammoth skeleton at American Museum of Natural History. The genus Mammuthus includes a number of several species, of which the best known is the woolly mammoth.There are also the steppe mammoth, imperial mammoth, dwarf mammoths, Columbian mammoth, Songhua river mammoth and Wrangel islands woolly mammoth. Their fossil remains can be found on every continent except Australia and South America. Mammoths first appeared in Africa early in the Pleistocene Epoch (the last 1.6 million years of the Earth’s history) and later migrated to Europe, Siberia, and across to North America. The word mammoth comes from the Russian мамонт mamont, probably in turn from the Vogul (Mansi) language, mang ont, meaning "earth horn".Īn extinct class of elephants, mammoths belonged to a diverse and widespread group of mammals known as the proboscideans, characterized by long, trunk-like noses. They lived from the Pliocene Epoch from around 4.8 million into the Pleistocene at about 4,500 years ago. They were often equipped with long curved tusks and, in northern species, a covering of long hair. Proboscideans are members of Elephantidae, the family of elephants and mammoths, and close relatives of modern elephants. More generally, a mammoth is any species of the extinct genus Mammuthus. DNA was obtained from the blood and flesh of the mammoth, in the future it may be possible to clone mammoths. There were still hairs on the frozen mammoths. The flight kept everything like food in the freezer. There was even blood coming out of the frozen mammoths. Amazing are the findings of frozen mammoths, with preserved skin, meat, muscles and organs. They were preyed upon by saber-toothed cats or any other carnivore of the ice age. Bodies have been found frozen well-preserved in ice or in tar pits. It was one of the most famous ice age animals. It may have become extinct of climate change or hunting by prehistoric humans. This animal is It was large and covered with a shaggy exterior of long dark brown hair. The word "mammoth" comes from early 1800s Russian ма́мант mámant which is probably from a Uralic language, most likely from Proto-Mansi * mē̮ŋ-ońt meaning "earth-horn". The Woolly Mammoth is a species of mammoth which lived from the Middle Pleistocene to the Early Holocene. ![]() ![]() ![]() SCOOP - FT BRUSSELS BUREAU CHIEF SET TO MOVE: POLITICO’s Alex Spence reports that Peter Spiegel will leave his role as the Financial Times Brussels bureau chief by early summer to become news editor.

![]() ![]() Coffee: How Do They Compare?īecause the caffeine in regular coffee can have a slight diuretic effect, many believe that coffee is dehydrating, but that’s not actually the case. Here is everything you need to know about coffee and hydration. According to the National Coffee Association 62 percent of Americans kick their day off with a cup of coffee (or three), so it would be helpful to know if those fluids are helping us meet our hydration goals or not. The purported benefits of being a regular coffee drinker (between three to five 8-oz cups a day) include a lower risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer, and Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, according to Harvard Medical School. There is plenty of evidence that drinking coffee is good for your health in general. RELATED: 10 Things You Need to Know About Caffeine But because caffeine is a diuretic (it’ll send you to empty your bladder more often), there is a persistent belief that coffee isn’t as effective as other beverages when it comes to meeting your hydration needs - or may even have the opposite effect. Coffee is the third most popular beverage in the world (after water and tea), according to National Geographic, and if you’ve ever brewed it, you know that it is mostly water. While good ol' H20 - bottled or tap - is your best bet, it’s not the only beverage most of us are drinking in a day. You can use a hydration calculator for an estimate of how much fluid you need to drink. About 20 percent of that comes from the foods you eat, so that leaves about 2.2 L (nine 8-oz cups) for women and 3.0 L (thirteen 8-oz cups) for men coming from the fluids you drink. The gold standard of hydration comes from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, which recommends that women get about 2.7 liters (L) of fluid per day and men get about 3.7 L per day. So how do you know how much you should aim for? While the recommendation to drink eight 8-oz glasses of fluid per day is certainly a good starting point, it’s mostly used because it’s so easy to remember, but it is not the most recent or accurate measure. RELATED: The Truth About Hydration: 5 Myths and 5 Facts Plus, roughly 20 percent of our fluids come from the food we eat. You may have heard the old adage that you should have eight 8-ounce (oz) glasses of water each day, but hydration needs vary by gender, activity level, and even the climate. (So swigging some H20 may be a good way to fight off brain fog!)Īdding to the confusion is the fact that there is no recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for water or fluids. ![]() Scientific literature indicates that cognitive function can take a hit when you’re running a mere 1 to 2 percent low on bodily fluids. ![]() Even mild dehydration can lead to fatigue, dizziness, headaches, and muscle cramps according to the Cleveland Clinic. And the effects of dehydration go beyond thirst. Most of us don’t think to drink until we feel thirsty - and by then, we may already be dehydrated. And, according to the Sleep Foundation, being well-hydrated may lead to better sleep.īut hydration can be surprisingly tricky. Why are all those fluids so critical? Well, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) they play a role in regulating body temperature, mood, and cognition. In a national survey of 2,000 American adults conducted by OnePoll for the brand Evian, less than one-quarter reported drinking eight or more glasses of water a day. “Stay well-hydrated” is one of those time-tested pieces of nutritional advice you’ve been hearing your whole life - and likely still fail to follow. ![]() ![]() Then, the materials being evaluated will have their densities measured at a given temperature and pressure, and will be designated with numbers less than, equal to, or greater than one depending on their density relative to the reference material. For most of the soils the value of specific gravity lies between 2.65 to 2. The specific gravity may slightly vary within a mineral because. So Specific gravity of solids, which is denoted by G or Gs, can be defined as the ratio of the unit weight of solids to the unit weight of water, which is weight of solids of a given volume, to the weight of equivalent volume of water at 4 degree centigrade. Most minerals with a metallic luster are heavy. Minerals with a specific gravity under 2 are considered light, between 2 and 4.5 average, and greater than 4.5 heavy. ![]() ![]() Once this is determined, it is assigned a specific gravity of 1. If a mineral has a specific gravity of 2.7, it is 2.7 times heavier than water. The reference material and its density must be specified at a given temperature and pressure. What is required to calculate a specific gravity is a material and its density, a reference material and its density, a temperature and a pressure. Specific gravity is a comparison of densities, and as a result no dimensions are required when evaluating and considering specific gravity. Furthermore, the specific gravity can tell us if the object will. This also means that kerosene will float on the water's surface when both are placed in a container. Liquids with a density lower than water, which includes most crude oil grades and petroleum products, will have a specific gravity between 0.0 and 1.0. Specific gravity refers to the ratio of the density of an object and the reference material. This means that kerosene has a lower density than water at that temperature. For liquids, water is usually used as the reference material.Īn example of comparing two liquids is that kerosene has a value lower than 1 compared to pure water at 40☏ (104☌) under normal atmospheric pressure. For gases, air at normal pressure and temperature is often used as the reference material. The ratio of the unfamiliar material with a more common material allows for quick comparisons in regard to density. Specific gravity (sp gr) is a ratio, expressed decimally, of the weight of a substance to the weight of an equal volume of a substance chosen as a standard. Specific gravity is an important measurement when considering the density of an unfamiliar material. Corrosionpedia Explains Specific Gravity (SP.GR) ![]() |
