Answer 1

1. The decay of a body releases a large amount of horrible smelling gas, and that can seep up through a loose coffin lid.

2. Hair can be bleached of color by the heat and radiation from the sun, melanin in the skin darkens to help prevent damage to it by the sun.

3. The movements of one area of the face can change the shape of the rest of it. The lines around the eyes can change because of the position of the mouth. Opening the mouth can make it easier to apply.

4. The particular type of glue can be inefective on types of plastic. That's why there are multiple types of glue.

5. They're all frauds, just look at how many popular and influential ones Harry Houdini disproved.

6. Its roots make its meaning, so its long roots make it long.

7. So they can go to their corners.

8. It sticks to your lips, not sticking your lips together.

9. Medicine is constantly changing and improving, they don't know everything and never will, so they are doing the best practice they can.

10. Rain comes down in a motion that is only changed because of the breeze, snow actually drifts on the air because it has a shape that has its own air resistance.

11. Your mind can only focus on one sense at once (though it can switch back and forth so fast that you don't realize it), so to look for something, its easier if you don't have another sense being used as much. Try closing your eyes and just listening, you hear things better.

Yes, this was interesting. That's why I spent so much time on it.

Answer 2

1.Why is it considered necessary to nail down the lid of a coffin. So dirt doesnt get inside.

2. Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin?
So can look more vain.

3.Why can't women put on mascara with their mouth closed?
Because they are talking on the phone with their other hand.

4.Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
Its super glue!

5. Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?
Because mirrors dont work houses that psychics live in.

6. Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?
Because there were some extra letters laying around with nothing to do.

7.Why is a boxing ring square?
Just try saying boxing circle. It doesnt run off the tounge right.

8.Why is it called lipstick if you can still move your lips?
Again, see the cell phone answer for this one!

9Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?
Because if it were a game, would you go?

10.Why is it that rain drops but snow falls?
Its like parking in a driveway or driving on a parkway.

11.Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?
So you can hear yourself think.

Answer 3

1. To make sure the dead stay dead.

2. That assumption is not true. While the melanin does get activated/deposited on the skin to save us from dying, if it were true that sun lightened our hair, people in the tropics (South Asia (India etc), Africa, S. America) etc. should all have lighter hair than their European/American siblings of evolution. Now, we know that ain't true.

3. They can. They just don't make a conscious effort to do so.

4. It is made of material that the glue does not work on. Glue is specific to the surfaces it works on.

5. 'Cos they don't buy tickets knowing the winning ticket is not in the vicinity they are in to buy (pun intended).

6. Although, let it be noticed, it still is smaller than abbreviation.

7. The name ring is an atavism from when contests were fought in a roughly drawn circle on the ground. The name ring continued with the Jack Broughton rules in 1743, which specifed a small circle in the centre of the fight area where the boxers met at the start of each round. The first square ring was introduced by the Pugilistic Society in 1838. (Source: http://www.answers.com/topic/boxing-ring-1)

8. Because, it sticks to the lips. It does not stick the lips.

9. Because nothing is perfect and what they do is the best possible 'Evidence Based Medicine'.

10. Due to the differences in their physical properties. Also rain does not drop, rain happens/sometimes pours as raindrops. Snow gradually falls.

11. Fewer distraction - greater focus.

Interesting - and a little beaten to death.

Answer 4

1) This came from the older times when people would rob a grave for the riches in them. Like rings, watches

2) Pigments in our skin darken when sunlight burns the skin (sunbrun) then it browns the skin. Hair is lighten because it is dead skin.

3) Because when extend your head towards a mirror you jaws open, thus open mouth.

4)Because of the lack of air inside the bottle, when you add in air to a glue substaince it hardens

5) Because psychic are not real, or the rather keep the secret and not tell any one.

6) Abbreviated is a word not meaning itself. It discribes something else

7) Cause associations have it made it so, also they called them "rings" cause spectors use to form a ring around the platform

8) Beacause the applicator is a stick

9) Because medicine is not a defining form, you always have to practice the new forms of medicine coming in or new diseaces

10) Cause liquid drops and solids fall

11) to concentrate on the objective at hand

Yes good questions

1. So the body won't pop out.

2. Your skin is actually an organ that has a lot of water in it, where as hair is not.

3.Really? I can.

4. Because air hasnt hit it yet. If you notice, after a while, the last bit of glue does stick in there from the constant suction of air back into the bottle.

5. The real ones wouldn't use their gift for their own gain.

6. It's not that long...

7. Who knows...

8. Because the lip stuff is in the form of a stick. lol

11. To think clearly.

I think some of the questions were crazy. lol

Answer 6

hair is dead cells

to get their eyes more open

companies made it that way after trial and error

cus they use powers for good, not depriving people of money

cus since ur cutting off the endings to words, where are the ending gonna go?

cus that's what it was called in ancient times

cus its a stick for the lips

practice is another word for going, just sounds cooler

rain is less aprciated than sbow, so there had to be an adjective that describes, what ppl feel

cus it's easier to focus. it has been shown that u can't double task by a study (listening to radio and watching for a 3-4 digit number)

some pretty ineresting stuff. i think that this is the most i've thought about simple stuff like that all day
