 The average red blood cell lives for 120 days.

2. There are 2.5 trillion (give or take) of red blood cells in your body at any moment. To maintain this number, about two and a half million new ones need to be produced every  second by your bone marrow.That's like a new population of the city of Toronto every second.

3. Considering all the tissues and cells in your body, 25 million new cells are being  produced each second.That's a little less than the population of Canada - every second !

4. A red blood cell can circumnavigate your body in under 20 seconds.

5. Nerve Impulses travel at over 400 km/hr (25 mi/hr).

6. A sneeze generates a wind of 166 km/hr (100 mi/hr), and a cough moves out at 100 km/hr(60 mi/hr).

7. Our heart beats around 100,00 times every day.

8. Our blood is on a 60,000-mile journey.

You own a winery in Napa Valley. An assistant accidentally leaves the lid for a vat of wine slightly ajar. Would the yeast insid
anastassius [24]

<span>When the lid for a vat of wine is slightly open, the yeast inside can continue to perform alcoholic fermentation because the carbon dioxide produced by the yeast during fermentation will act as a blanket over the wine.  Nevertheless, the air around the fermenter must be still and enough carbon dioxide should be produced to continue alcoholic fermentation. However, at some point, carbon dioxide will fall and can no longer protect the wine. This is the right time to get your wine covered before it will be vulnerable to undesirable microorganisms. </span>

Therefore, open fermentation is good in the early stages of fermentation because yeast need oxygen to synthesize sterols and assimilate fatty acids to ensure the nutrients it needs to multiply and ferment the 70% of the sugar from the fruit. Furthermore, the yeast is responsible in decomposing sugar from the grapes into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
