    I think that makes sense, water is absorbed into the bloodstream, right? And then the kidneys filter the blood and the bad bits + excess water is peed out. Which is why your pee looks saturated yellow if you are dehydrated and almost clear (but don’t drink it!) when you have drank a lot of water.

    Any remaining water in your digestive tract that isn’t absorbed would be in your poos! If you have diarrhoea and your poos are all liquidy, that means water is not being absorbed properly (bad!)

    I didn’t do Biology, I’m a Physics+Chem student, so this could be completely wrong!

    I mean, the water does have to come from SOMEWHERE, so strictly speaking that way of looking at it is not wrong, just ignoring a few steps.

        The atoms in the air you’re breathing are billions of years old, and the molecules could have been made 5 minutes or a billion years ago. Probably both in the same breath.

            Well, it’s kinda cool to look around and also realize that much of what you see likely came from multiple supernovae and/or kilonovae. (Huh. I have never needed to pluralize the word ‘kilonova’ before. Meh… It looks cool with the ‘e’, so I’ll leave it.)

            Eventually, our atoms are going to get blasted out across the universe again to maybe become part of some other planetary system, before it eventually gets destroyed or sucked into blackhole and is evaporated as radiation. This might not even be the first universe our bits have been a part of …

        Damn right! That’s my teleological purpose! I offend both the religious and secular, and thus make more religious. I’ve invented Mormon Occultism. People that rebel in the Mormon church will find me as I am the quasi-opposition of orthodox religious congregations, while people who seek truth from a secular perspective can debate me and I will win having studied philosophy into the 30th grade. This makes me an attractor membrane to orthodox Mormonism. God thought thus through for me, because God knows my dumb ass wouldn’t have come up with this myself, because damn am I a horny son of a bitch.

        It’s the krebs cycle. If you look at how sugar is broken down by the cells to make atp, the actual energy your cells use, it takes C6H12O6 (sugar) and makes it into a few CO2 and H2O, getting energy (atp) from breaking it down into the components. That CO2 is then exhaled, which is I think what OP is referring to.

        Note: it’s been a long time since I learned that in class so it is most likely somewhat incorrect

          it does check out. the CO2 travels from the cells through the blood into the lungs, where it is exhaled.

          so technically what you exhale has a slightly higher mass than what you inhale, because it has an additional carbon atom.

              Ah OK, thx, I was only familiar with “the internet is a series of tubes”.

              I was referencing an episode of The IT Crowd.

      We are essentially a coiled tube surrounded by a maintenance apparatus.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.

See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.
