Why do we watch movies

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Just like books there are different genres of movies. The primary reason for watching movies is definitely entertainment but what entertains each of us may differ in subject matter and content. Some of the components of a movie like the screenplay, the dialogues, the plot and acting determine if the movie is watchable or not. To find out why people watch movies we need to understand first that people do not like to watch all sorts of movies. Some movies win accolades and Academy awards whereas some fade into oblivion. The movies have only one goal and that is to entertain us.

Why do we watch reality shows

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Reality TV shows have become hugely popular with people around the world and the secret of their success lies in the fact that the creative heads and other people who design these shows know exactly what we like. The first thing that most of the reality shows have in common is drama. If there was only competition then no one would bother to watch. There is drama when a contestant fails to wow the judges and there is lots of crying and back stabbing going on. The reality shows that follow a so-called star around and show us their lives are popular for the same reason.

Why do we love cooking shows

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Cooking shows have been around a decade or more with us and though they have changed the pattern and formats we still love them as before. Food is a great component of hit shows because though we are not aware we think about food during a huge part of the day. The truth is that all our activities are primarily directed at acquiring food for ourselves. Food is attached with the very basic instincts that we have and it is the driving force behind a society. When such a favorite topic is being explored by the skilled hands of gourmet cooks how can we not pay our attention to the television? And that’s why cookery shows have become a huge hit all over the world.

Why do brains have a wrinkled surface

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

The brain of human beings and other smart animals have wrinkles. It has been observed that all animals do not have a wrinkled brain. For example the brains of frogs have a smooth surface. Evolution is responsible for the ugly wrinkles that our brain possesses. The folds and creases give it a distinct appearance whether we like it or not. The brain is like a modular kitchen. In a kitchen we need to keep so many different appliances, gadgets, utensils and store grocery items. All of us are not lucky to have infinite kitchen space. Human innovation has helped us in making kitchens where there is plenty of storage space that folds pretty easily and leaves room for us to move around. The same logic has been applied on our brain by the nature.

Why do brain freezes happen

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Brain freezes can be very painful and sudden. It does not happen to all of us but some people experience a burst of pain at the forehead when they eat or drink something cold. In the language of medicine the stab like pain on the forehead that comes with eating ice-cream or cold drinks is called sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia. Such a hefty term is not easy to use so we just call it brain freeze. As we have studied Newton’s Third Law we know that every action produces a reaction. The brain freeze is the physical reaction we get from eating very cold food or drink. It is also termed as the ice cream headache.

Every machine or engine needs some sort of fuel and for our body and mind sugar acts as the fuel. We need sugar in our blood for staying active and healthy.

The brain requires sugar all the time for producing energy with the help of oxygen. Blood is the carrier of sugar or glucose and if tested at any point of time some amount of sugar will be found in our blood.

March 11, 2022July 10, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Maintaining good health depends largely on the diet we maintain and the food we consume on a daily basis. Fiber rich food is healthy and has many benefits. We need to include food that has plenty of fiber to keep fit. People who are suffering from obesity and want to reduce weight are often advised to keep more fiber in their daily diet.

Why do brand matters

March 11, 2022July 9, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

The aim of every business is to establish its own brand through marketing and advertisements. But those are not the only things which help a brand shine among a crowd of many. The production and packaging also matter and so does the usefulness or problem solving capabilities of the particular products the brand is representing. When we think of McDonald’s the first thing that comes to mind is a happy, family meal we can enjoy at one of their outlets. When we think of Apple instantaneously the logo of a bitten apple comes to our mind. Brand is crucial because it helps a business create its own niche and a distinct identity.

Why do we need minerals in our foods

March 11, 2022July 9, 2013 by Jennifer Moon

Minerals are one of the gifts that nature has blessed us with. Our body requires consuming minerals because it cannot synthesize the minerals that nature produces. We can take mineral supplements but it is always better to eat food that is rich in different minerals. The plants get minerals from the sap of soil. They suck the minerals along with the water through their root hair and produce starch with it. We get minerals from eating vegetables and fruits or from the animal meat. Even eating fish supplies our body with minerals because they consume minerals from the saline water.
