In fact, this disrespectful treatment can cause various adverse effects for the victim, ranging from lowering the victim's self-esteem to triggering the emergence of mental disorders.  Fat shaming is the behavior of badmouthing, criticizing, or commenting on the body shape and eating habits of people who have above average weight.  ️  Some examples of expressions that sound like fat shaming are, “Why are you so fat now?

it's about soundproof room  When walking in a crowd, what sound do we usually hear?  Car horns, motorbikes and people screaming in the streets.  We know, the sound is produced because sound waves propagate in one medium, one of which is air.  In addition to air, the vibrations that produce sound can also propagate through solids and liquids.  For example, toy telephones used thread when we were small.  We can hear our friend's whisper on the other end of the line, right?  But have you ever imagined if the propagation of these sounds could be stopped so that noise pollution was reduced?  Research from experts at the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Ohio State University has the answer.  Sih-Ling Yeh designed a device to absorb sound vibrations so that it can help improve the soundproofing level.  This homemade tool can control vibration in any condition.  For example, his homemade resonator can be used to reduce the lo...

If we pay attention, air from outside can enter the stomach through the mouth, throat, and finally enter the stomach. After that, the air continues its journey into the small and large intestines, and eventually exits the anal canal as a fart. Every day, it is norm...

know the phosphorus cycle: Definition, role and, Cycle  After getting to know the various cycles, this time we will learn about the phosphorus cycle.  The phosphorus cycle may not be very commonly discussed, but phosphorus still plays an important role in our lives both directly and indirectly.  Phosphorus is a nutrient that is quite limited for biological productivity in the terrestrial environment.  The presence of the element Phosphorus is also very limited in the ecosystem.  This is due to the slow rate of soil weathering and the limited release of phosphorus by ecosystem productivity [1].  Phosphorus plays an important role for all forms of life including the preparation of genetic material such as DNA and RNA, energy transfer (ATP and ADP), and the formation of certain organ structures supported by membranes (phospholipids).  In organisms that carry out photosynthesis, phosphorus is used as an essential nutrient that can build their tissues with ...
