What animals are able to remove foreign objects from their body through the bladder?

Frogs are able to remove foreign objects from their bodies through their bladders. This discovery was made by Australian scientists by accident. During the experiments, they implanted transmitters into the bodies of frogs. A few weeks later, the frogs were caught and found that most of the devices had moved into the bladders, and some came out with the urine. It turned out that when a foreign body appears, soft tissues begin to grow to it, which gradually envelop the object and draw it into the bladder.

What is fine arts?

In the modern world, one can find manifestations of one form or another of art almost everywhere. The furniture in your house, the house itself, your watch or clothes - all this can be attributed to art in general in one way or another. In any of these cases, someone has decorated your item in an attempt to make it attractive. However, this so-called applied art plays a secondary role: it is intended only to decorate the object that a person will use for its intended purpose. Fine arts (in modern parlance - just art) are engaged in a completely different, that is, as their name implies, "graceful" in itself.

The "fine" arts include painting, sculpture, literature, theatre, music, dance, and architecture. Of all the arts listed above, only architecture has "practical utility". Architects have to think not only about the beauty, but also about the usefulness of their structures. However, works of art created by the enormous work of the artist-creator may not have any practical use at all. They are created to satisfy our need for beauty, that's all.

The final result of creativity can be a statue, a melody, a play, a book, etc. In contemporary art, in all its forms, one can find examples of curious experiments. However, traditional methods in the works of all types of artistic creativity have something in common. This something is an image embodied in a work. This image is embodied with the help of sounds, stone, words, building materials, lines and colors. In each image there is what can be called rhythm, proportion and harmony. Rhythm arises from the more or less measured repetition of sounds, colors, shapes and movements.

Proportion is such an embodiment of the artist's intention, which seems to us correct, expressed in proportionate parts. Harmony lies in the natural correspondence of the various parts of the image to each other. All this, of course, is only the most general concepts from the field of artistic creativity and fine arts.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>
