5. Unique Smell:
Each person has a unique odor, and studies have shown that people can identify and remember the smell of people they are close to. This individual scent is influenced by genetics, diet, and environmental factors.
6. Stomach Lining Protection:
The stomach is exposed to powerful digestive acids, yet it doesn’t digest itself. This is because the stomach lining is protected by a layer of mucus, which prevents the acid from causing harm. The stomach lining is continuously replaced to maintain this protective barrier.
7. Body Temperature Regulation:
The body has a remarkable ability to regulate its temperature. The hypothalamus in the brain acts as a thermostat, ensuring that the body stays within a narrow temperature range. When you’re hot, you sweat to cool down, and when you’re cold, you shiver to generate heat. This temperature regulation is crucial for maintaining the proper functioning of enzymes and other biochemical processes in the body.
