SCIENCE DISCOVERY


Over the weekend I was playing my computer and i was wondering who invented the internet. I figured out that it was Paul Otlet. He called the internet the Radiated Library. which was made using telephones and radio parts. Paul invented the internet in 1939. He was sitting in his room one day and thought that technology could be used to do more than talking and entertainment so he invented the internet.

i wondered over the weekend how leaves decompose. when i looked it up it said that snails usually eat parts of the leaves. Also bacteria and fungi help by eating the leaf. it usually takes about six months to decompose. caterpillars also help eat the leaves along with ants.

over the weekend i was eating popcorn and i was wondering how it pops. when i looked it up i figured inside of every piece of popcorn theirs a drop of water. a piece of popcorn needs between 13.5 and 14% of water to pop. when the kernel heats up the water expands and POP! your results are a piece of popcorn. to make the popcorn kernels you have to let the corn dry out. you can do it by watering the corn stalks less. there is no difference between corn and popcorn kernels just that the popcorn kernels are dried out.
