Sharks are like so cool, did you know that sharks' skin is made up of dermal denticles, these are miniscule placoid scales that are similar to teeth, these dermal denticles are even covered in enamel, called vitro-dentine, and they also include dentine and a pulp cavity, which again makes them very comparable to teeth! Sharks are just silly little guys hehehshe!!

Why Your Tongue Sticks to a Metal Pole in Winter and How to Free It

In winter, some people, either playfully or unknowingly, stick their tongue to a metal pole, which can be dangerous. However, not everyone understands the scientific reasons behind it. In this article, we will explore why the tongue sticks to metal, the science behind it, and how to free yourself from this situation.

Scientific Reasons Behind Tongue Sticking to a Metal Pole in Winter

During winter, the air is dry and cold, and metal poles cool down quickly. When you touch a cold metal surface with your warm, moist tongue, the saliva on your tongue freezes almost instantly. This happens because the metal pole absorbs heat from your tongue so quickly that your body cannot replace the heat fast enough.

The saliva on your tongue quickly turns to ice, which causes your tongue to get stuck to the metal. This is not only uncomfortable but can also harm your tongue if you don't take immediate and proper action.

How to Free Your Tongue if It Gets Stuck

If your tongue gets stuck to a metal pole, don't panic. A simple solution is to use warm water or any other liquid. By pouring warm water between the metal and your tongue, the frozen saliva will gradually melt, and you can easily free your tongue. However, make sure not to use excessively hot water, as it can burn your tongue.

How to Prevent Your Tongue From Getting Stuck to a Metal Pole

Stay Cautious: Never place your tongue on any metal object during winter, not even as a joke.

Educate Children: Children may be curious about this phenomenon, so it's important to make them aware of the dangers.

Avoid Metal Objects: During winter, avoid touching outdoor metal objects like poles and railings, as they cool down rapidly and have a high capacity to absorb heat.

Conclusion

Sticking your tongue to a metal pole in winter is a hazardous situation. It primarily happens when your warm, moist tongue touches cold metal, and the metal quickly absorbs the heat from your tongue, causing the saliva to freeze. To avoid such situations, it’s essential to stay cautious. However, if it does happen, using warm water or liquid to melt the ice can help you free your tongue. Staying calm and taking quick, proper action can save you from injury.

Friday Fun Fact Faction: 3 shark facts!

• Sharks don't have bones! Their skeletons are made up of cartilage, this helps them float easier and swim faster as they are much lighter. Despite not being bone these skeletons can still be fossilised much like human teeth can be (teeth are not made of cartilage though). Other sea creatures share this feature with sharks, for example rays and sawfish.

• The two biggest species of shark in the world (the basking shark and the whale shark) are both filter feeders! Despite their massive size (up to 8 meters and 10 meters long respectively) they do not hunt, instead they swim slowly with their mouths agape capturing microplankton or "inhale" a large cloud of plankton at once. The water in their mouths is then filtered past large gill rakers (which prevent food from escaping) and through their large gills.

• Most sharks have eight fins but some may have less! These consist of two pectoral fins, two pelvic fins, two dorsal fins, a caudal fin, and an anal fin. Though an order of sharks exists known as "hexanchiformes", they are primitive sharks and therefore have some undeveloped features such as having only one dorsal fin resulting in a total of seven fins. There are only seven extant (currently existing) species of hexanchiformes because of this, in this list are the frilled shark and the cow shark.

Unlike humans, all sharks are born with teeth! They grow in conveyor-belt rows, with the biggest teeth facing outwards. Over time, the smaller teeth in the back move up, replacing the front ones. Most sharks have between 5-15 rows, and the whale shark has about 3,000 teeth in its mouth, but because those teeth aren’t attached to their gums on a root like ours, they lose around a tooth every week. :33

Sharks can grow up to 50,000 teeths during their lifetime. While humans just get baby teeth and adult teeth, but sharks are constantly growing teeths throughout their entire life. It depending on the type of shark, they can have 30,000---50,000 teeth during their lifetime and also they can have up to 300 teeth during different stages of their life. A set of new teeth is always developing in the predators' jaw, and they rotate forward like a conveyer belt.

Posted @withregram • @oceanskeepers Mindless killing machines?? Not at all! Unfortunately, the media and Hollywood have brainwashed the wider public into believing that a shark’s sole purpose is the kill, kill, kill. But the reality is, our oceans need sharks. As @sharkangels explains, sharks are critical to the survival of our oceans. Their role at the top of the food chain isn’t to mindlessly hunt prey but in fact to keep the ocean’s delicate ecosystem healthy and prosperous. Here we have a couple of Blue Sharks doing their duties to remove a rotting Fin Whale carcass from the ocean’s surface.
