There has been millions upon millions of inventions invented by different brilliant people, that we would be no where in life without today. Like the light bulb we were always taught in school that Thomas Edison invented it but in reality it wasn't him he perfected it. Though it was actually 20 other scientists who had different patents on it, but none of there were successful as Edison's they tried but faced many different obstacles.

Edison deserves to be credited as the inventor of the light bulb, because he perfected the light bulb by finding the right materials and doing more research. He did what others couldn't, by making it commericially successful and mass producing it.


 Many men tried to work on the light bulb but failed. According to ''Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb'', English man Humphrey Davy showed his electric lamp invention to the royal society and the light burned out so quickly. Joseph Swan began experimenting with different materials but none of them worked for any amount of time to be recorded.

Image result for thomas edison creating the light bulbEdison actually bought the patented and produced light bulb from  Henry Woodard and  Matthew Evans, their  light bulb was made from a large piece of carbon connected to two wires and filled their inert with nitrogen, but they failed to find financial helpers and weren't able to put the invention out .According to ''Canadian invention-- the light bulb''. Thomas Edison  perfected it by designing his own with high resistance thin filament of carbon and a high vaccum with a sealed off glass ,which resulted in a life of 1200 hours. Edison was able to mass produce and it was able to sale over 300,00 bulbs in the United States.


The definition of Invention is the Process within a overall engineering and product development process , It may be a improvement upon a product or a new process and that is what Thomas Edison did so he should continue to be credited with inventing the light bulb.

The  human body replaces itsself every 7- 10 years and sometimes often. There are over 75 trillion cells in the body. Organs like the intestines, skin, liver and bones all replace themselves whether its every few years or weekly. The most important cells replace themselves faster. we all may have the questioned why the body replaces itself or how the body replaces itself. The body makes new cells in different ways. one way is by a process called mitosis, when a parent cell splits into two new cells and those cells are called daughter cells which are copies of the original cell. Another way the body replaces itself is stem celling. They are usually in the lowest amount. Cells like blood cells and nerve cells can not make copies of themselves. When you are born with spaces between your hands and feet is caused due to cells dying preventing you from having webbed hands and feet like some animals. All cells eventually shrivel up and die. Skin, the epidermis goes through a lot of wear b...

How many bones do babies have? Do they have more than Adults? Authors can use two ways to present informaton. Whether its a article or a quick video. In the Article, the author states that ''the infant has around 300 bones while adults have 206 bones''( how many bones). The article also states that the infant has around 300 bones while a adult only has 206. The author goes into details about what bones are made of Penosteum, compact bone, cancellous and bone marrow and the process of bone development '' the process begins the eight week of embryonic development''(how many bones). The essay also says that babies bones fuses together and the bones decrease one by one which is the reason why the bone count of the human goes to 300 to 206. In the same article the author states that bones changes don't stop, they continue to decrease with the age, alcohol consumption. While adding research about the rise of calcium and additonal bone facts and how to k...
