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).

Every year on the 14th of February there are hearts, cupid, ballons and chocolate are thrown  everywhere you can't go anywhere without seeing red this and pink that. But have you ever thought of how all of this came about? what is the history? Some sources believe that the catholic church decided to christianize the actually pagan celebration of Lupercalia , a fertility festival dedicated to Fanus a roman god. Is this holiday as sweet and lovely as we really think? According to one source, ''members of the Luperci, a group of several roman priest',would come together at a sacred cave where Romulus and Remus the founders of Rome and would sacrifice a goat for fertility, and a dog for purification'' (History of valentines day) . I know you're probably thinking what the hell is this, but this is not it. Then they would skin the animals and dip them in their own sacrificial blood and whip women with it. The women actually believed that it would make them fer...
     Sports have been around for centuries, There have been debates to what was the first sport recorded in history. Evidence from britannica shows that wrestling dated back 15,300 years ago. Paintings and illustrations were found in caves of men in the stance from 7000 B.C in Mongolia and 6000 B.C in Libya (britannica.com/ wrestling/sports). A papyrus fragment (which was used as writing material from a plant) , was found with instructions on how to wrestle in 100-200 A.D. While some historians state that running was the first sport, It actually wasn't put in the category of sports until 776 BCE. There isn't even enough evidence to support that running was first a competitive sport. Wrestling  was first developed by the ancient Greeks as a way to train for hand to hand combat.  It was the most popular event in the ancient Greek games with winners being recorded since 708 B.C In 1896 in the modern olympic games, wrestling became the focus of the games beca...
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 differen...

Whether it was being denied job opportunities, lower pay, fewer benefits, slavery, being denied education and civil rights .I n order to make a change for our people we had to step up and fight going against the political norm.     A century before the first black president Barack Obama ,who was successful at winning two presidential terms.

Is it the 19th century or the 21st century? I need a refresher. We're in a political world where the most important person in the country takes being the president as joke. Where he as president put himself over the citizens and problems of the nation. Its like were in the 1860's all over again with Andrew Johnson the first impeached president in history. I thought times would have changed, it been centuries literally! Discrimination, racism, using your power to belittle and intimidate people around you , and  stirring more hatred. who is this guy talking about? I just described Andrew Johnson and the current president Donald Trump who terms though were hundreds of years apart, different economic issues and problems.  Are the two more alike than we think?           Andrew Johnson was Born into poverty in the 1800's he wasn't educated but he was self-educated he taught himself. Although he did hav...
