That’s proprioception for you. It’s the sense that can detect where the parts of your body are in respect to each other. Clever dontcha think?

Getting back to biology. We’ve taken a wide range of subjects found under the biological umbrella such as: evolution; hormones; disease; cloning; diet, food chains and superbugs (that’s not giant beetles by the way).

Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson said, “I try to show the public that chemistry, biology, physics, astrophysics is life. It is not some separate subject that you have to be pulled into a corner to be taught about.”

Aristotle (who needs no introduction we hope) said, “By ‘life’, we mean a thing that can nourish itself and grow and decay.”
