BREATHING SAVASANA AND AIR MASKS

By -


Guys its been a while I got time to write a new post actually three years but there is positive point ,it added my experience of being assistant professor and teaching life-science, all seven different subjects in seven semesters .

So I have a lot of things to add up...

Life-science as you all know I started the topic as WE OURSELVES ARE MIRACLE ,MIRACLE THAT WE OFTEN NEGLECT.

How many of us like YOGA!!

YES YOGA !!!!

There is one of the asanas or poses of yoga is "Savasana" where we are calmed relaxed and just focusing on our breathing yes breathing quite common??

Breathing that we usually do but we never notice , How to we breathe or respire?

Normally if I ask my students they will say Mam we take oxygen in and exhale carbon dioxide out thats respiration ..not a big deal.

If I ask them Does Plant respire? Is it a living thing? ahhh brain my brain that connects me to a hindi story i read in my childhood "money plant bana gawaah" (money plant as testimony for murder case).

Surprisingly things connects but questions in our mind can only be resolved through these connections .

Respiration again connects to the need of animal to inhale oxygen that is maintaining biological processes for survival  and need of plant to inhale carbon dioxide that is photosynthesis as we all know plants are autotrophs (that can make there own food). Remember make not cook !!!

Obviously there is difference.

This is the general and very basic depiction of biochemical reaction in human or animal body that is result of respiration or normal breathing we are talking about .

Respiration is further  followed by Krebs cycle and electron transport chain providing energy and cells respiration .

Further these topics will be discussed in detail


Last but not the least the trend is in news ..people wearing air masks and air purifiers  ..pollution hampering the breathing processes can result in serious damage of health and life.

Watch out for the same and avoid the circumstances that can result in air pollution.

Darwin said survival of the fittest, is the key to evolution. Hence nature itself selects organism. Mutation is one of the main factor for evolution .Mutation can be refer to the error in gene or genome sequencing that can be of some loss but not always .It is of benefit as well. A mutation can make individual more efficient or less efficient. YES!! We all do have mutants around us that are not fiction or movie like X-MEN. Mutants are those who has problem in gene prior and after birth.                                                    Now other factor for evolution is the genetic constituent. So guys can u think of what we are made of yes obviously cells but what does it constitute off. Now don’t think of any bookish knowledge .Have not you heard people saying oh he has his father’s height, oh my god she is just as fair as her mother etc .yes actually we inherit qualities that have been passed on to generations in our family and how it passes ?? Well Mendel called it facto

Guys before another post, consider the news in air, MAGGI BEING BANNED!! .What do u think is the reason? Yes the excess lead quantity in it. Let me tell you Maggi is not the first neither the last in the list .there are many food items having lead and MSG quantities that is of harm to us.  Lead is the heavy material which is when ingested gets accumulated in the body and cause harmful effects specially in pregnant women and newborn babies as it affect CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM leading to mental retardation in children  below six years .Even adult are affected severely one of the effect being abdominal pain. High content of MSG and lead in Maggi was found. MSG is added to enhance flavor, though it is found naturally too but it is produced artificially by fermentation .Lead itself is present in environment even drinking water, but it should not be more then permissible quantity. In Maggi, seven times more lead content were found. Neurological Effects Peripheral ne
