antwoord aan Myette
Lieve Myette, ik was toch ook even benieuwd en ik ben zoals jij een kurieuzeneuzemosterdpot dus ben ik even snel op 't net gaan kijken of de drie punten ( 2-8-10) inderdaad niet juist waren.
Ik ga het niet vertalen wegens gebrek aan tijd maar ik weet dat gij een heel slim madammeke zijt dus dat is geen probleem.
Hier volgt wat ik gevonden heb (wel heel snel gekeken hoor - voel je vrij om tegenstrijdige berichten hieronder te zetten).
I have read that Alfred Hitchcock did not have a belly button. How is this possible?
Alfred Hitchcock's navel was removed during surgery.
Is it true that babies are born without knee caps? If so, why?
Newborns do have kneecaps. Kneecaps form about the fourth month of fetal life. However, they dont show up on x-ray very well because theyre not ossified, or bony. At this point in life, the kneecaps are made of a cartilaginous material. The growth centers surrounding the kneecap form late in developmental life in utero and may not appear until just before or just after the infant is born.
Remember, infants are a work in progress. The potential for linear bone growth may continue until the late teens or early twenties. Although all the precursor tissues for the major bones are present at or immediately after birth, centers of ossification (where bone is laid down) continue to develop throughout childhood and beyond. For instance, the head of the femur appears at four months, the patella, or kneecap, starts showing signs of ossification at about 3 years in females and 4-5 years of age in males. Parts of the pelvic girdle (hips) dont appear ossified until adolescence with the tubercle of the pubis not appearing until 18-20 years of age.
Who invented the toothbrush and when was it invented?
The toothbrush as we know it today was not invented until 1938. However, early forms of the toothbrush have been in existence since 3000 BC. Ancient civilizations used a "chew stick," which was a thin twig with a frayed end. These 'chew sticks' were rubbed against the teeth.
The bristle toothbrush, similar to the type used today, was not invented until 1498 in China. The bristles were actually the stiff, coarse hairs taken from the back of a hog's neck and attached to handles made of bone or bamboo.
