Hyoid Bone

Do you know that the only bone in the human body that is not connected to another bone is the Hyoid Bone, a U shaped bone at the base of the tongue.



It is supported by the muscles in the neck but not connected to any other bone.

The human Skeleton makes up about 1/5th of the person’s entire weight. An average adult weighing 70 kg will have a skeleton that weighs 14 kg.

isn't this great??

Thank you.

Teddy Bears

How many of you know, why these stuffed soft toys with big ears and bulgy stomach are named as teddy bears?

Teddy bears are named after the US President Theodore Roosevelt (teddy).

The story began when the President refused to shoot Bear during his Hunting Trip.

This incident appeared in a Cartoon by Clifford K.Berryman published in the Washington Post.

Soon after Morris Michtome a New York Shop keeper started making stuffed Bears and Advertised them as Teddy's Bear with Roosevelt permission.

Thank You.
