Yes there is a difference in asymmetry between the sexes. However it does not differ only between the sexes. It differs between everyone. Everyone has different facial expressions and facial features. Asymmetry is also dependant on age as slow signs such as wrinkles, bags, fatty deposits, teeth, and pigmentation, which changes with age. As everybody has their own unique looks and features, there will be a difference in asymmetry between different cultures. Difference in asymmetry will not be affected by the difference in culture. There is nobody that will look the same, just alike. Also, research indicates that chimpanzees' facial expressions are asymmetric, with a greater involvement of the left side of the face in the production of emotional responses thus this shows that animals have asymmetric facial expressions. The difference between right handers and left handers are that they use the different side of the brain. Right-handers use left brain and left-handers use right brain. Their facial features will not be affected

Question: what would happen if the freezing point of water became 10 degrees C?



The water will freeze at 10°C,

Many countries out of the equator will freeze if their temperature is 10°C,or below.
Countries like Greenland, their temperature vary from -9°C, to 7°C, Since water freeze at 0°C, when Greenland is at a temperature higher then 0
°C it will not freeze. However when water freezes at 10°C, it is most likely that Greenland will freeze permanently. Artic, Antarctica and countries nearby will also freeze. Countries which their temperature is below 10°C in winter will also freeze.

Agriculture in countries far away from the equator will also be affected. Imagine if a country's average temperature is at 5
°C. Before you can even water the plants, the water will freeze. This way, the plants will die. Animals feeding on the plants will eventually die too. This will then create a chain reaction which then, animals feeding on animals and people feeding on animals will all be affected.

However since ice is less dense than water, it will always float above the water.

Television (TV) is a widely used telecommunication medium for transmitting and receiving moving images usually accompanied by sound. A standard television set comprises multiple internal electronic circuits, including those for receiving and decoding broadcast signals.

Since the late 1930s, the television set has become a common communications receiver in homes, businesses and institutions, particularly as a source of entertainment and news. Since the 1970s the availability of video cassettes, DVDs and now pirated discs have resulted in the television set frequently being used for viewing recorded as well as broadcast material. Although other forms such as closed-circuit television (CCTV) are in use, the most common usage of the medium is for broadcast television, which was modeled on the existing radio broadcasting systems developed in the 1920s, and uses high-powered radio-frequency transmitters to broadcast the television signal to individual TV receivers.

This invention is available almost everywhere and it is a great source to know about news around the world. We can also watch television programs so we will not be so bored. It is now used by many people around the world. This fascinates me as without the television, there will be many things around the world that we will not be aware of
