A neuron has an electrical charge which transmits information to other cells, how is this information stored and held within electricity?
I understand that computers use binary code to decipher information stored in the hard-drive, but how is the electrical charge decoded to pick and sort through the information. There are also things we know that we will never unlearn "assuming we stay sane", how is this information stored? Is it through constant sub conscious remembrance that it stays relevant? Or does our brain act like a hard drive which stores information in our brain leaving a physical imprint?
2 AnswersPsychology5 years agoRelationship problems, guy with a serious question.?
Everyone has a unique story of their personal life, some more significant than others in means of severity. But then again severity is subjective to the individual. I’m 21 years old and I’ve only been in 2 relationships, relationships as in girlfriend and boyfriend. I just got fired from our relationship today because as she said “her family matters were pre occupying her life, and she needed time to resolve them” How am I supposed to interpret such a statement? I’ve been alone for 4 years, and that alone is enough time to understand there is something different or wrong with myself that is unattractive to woman. Somewhere, there is something that is a definitive turn off to woman, and she didn’t have the “balls” to tell me what it was. She also said that she didn’t feel as strongly for me as she had when we first met. Mind you we dated for only 5 days, and she didn’t even get the time to understand the person that I actually am? She asked me to date her only after 2 days of meeting with her, if that isn’t enough to raise a red flag, I’m not sure what will. I like to believe I’m a good, down to earth guy. Someone who cares for people and willing to go to hell and back for something as simple as a thank you.
1 AnswerSingles & Dating5 years agoWhy is the media allowed to host the 2016 election debates?
I think that it may be a conflict of interest for media to host the debates. The runners may get a future look at the questions asked, may get more biased questions asked towards them, etc. They are suppose to be non-affiliated with the government entirely and yet they are the ones playing the biggest role in the elections. enlighten me as to why this is alright?

2 AnswersHealth Care6 years agoextremely sharp pain in kidneys ( not kidney stones)?
Ever since I was around 15 years old I would randomly get this pain in both of my kidneys at the same time, the same level of pain in both. The pain feels like someone grabbed to small hot knives and jabbed then right into my back twisting and turning them. It was so bad I would fall on the ground and get in the feetle position until this random episode went away. Sometime this intense pain comes in intervals then comes back for round 2, then 3,4,5 one time this lasted a solid 20 minutes. I would also holds my breath to dull the pain. AND for some reason. I couldn't help but salivate. I noticed on time this happened after eating 1/4 glass of a1 sauce, I know that's weird but I love a1. And then another time happened when I was drinking a moderate amount of vodka and mountain dew. The times before that I couldn't recall what I was doing before it happened. Thankfully this hasn't happened in about 2 years, but ever once in a while I'll feel it start to begin again and the pain would soon dissipate. I'm not sure what to think of this

3 AnswersHunting7 years agoAtheists go ahead and answer?
I don't understand it. Why do Atheists completely deny the existence of god? I can see being Agnostic because they have lack of proof the god exists so that's why they don't believe. But even if you were given 100% proof that a god does exist you would still deny it? It is totally impossible, maybe even insane to say a god doesn't exist because you simply have no proof. We still have no proof that aliens exists yet some of you believe they do because of the infiniteness of space and it seems "selfish". and please, bash Christianity because that's what I asked for..no please just answer the question like a normal person who would rather not argue and spew they're biased beliefs. thanks!
