[Music] where is it oh here you are my childhood friend my inspiration for becoming a doctor [Music] did you hear that my friends even after so many years it's working fine both the stethoscope as well as my heart so let me take this opportunity and tell you about a vital organ in your body a symbol of love and nature's wonder known as the heart and how it works zoom in [Music] everyone knows that the heart is one of the most vital organs of the human body and is located on the middle left side of your
chest but do you know about its essential function well the heart's important job is to pump blood through the circulatory system thus providing the oxygen rich blood required for staying alive staying alive staying alive ha ha ha staying oops sorry my favorite song so where will we oh yes how does your heart work close in the human heart is made up of four different chambers the upper chambers are called the left and right atrium and the bottom chambers are known as the left and right ventricles it all starts in the upper right atrium where the
deoxygenated blood enters the heart from there the blood goes through the tricuspid valve to the secondary chamber called the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the left direction through the pulmonary valve and then through the pulmonary artery directly into the lungs that's where the blood mixes with the oxygen then the oxygenated blood travels back through the pulmonary vein into the left atrium and finally through the mitral valve into the fork chamber called the left ventricle and then pumped out to the rest of your body phew that's a long journey save your time did you
know your heart pumps about 2 000 gallons of blood every day also your heart beats about 100 000 times in one day and approximately 35 million times a year during an average lifetime the human heart will beat more than 2.5 billion times [Music] until next time it's me dr minox zooming out staying alive staying alive bye [Music] hmm that was close yeah thank you doctor oh no little kitty don't thank me instead thanks to my brain oh hello friends yes you heard it right the reason we can do all these awesome things in our lives
is due to an essential organ in our body called the brain so today let us learn about this vital subject that helps us to learn about the vital subjects and explore the amazing world of the brain zoom in your brain is basically the boss of your body as it controls everything you do things like learning thinking feeling dancing even breathing and your heart rate it's due to your brain you can pull pranks on your siblings and friends and you won't believe but not even supercomputer can match its powerful ability to download understand and react to
the volume of information coming to you through your senses so how does the brain manage all this different parts of your brain control different functions so let us start with the largest part called the cerebrum that takes up to 85 percent of your brain it's actually the thinking part of your brain and controls your muscles it's due to the cerebrum you can walk dance play games and most importantly learn about various subjects on the dr binock show isn't it cool friends next comes a relatively small portion but an essential part of your brain called the
cerebellum which helps you to maintain your balance and regulates motor movements that means without the cerebellum you would be falling all over the place now comes a small but a mighty force to be reckoned with the brain stem that is connected to the spinal cord it controls those areas of your body that you don't need to work on like breathing maintaining your heart rate digesting food etc without us even knowing about it then comes a little almond-shaped area of your brain called the amygdala it is responsible for emotions survival instincts and helps to store memories
of events wow a small part with big responsibilities trivia time did you know that your brain generates about 12 to 25 watts of electricity that is enough to power a low voltage led light also scientists have recently discovered that for a period of time after you have exercised your body produces a chemical that makes your brain more willing to learn so if you're stuck on some difficult homework go out and run play or exercise around for a while then tackle the problem again you might discover that you're much more able to solve it until next
time it's me dr binox zooming out [Music] breakfast check clothes check sunscreen oh oh oh my god i forgot to bring the sunscreen i need to go back and bring it or else my smooth shiny teal skin will get burnt due to uv rays oh hello friends as you can see i'm going to bring a bottle of sunscreen until the time i reach home let me take you under the surface of the skin so zoom in or should i say zoom under well friends we all have skin and it serves multiple purposes like it is
an essential barrier or a first line of protection against the outside environment it is a crucial part of one of our five senses it absorbs sunlight for vitamin d and heat and controls our internal temperature and permits the sensations of touch heat and cold but how does it work well your skin is made up of three layers the epidermis dermis and hypodermis let's start with the first layer known as epidermis the epidermis is the outer layer of skin and is made up mainly of skin cells the cells on the very outer layer of the epidermis
are constantly dying and getting replaced by new cells every four weeks as the new cells are formed the older ones are pushed up once they reach the surface area they provide a waterproof barrier from the invading microbes and other external forces the epidermis also contains melanin that sets the tone of your skin more the melanin the darker the skin melanin also helps to protect from harmful sun rays but it has its limits and that's why we need some sunscreen now let's go to the second layer known as the dermis the dermis contains tough connective tissue
hair follicles sweat glands and nerve endings through which the skin sends the messages to the brain about all the things you touch then the brain and the nervous system decides how to respond towards it for example if you touch something too hot your nervous system will tell your brain to move away from it the dermis also contains the sweat glands where the sweat is generated and poured out all the way through the epidermis where the sweat comes out of the holes called pores that helps to regulate your body's temperature and the last part of your
skin layer is called the hypodermis also known as subcutaneous tissue and is made up of fat and connective tissue the hypodermis primary function is to store fat the body needs some level of fat to cushion and protect your bones and organs also it helps us to keep our body nice and warm trim your time did you know that your skin is the largest organ in your body it occupies nearly 1.73 square meters or more than 18.5 square feet to cover our flesh and bones and makes up about 16 percent of our body weight hope you
enjoyed today's episode until next time it's me dr binox zooming out oh goodness me hmm never mind hey friends excuse me [Music] it feels so good to attend the call of nature hey i'm sorry to leave you in the middle of our conversation but it always is important not to hold your pee for a longer period as it might cause certain complications but first it's essential to know how your urinary system works so without wasting more time let's zoom in the urinary system comes into play for the disposal of liquid waste our bodies keep generating
a lot of hazardous and unwanted liquid waste these are toxic waste products which will circulate in our blood until disposed of and as excess water can be waste too our body gets rid of it through the urinary system so how does it work the urinary system starts here in our kidneys these organs are located in the upper abdominal area against the back muscles on both the left and right side of the body that acts like filter devices for our body when the blood passes through the kidneys it gets cleaned and separates the waste compound this
waste combines with excess water makes urine which we generally call p after that the urine is pumped down through a couple of tubes called the urethras leading to the bladder a pouch like organ that holds the pee until the body is ready to get rid of it and you feel like going to the bathroom and finally the bladder contracts and pushes the p into another tube we call the urethra which carries the p out of the body trivia time did you know if you make the habit of holding your pee for ages you're subjecting yourself
to severe long-term effects including a higher risk of infection constantly holding in your pee can weaken your bladder muscles which could lead to urinary retention a dreaded condition that prevents you from being able to fully empty your bladder when you pee and makes you feel like peeing a lot so in the interest of long-term health it's not a good habit to hold your pee for too long but fortunately for the short term your brain and body have got you covered until next time it's me dr binox zooming out [Music] oh no the food [Music] i
almost burnt my food but thanks to my invisible nose that i was able to smell it before it was too late speaking of nose do you know how it works if not don't worry my friends let's be nosy and find out some interesting facts about an impressive part of our body we call the nose zoom in well friends as we all know that your nose lets you smell breathe and is the main gate for the respiratory system and it all starts with the nostrils which is the entrance point of your nose separated by a wiggly
wall in the middle called the septum made of a very thin piece of skin and bone known as the cartilage right behind your nose is a space called the nasal cavity that connects with the back of the throat as you inhale the air through your nostrils it enters the nasal passages and travels into your nasal cavity then the air moves downwards to the trachea generally known as the windpipe all the way to the lungs then the whole process occurs in reverse order as you exhale the air out but your nose is not limited to acting
as a passageway for air it also warms moistens and filters the air before it goes to the lungs with the help of a moist thin layer of tissue called a mucous membrane which makes mucus that sticky stuff in your nose commonly known as snot [Music] the snot works with your hair to trap unwanted small particles like dust and germs that could be harmful to your lungs when this captured dirt dries up along with mucus you get boogers so we need to appreciate these boogers as they are formed in the process of protecting your lungs but
sometimes your nose traps something you wanted to get rid of and you know what happens next you sneeze i know you must be wondering but where is the smelling pot well the reason you can smell different things around you is because of the olfactory epithelium the olfactory epithelium contains special receptors that notice the smell and sends the signals along the olfactory nerve to the olfactory bulb and finally those signals go to the other parts of the brain to be interpreted as a smell you may recognize like food fruits flowers or smelly socks truly amazing isn't
it trim your time did you know an osmia is the inability to perceive odour or a lack of functioning olfaction the loss of the sense of smell endosphere may be temporary but some forms such as from an accident can be permanent anosmia can happen due to many factors including inflammation of the nasal mucosa blockage of nasal passages or destruction of one temporal lobe hope you enjoyed today's episode until next time it's me dr binox zooming out never mind hey friends good to see you all as you can see i'm in a salon for a haircut
speaking of hair have you ever wondered why do we have hair not only on our heads but also all over our body so by the time i get my hair done let me take you on an exciting journey of hair and find the answer to this tangled question how does your hair grow zoom in so friends there are two main reasons why we have hair on our heads [Music] firstly hair helps to keep your head warm and second it helps to cushion your skull a bit in case you bump your head while playing but what
about other visible hair what are they there for depending on where it is hair has different responsibilities like the eyelashes protect your eyes by limiting the amount of light and dust that go into them and eyebrows protect your eyes from sweat dripping down from your forehead [Music] now that we know some of the reasons why we have hair let's look at how hair grows [Music] well no matter on what part of your body hair is it all starts under your skin that has tube-like tiny holes called hair follicles and at the bottom of each follicle
is the hair bulb that contains active hair growing cells made up of a protein small blood vessels in the skin give the root nutrients to help with cell growth allowing the hair to grow and as the head begins to grow it pushes up from the root and out of the follicle and eventually breaks through the surface of the skin and finally you can see the hair the visible part of the hair is known as shaft and once the hair is at the skin surface the cells within the strand of hair aren't alive anymore and contains
dead cells that's why it doesn't hurt when you get a haircut if the hair cells was still alive a haircut would be very unpleasant trim your time did you know you have more than 100 000 hair on top of your head but you lose some every day and you lose nearly 50 to 100 strands of hair every day while you're washing your hair combing it or even when you do nothing but don't worry your body has covered it for you as new hair regularly replaces those that have fallen out in its journey each hair grows
around two to six years and rests for a few months before it finally falls out just to be replaced by a new hair growing from the same hair follicle this cycle of hair helps to maintain just the right number of hair on your head or these results would have been hilarious [Music] hope you enjoyed today's episode and until next time it's me dr binox zooming out oh gosh ah never mind [Music] gosh whoa hope you're fine little kitty oh i see your nails caused the slit in the sofa oh okay little kitty we will visit
the cat salon soon and give you a nice pedicure [Music] hey friends just like little kitty we hardly notice about our nails unless it causes some trouble or you want to paint them or your mom asks you to cut it short but do you know that your nails have a vital job to do so today let us learn about this nail-biting topic and explore the hard surface of essential tools attached to your fingers called nails zoom in so friends a nail is a horn-like envelope that not only protects the tip of your fingers and toes
from injuries but it also makes it easier to scratch an edge but mostly just by observing the condition of your nails doctors can get clues about your health condition but whatever people do with their nails they are made of the same material called keratin keratin is the same protein that makes up hair and outer layer of the skin but how do the nails grow [Music] nails start growing behind your u-shaped cuticle in the root area of the nail called the matrix the matrix is loaded with specialized cells that keep dividing and creating nail cells these
nail cells grow and produce the protein called keratin then these protein filled with new cells force the old ones to get packed together and pushed up through the skin as the new cells continue to form behind them [Music] eventually once they come out they lose the ability to multiply and die to form the visible part of your nail known as the nail plate that lies on the nail bed the part underneath your nails drive your time did you know the small whitish half moon shape that you sometimes see at the bottom of your nails is
called the lunula it gets its name from the latin word for moon luna [Music] also it's necessary to trim your nails on a regular basis because when you play in the mud or scratch your skin little dust and dirt particles get under the nail and skin this dirt may mix with your food if you fail to clean your hands thoroughly and cause diseases hope you enjoyed today's episode and until next time it's me dr binox zooming out ah never mind did you hear that friends i think someone needs help let's follow the sound and find
out [Music] [Applause] oh no little kitty say thanks to my sharp ears that were able to detect your squeaky voice despite loud music playing in the background speaking of years have you ever wondered how you could hear what i say and all the noise around you don't worry if you have not because i'm here to explain so zoom in [Music] the ability to accurately identify sound is possible due to the auditory system that is comprised of your ears and the brain the year's job is to convert the sound energy into a neutral signal which later
is received by your brain through three parts of the ear the outer ear the middle ear and the inner ear but the big question is how does it work well it all starts with the sound waves falling on the outer part of your ear known as the pinna that acts as a funnel and sends the sound into the yellow canal another part of your outer ear and heads towards the middle part of your ear hitting the eardrum a very delicate piece of tightly stretched skin making it vibrate like the head of an actual drum this
vibrating eardrum shakes a tiny chain of three bones called the ossicle that starts with a hammer and passes through the angle and moves the third bone known as tapes or stirrup but it's not over yet once the sound passes the middle ear through the ossicle it travels into the cochlea a small circular tube filled with liquid situated in the inner ear the vibration caused by the ossicles create waves in the cochlear fluid converting the sound vibration into liquid vibration [Music] the cochlea consists of many hair and when the fluid in the cochlea moves it moves
this tiny hair creating nerve signals that get sent through the auditory nerve into the brain the brain processes these signals as sound and so you hear it's trim your time did you know that cochlear means snail in latin the cochlea gets its name from its unique coiled up shape that looks like a snail shell i bet that was the first thing that came to your mind when you saw it also not all living creatures heal with ears snakes use jaw bones fish respond to pressure changes and male mosquitoes use antenna hope you enjoyed today's episode
and until next time it's me dr bynox zooming out come little kitty let's go for a warm kitty kitty kitty kitty [Music] [Applause] thank you doctor oh no little kitty don't thank me thanks to my healthy set of shiny teeth that enabled me to crush the hard layer of the invincible walnut like it's nothing oh you're already here my friends i'm sure you witnessed the jaw-dropping strength of my teeth so today let us speak into our mouth and explode the chewy world of bony enameled coated structures in the jaws we call the teeth zoomid so
friends as we all know your teeth help you cue your food while eating assist you while talking and makes you look better when you flash a smile for those selfies but there is a lot about this essential tool we call the teeth you probably don't know so first let us know about the types parts the ins and outs of teeth although you are born with 20 baby teeth they aren't visible until they start to come through the gums when you are about 6 to 12 months old and by the time you are 2 to 3
years of age all the teeth will usually appear this process called teething and the new set of teeth are called the primary teeth baby teeth or melted and as you get older around five to six years of age these primary teeth begin to fall one after the other this happens because it is being pushed out of the way by the permanent tooth that is behind it and gradually replaces the primary teeth [Music] by the time you are around 12 or 13 most of you have lost all your baby teeth and have a full set of
permanent teeth but it's not over yet between the age of 17 and 25 most of you will have four teeth called wisdom teeth that grow at the back of the mouth to complete the adult set of 32 shiny white teeth these 32 set are divided into four different types let's start with the incisors these are your eight front teeth with four on the top and four at the bottom they help you to cut your food into small pieces making it easier to swallow next comes the canine these are the sharp pointy teeth next to your
incisors there are two on the bottom and two on the top they help you tear food especially chewy foods like meat then comes premolars also called bicuspids located next to your canine teeth they are somewhat flat with ridges on top there are four on each side and helps you to crush and grind the food you eat as they are stronger than your incisors and canines but not the strongest because that title goes to the molars located in the back of your mouth and there are four on both the top and the bottom finally comes the
fifth type of tooth that is somewhat rare in most people is the third molar also known as wisdom tooth wisdom teeth sometimes can be removed because they can crowd and damage other teeth causing pain trim your time did you know experts believe that wisdom teeth may have been needed by people millions of years ago who had larger jaws and ate food that required a lot of chewing like raw meat also did you know that right-handed people chew food on the right side of their mouths and left-handed people chew food on the left side if not
then do observe your friends and family's eating pattern but do not go too close to their mouth or else it will be awkward for them [Music] hope you enjoyed today's episode and until next time it's me dr binox zooming out ah never mind oh sure little kitty it is indeed very yummy hey friends would you like to have some ice cream with us [Music] whoa that tasted really good speaking of taste do you know how your tongue allows you to experience different flavors of the things you eat lick and bite well today let us find
the answer to this mouth-watering question and explode the tasty world of the tongue so zoom in [Music] as we all know your tongue is a muscular organ that helps you perceive the taste and texture of food assist you to create speech while talking and is vital for jump-starting the digestive process when you eat first let us talk about the talking as i am already talking [Music] tongues amazing flexibility and movability enable you to speak without it it will be tough to pronounce words for instance just try to say i love dr bynox without using your
tongue go ahead try it there you go i'm sure you must be having a difficult time saying it that's because the tongue is essential for articulating the consonants t t l or the rolling r when pronouncing the letter k and g the tongue is slightly narrowed at the back and when we say s the tip of the tongue moves backward also the tongue being extremely movable helps us eat it enables us to turn solid food into a mash with the support of your teeth and while the teeth grind the food it gets mixed with saliva
also known as spit this mixture of food and saliva then get pushed by your tongue to the back of the throat where it goes down through your esophagus and into your stomach next comes an essential feature of your tongue that is tasting most people mistake the rough bumpy structure on the surface of the tongue as taste buds but these are papilli and it's actually papilli that contains the taste buds that help you taste everything and you can detect the variety of flavors like sweet bitter sour and salty but it won't be possible to enjoy these
flavors without the amazing smelling powers of the nose as taste and smell are interdependent so do not forget to learn about the incredible nose in one of our previous videos we are sharing the link below trivia time did you know there are between three thousand and ten thousand taste buds on the human tongue the taste receptors on our tongue can't really taste our food until the saliva in a mouth has moistened it also some animals like frogs chameleons and ant eaters have tongues that are designed to help them catch their prey their tongue is usually
extra large and extends out of their mouth to grab insects but the largest tongue among all animals is that of the blue whale their tongue weighs an average of 2.7 metric tons [Music] hope you enjoyed today's episode and until next time it's me dr binox zooming out ah nevermind [Music] hey friends as you can see i was exercising to grow some muscles as it needs constant attention but before you jump into the exercising zone and start working out you need to learn about muscles and how they grow so zoom in muscles you have over 600
of them they come in all shapes and sizes to bind you hold you together and help you move and lift heavy backpacks you control some of your muscles while others do their jobs without you thinking about them at all but one thing is sure and that is they need your regular attention because the way you treat them will determine their condition if they will grow or shrink with time but the big question is how do the muscles grow imagine you are about to lift a box of yummy cookies your brain and muscles are aligned to
help you to do the task at hand first your brain will send signals to the motor neurons in your body when they receive the message they cause the muscles to contract and relax which pull on the bones in your body resulting in needed movement but what if this box is filled with stones at this point your arm muscles will find it hard to generate enough tension to lift and exposing it to stress causing little damage which in this case is a good thing these damage cells then release inflammatory molecules called cytokines that activate the immune
system to repair the injury this is where your muscles building process happens the more the damage to the muscle tissues the more your body needs to fix itself eventually making your muscle bigger and stronger [Music] but your muscles depend on more than just exercising or playing to grow without proper nutrition and rest it will be hard for your body to repair the damaged muscle fibers so play eat sleep repeat that's the mantra for a healthy body trivia time did you know that there are three different types of muscles in your body smooth muscle cardiac muscle
and skeletal muscle skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles which means you can control what they do whereas smooth and cardiac muscles are involuntary muscles that mean they move on their own without thinking about them hope you enjoyed today's episode and until next time it's me dr binox zooming out never mind
