00:30Oh my God!
00:35This was so much fun!
00:38Yes, it certainly was.
00:41But Tia, why do I taste salt in my mouth?
00:48Why is the sea water salty?
00:51When the rain flows over the land,
00:54the water washes salt and other minerals out of the rocks
00:59and gets mixed with the water in the streams, rivers etc.
01:08The rivers finally carry the salt to the sea.
01:12The salt stays in the sea as no water flows out of the sea.
01:18When the sea water evaporates to form clouds,
01:22almost all the salt stays behind.
01:26The left behind salt slowly gets collected over a period of time
01:32and this is how sea water gets salty.
01:45Oh! That is the reason we cannot drink sea water.
01:49It's too salty.
01:53Yes, almost 96% of water on earth is in the oceans.
02:01And still we cannot drink it directly.
02:08Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink.
02:12Good job to drink!
02:13Hahaha!
02:42Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
02:44Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
02:45Before telling you why trees shed their leaves,
02:47Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
02:48Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
02:52Before telling you why trees shed their leaves,
02:54Do you know, Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
02:59Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
03:05Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
03:09Tia, why do trees lose their leaves in the autumn season?
03:12Before telling you why trees shed their leaves,
03:15Do you know, tofu, how trees get their energy?
03:20Energy?
03:21Yes, energy.
03:23Just like we eat food to get energy,
03:26Trees make their food too to get energy.
03:30How do they make their food?
03:32Trees use sunlight from the sun
03:38and water from the ground to make their food.
03:44The leaves use the sunlight and water to make food.
03:50But I didn't understand why do they shed leaves?
03:56When the winter set in,
03:58the days become shorter
04:00and the sunlight is hardly available.
04:05So when sunlight is not available,
04:07the trees cannot make food.
04:09Rather than continuing to make food with little sunlight,
04:14they go in a rest position by shedding their leaves.
04:18This way they use very little energy and have just enough water and nutrition stored in their trunk to stay alive till spring arrives.
04:33When spring arrives, the temperature goes up and there is more sunlight.
04:38New leaves grow and cover the tree once more.
04:47Oh!
04:49But why do I see some trees not shedding their leaves all throughout the year?
04:54That's because there are some tree species that retain their leaves all throughout winters.
05:03They are called evergreen trees.
05:06That's because these trees are used to the cold and have very deep roots that can reach water and nutrition even in snowy conditions.
05:18Wow!
05:20After so much interesting information,
05:24I think I need some food too.
05:27Let's go and ask mum what's for dinner.
05:30Let's go and ask mum for dinner.
06:00Tofu, are you feeling sleepy?
06:06No, just tired.
06:09But Tia, what makes us yawn?
06:12And why is it so that when I see someone yawning,
06:16I kind of feel like yawning too?
06:19Yawning is an involuntary action which we all do.
06:24And we all know that it is a feature of sleeping.
06:28It is commonly associated with tiredness, stress and boredom.
06:35All vertebrates do yawn including fish and birds.
06:41Human baby starts yawning since they are 20 weeks old.
06:47So how do we do it?
06:49During a yawn, we open our mouth and we suck in a large amount of air
06:55and expand our chest.
06:59The cavity pulls down our diaphragm and fills air in our lungs and exhales it out.
07:06There are a number of theories that attempt to explain why animals and people yawn.
07:17As per the physiological theory,
07:19our bodies induce yawning in order to draw in more oxygen or remove a build up of carbon dioxide.
07:30A more recent theory explains that we yawn more in the situations where our brain is likely to be warmer.
07:38So it's a way to cool down our brain.
07:45Do you know that the average yawn lasts around 6 seconds?
07:49Yawning is contagious.
07:54Only humans, chimps and possibly dogs find them contagious.
08:00Recent studies show contagious yawning may be linked to one's capacity for understanding and sharing the feelings of others.
08:10So Tofu, how many times have you yawned while listening to me?
08:16I hope not too many.
08:40I hope not too many.
08:54What are you looking at?
08:56At the moon.
08:58It looks so beautiful.
09:02But Tia, why does the moon shine?
09:06Now that's quite interesting Tofu.
09:08Technically, the moon does not shine by itself because it has no light of its own.
09:15It appears to shine because of the sunlight that reaches it.
09:21Ah Tofu, let's go home.
09:23I'll explain you how the moon shines.
09:25Hold this ball in your hands Tofu and I'll hold this flashlight in my hand.
09:39Okay, but what do they represent?
09:42The flashlight in my hand represents the sun.
09:45The ball in your hand represents the earth and the mirror on the wall represents the moon.
09:52Do you see the mirror shining and that light getting reflected on the ball Tofu?
10:00Yes!
10:01This is what happens.
10:02The moon just reflects the light of the sun and what we see is the reflection of that light.
10:09Oh!
10:10The moon reflects only 7% of the sun's light and then glows softly.
10:20The fact that it glows softly and reflects only 7% of sun's light is that it absorbs most of the light that falls on it from the sun.
10:32Now I know why the moon looks so beautiful.
10:45Now time to sleep Tofu.
10:47Oh!
11:02Look there.
11:04It's a rainbow.
11:09Yes.
11:10A rainbow Tofu.
11:12Can you tell me all the colors in the rainbow?
11:15Violet.
11:17Indigo.
11:19Blue.
11:20Green.
11:22Yellow.
11:23Orange.
11:25And red.
11:32Vip Gyor.
11:33That's the way to remember it.
11:36All 7 colors and it looks so pretty.
11:39But how is a rainbow formed?
11:42Rainbows are spectacular rays of color.
11:45Sunlight looks white.
11:47But it's really made of different colors.
11:50A rainbow is seen when the sun shines after the rain.
11:55Hmm.
11:56White light is made of 7 colors.
12:02Wow!
12:03What's this?
12:04It's a prism.
12:05A prism.
12:06Okay.
12:07Let me explain it to you with the help of a prism.
12:14The sun forms a rainbow when white light passes through raindrops.
12:20The rain drops act like tiny prisms.
12:22When sunlight passes through a raindrop it bends and scatters into the band of colors.
12:32This can be reflected back to you as a rainbow.
12:36But where do I look for a rainbow?
12:39You need to remember three things.
12:42First, it must be raining.
12:45It must be raining.
12:47Second, the sun must be shining.
12:51The sun must be shining.
12:53Third, you must be between the sun and the rain.
13:01Okay, Tofu.
13:02Now let's enjoy watching the wonderful rainbow.
13:23Let's enjoy reading.
13:47Bless you Tofu.
13:48You're sneezing.
13:51Take this handkerchief.
13:53Why do we sneeze?
14:00Almost anything that irritates or tickles inside your nose can cause you to sneeze.
14:06Like dust, pollens, cold air, pets and pepper can cause sneezing.
14:23But what happens when we sneeze?
14:28The nose is an extremely sensitive organ that regulates the air we breathe.
14:36It makes sure we breathe clean and healthy air.
14:42Air sometimes has tiny particles that are unsuitable for us.
14:47When we sneeze, our nostrils expel the irritating particles.
15:00It could be dust, flowers, pepper bottle and pets.
15:07You can also sneeze a lot when you are suffering from cold as the lining of your nose is swollen.
15:17Sneezing can send tiny particles speeding out of your nose at up to 100 miles per hour.
15:29So what's the process?
15:32When the inside of your nose gets a tickle,
15:35a message is sent to a special part of your brain.
15:39and the brain sends a message to all the muscles that have to work together to sneeze.
15:47Did you realize that you always close your eyes when you sneeze?
15:52Really?
15:54Achy! Achy!
15:57Yes, you are right!
16:09I can't see anything Tia.
16:21Wait, I'll look for the torch.
16:29Oh, thank God!
16:30But Tia, why is it that we can't see in the dark and only in light?
16:39That's because Tofu,
16:41in order to see the eyes must receive light
16:45and darkness is the absence of light.
16:47I didn't get you Tia.
16:52Most of the objects we see around us are visible by reflected light,
17:00reflected sunlight or reflected artificial light.
17:06You are able to see these objects because light reflects
17:10and this reflected light is what becomes a mirror image in our eyes.
17:16Since darkness is the absence of light,
17:20there is no light in the darkness to be reflected from chairs,
17:25tables or people to our eyes and therefore we cannot see these objects.
17:32But we are able to see in the dark after some time.
17:36Why is that then?
17:37You have probably noticed that it is difficult to see objects inside a house
17:44when you have just come in from the bright sunlight.
17:50After you have been in the house a little while,
17:54your eyes adapt themselves to the dimmer light
17:58and you can see perfectly well.
18:00Oh, thank God!
18:08We have torches when it gets dark.
18:28Tofu, are you alright?
18:30No, just a hiccup.
18:36But why do we get hiccups?
18:39Hiccups are funny ones.
18:41Most simple cases of hiccups come after eating or drinking
18:46too much or too quickly.
18:48You must be wondering where these funny noises are coming from.
18:52The part to be blamed is your diaphragm.
18:55This is a dome-shaped muscle at the bottom of your chest.
19:02And all hiccups start here.
19:05The diaphragm helps in breathing.
19:07When you inhale, it pulls down to help pull air into the lungs.
19:18When you exhale, the diaphragm relaxes and the air flows out of the lungs back to the nose and mouth.
19:27But sometimes the diaphragm becomes irritated.
19:32When this happens, it pulls down in a jerky way which makes you suck air into your throat.
19:42Suddenly, when the air rushing in hits your voice box, you are left with a big hiccup.
19:48Do you know that almost all cases of hiccups last only a few minutes?
20:02Everyone has their own pet remedy for curing hiccups.
20:06Simply holding your breath is often effective.
20:36You are full of them.
20:37Hence the when you sweep the column towards the attic.
20:39You have to read your mouth, or even here.
20:41You have to read your mouth into the back.
20:43There's a lot of cool things about the shower.
20:44You've told me why you can't do them.
20:46Why do you want to do their soup?
20:47People buying things into the air.
20:48You have to read them through this research.
20:50You need to read them through the kampl庫.
20:52You are saying, you're going to read them.
20:55You're saying now.
20:57You're asking them to read them, you're asking them.
21:00You're asking them to read them, and then you have to read them.
21:02You're asking them to read them in a few minutes.
