"Brain death and Coma" - are they the same?

People often confuse Brain death with coma, because they look similar to the eye.


Usually, the Brain has 2 parts:

1.Cortex: handles major functions of the body
2. Brain Stem: consciousness

🧠When a person meets with an accident then if the cortex damages then the person can't move or do any activities like a sleeping person or a paralyzed person, but he lives and breaths because the bain stem is not damaged.

🧠But if the brain stem gets damaged a person can't breathe unless the person is on life support (ventilator).

🧠So that the person's heart pumps the blood to the organs which keeps the organs alive for more days, but the brain is not alive and the person is considered dead. They don't know that the brain has died because the heart has its own pacemaker. The only thing it needs is an adequate supply of oxygen. That's what a ventilator does

🧠The only major difference between brian dead and a coma is that person in a coma can wake up at any time but a braindead person cant wake up.

🧠The only useful thing that can be done with a brain-dead person is donating the persons' organs and save other's lives.

Does love at first sight exist, does it really happen?💑

 Before answering this question first of all lets us know what really love means. 💑Most people think love is nothing but holding hands and feeling butterflies for each other and looking into each other eyes. 💑People think love is nothing but ROMANCE and think about the person very often. 💑And there are many assumptions people have about love,  but love is respecting others and their decisions. 💑Love is more about RESPONSIBILITY than ROMANCE. 💑This responsibility ,   respect ,  and caring  don't usually come the first time when you see a person. 💑It is probably attraction that people confuse with love when they see an attractive person. You only  get attracted to the physical appearance whether it may be the body or the face. 💑But love is more about some inner stuff. Whether the person is ugly or whether the person may be unattractive or may not be hot enough, you can still love the person by some inner personality. 💑Physical attraction is tempora...

Do we catch cold because of eating ice-cream /getting wet/cold weather/drinking cool drinks?🥶

All of us would have caught a cold now and then. 🤧And most likely we get cold in cool weather or after drinking a cool drink or after eating ice cream or getting wet in the rain. 🤧This disease is so common and mild that even its name has been changed to the common cold.   🤧This common cold is caused by a virus called rhinovirus (rhinitis). 🤧We get attacked by this virus in any weather conditions, whether it may be summer, autumn, rainy, or winter. 🤧But we get this virus quite often in cold weather like in the rainy or winter season. 🤧Because this virus thrives more at a temperature of 37°C, and our nasal cavity has a temperature of 33°C which makes them more active and helps them reproduce rapidly.  🤧This virus also replicates rapidly in water so as in rainy season. 🤧Major reason why  we get cold is by inhaling droplets released by affected person or by touching objects which has this virus on them. 🤧Okay fine but then what is the problem with ice creams and cold...
