Platypus Mammal
There are many types of lethal venom in the animal kingdom, but
perhaps no stranger carrier than the platypus. The platypus is one of few
venomous mammals. Males carry a venom cocktail in their ankle spurs
that paralyzes victims with excruciating pain. Stranger still, the platypus
is the only mammal that uses electroreception. What this means is that
the platypus uses its bill to sense the electricity produced by the
muscular movements of its prey. The platypus neither sees, hears, nor
smells its prey while hunting but, rather, pursues it through
electroreception. Perhaps most odd, the platypus is the only mammal
that lays eggs rather than giving birth to live young. The platypus is an
odd creature indeed.

How Does a Car stop ?
Screech! When a driver pushes on the brake pedal, it
starts a process that causes the vehicle to stop. You literally
trust braking systems with your life every time you get into a
vehicle or cross a busy intersection, but how does this process
work? It begins when the pedal is pushed. At this moment
brake fluid is released into the area where the braking
mechanisms are located. As the fluid collects, leverage is
created, which causes a friction to be applied. If the braking
system is functioning properly, this friction will create a force
that will cause the wheels to stop and allow you to reach your
