It’s not really sitting though is it…

We are kind of unique in our ability to sit on chairs, the majority of animals throughout evolutionary history have some form of tail. Imagine we meet aliens and every species is incapable of sitting on a chair, it’d make start trek look a little foolish.

The Mercator scale on maps makes everything equatorial look tiny compared to northern and southern latitudes.

It’s occasionally a survival strategy, rodents will eat their young if they are exposed to high levels of stress immediately after giving birth. Some sharks do it in vitro with their siblings. Edit, higher mammels tend to offer up the ability to sustain the young as a valuable survival trait, except male lions, if a male lion takes over a pride the first thing it does is kill all the cubs so the females go into heat sooner. Nature is harsh.

You didn’t have to make it to adulthood, if you made it to five you would likely see fifty on average. Edit, apologies that it still leaves an average. Second edit, it’s also theorised that children don’t like the taste of vegetables until they reach puberty, children are predisposed not to eat plant matter as they are incapable of knowing whether or not it will kill them.

The one with water above oil.

This is incorrect, oil is lighter than water so one instance is impossible.

Edit, I’m wrong about all of this, there is no instance where water is above oil, apologies.
