"Humans are spillproof coffee mugs, researchers say"

[-] MsPenguinette@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

There are seven natural body openings or orifices providing access to an internal cavity through a natural passage called a canal, duct or meatus.

Sir, you are no coffee mug, you are a much more. You have 7 holes. 7 genus. 6 more holes than a boring old donut. Appreciate yourself!

you got so many holes

But topologically, most of them don't perforate the body. Only really the mouth-anus connection does. And additionally, for humans, the nose-throat-mouth connection, because oddly, the nose-lung and mouth-butt cavities interconnect. (Which is not the case for many other species.)

in addition to mouth anus, and mouth nose, there is also a nose eye connection (as with nose for left and right hole respectively). Depending how broken your eardrums are these would be further connections. So def. more than a donut.

If your eyeballs have a cavity-connection to your nose, you should see a doctor.

From hole 6 or hole 7?

Scientists say "Scientific statements are meaningless when taken out of context."
