Science
Research findings, viral studies, and scientific claims under the lens.
If a topological space X is second countable, then every open cover of X has a countable subcover (i.e., X is Lindelöf).
NOT BS
The formula of the mortar used in construction in the Roman Empire is still unknown.
TOTAL BS
The Jacobian conjecture is true.
TOTAL BS
Every infinite set contains a countably infinite subset.
MOSTLY BS
At least one particle can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum.
TOTAL BS
Extraterrestrial life exists somewhere in the universe.
MOSTLY BS
A metric space is compact if and only if it is complete and totally bounded.
NOT BS
Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy is a common analytical method in pharmaceutical science.
NOT BS
Remote sensing can improve food production.
NOT BS
Microbial fuel cells can potentially be used to treat wastewater while generating electricity.
NOT BS
When writing a chemical formula, the core rule for deciding element order is to write the more electropositive (lower electronegativity) element first and the more electronegative element last.
SOME BS
In real molecular structures, chemical bonds are not physically curved, and the curved appearance of bonds is solely an artifact of the limitations of physical ball-and-stick model kits.
MOSTLY BS
In most soils, low-molecular-weight root exudates such as sugars and amino acids are largely consumed by soil microorganisms within hours to a few days after release.
NOT BS
Genetic factors explain more variation in human immune system traits than environmental factors do.
MOSTLY BS
The Neptune Deep project is expected to produce about 8 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year.
NOT BS
Tidal energy is more predictable than many other renewable energy sources because it is based on a natural, regularly recurring process.
NOT BS
In piglets weaned at 27 days of age, the dietary standardized ileal digestible (SID) methionine-to-lysine ratio has no significant effect on average daily weight gain.
TOTAL BS
Nucleotides are the monomers of DNA and RNA and each nucleotide includes a phosphate group.
NOT BS
Essential oils with higher oxygen content have a higher refractive index than essential oils with lower oxygen content.
MOSTLY BSNo checks match that verdict.
