Research findings, viral studies, and scientific claims under the lens.
Claim:
MRI and fMRI neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that certain mental illnesses are associated with abnormal activity in specific brain regions involved in fear, emotional regulation, and decision-making.
NOT BS
Claim:
The AGS cell line is derived from human gastric adenocarcinoma.
NOT BS
Claim:
Enzymes in the human body have changed their chemical structures in order to survive in an OH⁻-rich internal environment.
TOTAL BS
Claim:
Human activity has significantly altered the natural balance of the carbon cycle, especially since the Industrial Revolution.
NOT BS
Claim:
The ocean stores more carbon than the atmosphere.
NOT BS
Claim:
Photosynthesis by plants, algae, and some bacteria removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and converts it into sugars using sunlight.
NOT BS
Claim:
Carbon is an essential building block of life.
NOT BS
Claim:
Artificial intelligence methods can be used to select the optimal mining method for a given mineral deposit.
NOT BS
Claim:
Mars was much more volcanically active early in its history than it is today.
NOT BS
Claim:
"Dihydrogen dioxide" is an incorrect or nonstandard name for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in chemical nomenclature.
MOSTLY BS
Claim:
In English chemical nomenclature, when a compound contains more than one cation or more than one anion, the ion names should be listed in alphabetical order (A–Z).
MOSTLY BS
Claim:
A dioxygen molecule (O2) has a bent (curved) molecular geometry.
TOTAL BS
Claim:
In a ball-and-stick model of oxygen gas (O2), the bond between the two oxygen atoms is curved because of technical issues with the plastic stick.
MOSTLY BS
Claim:
Supernova explosions create and scatter elements heavier than iron across space.
NOT BS
Claim:
Red giants and red supergiants produce elements up to iron through nuclear fusion.
MOSTLY BS
Claim:
Hydrogen and helium were the first elements formed after the Big Bang.
NOT BS
Claim:
Stellar nucleosynthesis inside stars combines smaller nuclei into heavier elements.
NOT BS
Claim:
For a reversible Hamiltonian flow with reversor R, for any point x on a reversible orbit, the points x and R(x) are related by a conjugacy of the dynamics restricted to that orbit.
HARDLY BS
Claim:
Glow-in-the-dark luminous pearls store energy absorbed from sunlight, and their afterglow occurs because electrons trapped at lattice defects are slowly released and recombine, emitting light.
NOT BS
Claim:
Electrical resistance in microbial fuel cell circuits can be analyzed using Ohm's law (V = I·R).
NOT BS
No checks match that verdict.
