    7:38 Actually Plastic pipes used for plumbing are UPVC (Unplasticised Polyvynilchloride) that is amorphous polymer which tends to soften and become more plastic over a wide range of temperatures (Typically pliable / workable from around 120 degrees C) meaning the temps any chemical agent combined with the cooling effect of the water in the pipe is unlikely to cause any failure in the pipe.

    Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell.
    Edit: Yes, I know the importance of biology in life. My aunt is a general practitioner and my uncle is a nephrologist (kidney doctor). My grandpa was a veterinarian and later an official in the FDA. The point of the joke was to highlight the fact that the overwhelming majority of schools focus more on a part of a cell than they do on economics, finance, etc. In my years of schooling so far I have spent one unit every year since the 5th grade learning about cells and I have spent maybe 2 or three weeks total learning about economics and how to manage one’s finances.

    At one minute 8 seconds. Yes but with mine it was an easy fix for the little adhesive and then now gorilla glue. This is the third video I have watched of yours within this content, thank you for taking the time in effort with making the video.

      And I bet if you cut out all the fat; lunch, inbetween class time, work time and bathroom breaks, etc. You would have like 4 hours.

      Well the problem isn't that you learn useless information, but rather the education system doesn't inspire the students to learn/ to remember what they learn. There are a lot of problems with American schools, but they are solvable and important.
