Men live on average about 76 years while woman live an average of 81 years. Researchers said a similar proportional gap exists between females and males in almost every wild primate population they studied.

Read More »Humans have made great strides in increasing their longevity the past two centuries, but the gap in lifespan between men and women remains about the same. Do researchers know why? Share on Pinterest Hey men, there’s good news and bad news. The good news is we’re living decades longer than we were just a couple centuries ago. The bad news is the gap between how long men live and how long women live is still about the same. An international team of researchers published a study on Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. In it, they detailed the great strides that humans have made in longevity the past 200 years, even compared to other primates such as monkeys and apes. However, they noted, women are still outliving men by about five years, the same gap that was present in the early 1800s. That gap between male and female lifespans is also found in other primate species. And researchers aren’t entirely sure why. “It’s puzzling. If we can make life last so long, why can’t we shrink the male-female gap?” study co-author Susan Alberts, a biology professor at Duke University, said in a press release.

The study included people from industrialized countries, people born before the Industrial Age, and modern hunter-gathers. They compared the human data with lifespan records from six species of wild primates that have been studied from three to five decades. The researchers said the data shows humans are making more rapid gains in longevity than other species on the primate family tree. For example, the life expectancy for people in Sweden has jumped from the mid-30s in the early 1800s to more than 80 years today. That’s more than double in a 200-year span. Researchers attribute the leap in lifespans to modern medicine and public health facilities. In particular, they note, childbirth deaths and childhood diseases have been greatly reduced. “We’ve made a bigger journey in lengthening our lifespan over the last few hundred years than we did over millions of years of evolutionary history,” Alberts said. However, the gap between men and women hasn’t changed much. Worldwide, the average lifespan is about 71 years. Men, though, live an average of 68 years while women live an average of 73 years. In the United States, the average lifespan is almost 79 years. Men live on average about 76 years while woman live an average of 81 years. Researchers said a similar proportional gap exists between females and males in almost every wild primate population they studied. Read more: Women pay more for healthcare services than men »

Read More »Some places, such as our fingers and lips, have more touch receptors than other parts of our body, such as our backs. That is one reason why we are more sensitive to touch on our fingers and face than on our backs.
In this activity, students use a pair of chopsticks to learn that the sense of touch is not restricted to their hands and that different parts of their body have different sensitivities. The four senses of sight, hearing, smell, and taste are located in specific parts of the body. The sense of touch is located throughout the body, in your largest organ, the skin. The sense of touch originatees in the bottom layer of your skin called the dermis. The dermis is filled with many tiny nerve endings that give you information about the things your body is touching. Nerve endings do this by carrying the information to the spinal cord, which sends messages to the brain where the feeling is registered. The nerve endings in your skin can tell you if something is hot or cold. They can also feel if something is hurting you. Your body has about twenty different types of nerve endings that all send messages to your brain. However, the most common receptors are heat, cold, pain, and pressure or touch receptors. Pain receptors are probably the most important for your safety because they can protect you by warning your brain that your body is hurt. Some areas of the body are more sensitive than others because they have more nerve endings. It hurts when you bite your tongue because the sides of your tongue have a lot of nerve endings that are very sensitive to pain. Your tongue, however, is not as good at sensing hot or cold. That is why it is easy to burn your mouth when you eat something really hot. Your fingertips are also very sensitive. People who are blind use their fingertips to read Braille by feeling the patterns of raised dots on their paper.
