MOST EXPENSIVE LIQUIDS IN THE WORLD

SCORPION VENOM:
The deathstalker is one of the most dangerous scorpions on the planet, and what makes it so dangerous also happens to be the most expensive liquid in the world.  This stuff costs $39 million per gallon. Now, even if you had the money, you couldn't just go and buy a gallon of the stuff, because you can only get it in tiny, minuscule amounts. $130 will get you a droplet that's smaller than a grain of sugar.
      One scorpion produces, at the most, just two milligrams of venom at a time. So, let's do the math. If you owned one scorpion you would have to milk it 2.64 million times to fill a gallon. This venom is used to fight against multiple sclerosis. In addition, it has been found that when consumed it can stop the growth of cancer cells. It costs Rs.72 crore per litter.

KING COBRA VENOM :
Their venom is not the most potent among venomous snakes, but the amount of neurotoxin they can deliver in a single bite—up to two-tenths of a fluid ounce—is enough to kill 20 people or even an elephant. 
     King cobra venom affects the respiratory centres in the brain, causing respiratory arrest and cardiac failure. One of the unique properties of this neurotoxin poison is the restoration of nerve cells in the brain. It is used to combat Parkinson's, Alzheimer’s and Schizophrenia. It costs Rs.28.28 lakh per litter.

LYSERGIC ACID DIETHYLAMIDE:
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), is a hallucinogenic drug. Effects typically include altered thoughts, feelings, and awareness of one's surroundings. Dilated pupils, increased blood pressure, and increased body temperature are typical. LSD does not appear to be addictive. Its frequent use can cause acute tolerance, requiring much larger doses to feel an effect. One of the most powerful drugs in the world. Just 1L can send 1 million people to ‘Journey ‘. It costs Rs.23.13 lakh per litter.

HORSESHOE CRAB BLOOD:
Horseshoe crabs are older than the dinosaurs. They helped to keep most of us alive. If you have ever had a vaccine, chances are that it was tested for safety using horseshoe crab blood. And they're about to save even more lives because they're playing their part in the creation of a Covid-19 injection. It contains a protein molecule that causes various bacteria to clot. It costs Rs.11.3 lakh per litre. 

PERFUME CHANNEL NO. 5:
Chanel No. 5 was the first perfume launched by a French couturier. The scented formula for the fragrance was compounded by French-Russian chemist and perfumer Ernest Beaux. The design of its bottle has been an important part of the product's allure. Probably the most famous fragrance in the world. It costs Rs.4.97 lakh per litre.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...
