Scientist spends most of their time doing extensive researches about different topics. But the hardest of all is to find something to investigate. Fortunately for Roman Stocker, an expert in fluid mechanics at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, was very easy to find. One day he was in his own house watching its cat drink it milk… how simple… and he was wondering… how cats drink liquids so fast?, and how they do it?. By this observation he began to study the dynamic of cat’s tongue in concern about the ability of drink fluids to a high speed. With help from some of his graduate students he forms a group of investigation. The method of study was recorded every time the cat drinks from its bowl to a regulated speed, so the effect could be seen in slow motion. In the process was observed that in every lap, the cat in study took little amounts of milk, rapidly. Of course like in every study there were other subjects, e.g a bigger cat. From this, Roman Stocker and his disciples observe that in this case the cat lap more slowly than the first or smaller cat but the milk columns were thicker. About this they came to the conclusion that like the larger cat can drink more milk for lap then it is no necessary to make laps so rapidly like the other cat, and that way… and this is a personal opinion… the cat can save energies for other functions.
About this subject it’s still on research and it is also the manufacture of a model tongue cat.

Ceci,
very interesting... who would have thought?
