The process of drinking by unicellular organisms is called pinocytosis. Cells take in drops of liquid outside the cell. They take in meager drops of extra-cellular fluids.
for most fluids it takes about 10 drops to equal 1 ml 1 fluid ounce (US) equals 29.56 ml or about 296 drops so 1000 drops is about 3. 35 fluid ounces more or less.
A capillary puncture is a medical procedure where a tool called a "lancet"(a small needle on a spring inside of a piece of plastic) is used to make a small cut in the side of your finger to collect a few drops of blood for testing. Or outside of a doctors office or hospital, you stabbed one of your fingers or toes on a needle or thorn.
1400 mL x 15 drops per mL = 21000 total drops "per day" assumes 24 hours. 24 hours x 60 minutes per hour = 1440 minutes in one day 21000 total drops divided by 1440 minutes = 14.58 drops per minute (round up to 15 drops per minute)
"Drop" is not a standardized measurement, and will vary from dropper to dropper (and potentially from liquid to liquid). Your best bet is to take your dropper, put an ounce of liquid in it, and calibrate it by counting the drops.
your brain gives off a signal that causes your eye to drip. then the same signal goes to your nose and causes it's fluids to run.
If there's any CO2 in it at the time, it all leaks out. As the gas escapes, it expands, cools, and the pressure in the canister drops.
you probably have a cold. drink fluids and rest rest rest. cough drops would help for the sore throat.
Your face begans to swell up, and you grow approximetly 2 centmiters taller. Also, the angle of your view in your eyes drops from 10 to 15. & the blood fluids in your face are restructible. :)
It is imperative that immediate treatment take place with regards to the replacement of fluids and electrolytes. Burn victims lose massive amounts of fluid and can go into hypovolemic shock, that is the volume of blood in the circulatory sytem drops due to the leaking of fluids through the increased porosity endothelial cells of capilaries.
== == There are about 20 drops of water in 1 milliliter. Eye drops are about the same. For other liquids, the number depends on the viscosity of the liquid, which affects the average drop size. Thicker, more viscous fluids are likely to produce larger drops and therefore fewer drops per milliliter. Note that 1 milliliter is equal to 1 cc.
