What part of the brain is responsible for praying?

There isn't a specific part of the brain responsible for praying. Prayer is a spiritual or religious practice that involves a combination of cognitive, emotional, and cultural factors, rather than being localized to a specific brain region. It likely involves a network of brain regions associated with cognitive processing, emotion regulation, and belief systems.


What happens when an image forms on the retina?

Each light-sensitive receptor cell generates a signal in its attached optic nerve fibre, for transmission to the brain where the combined signals are processed to build up the image itself in our minds.


What is the primary adaptive mechanism of humans?

that is complicated, our brains are. but our brains only began to develop towards their modern state once we began to use tools. a feat made possible through the adaptation of a combination of fingers and a thumb. had we not developed hands, our brains would not have began to develop. there were cons to the development of our scientific minds however, for instance, our photographic memories were lost to make room for the part of our brain that controls speech (made possible through the development of vocal chords) modern day chimpanzees still have their photographic memory, and can beat humans in memory exercices involving pictures and numbers. but while we do it for the fun, they only do it for the banana rewards.


Do photons travel forwards or backwards through time?

Photons do not travel through time. This is due to the fact that the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. In other words, if an object is standing still, it is traveling at the speed of light through time, and since a photon travels at the speed of light through space, it is not traveling through time. -- Asker here, I hope no one minds me editing in to expand on the question/answer given. Surely the answer must be more complex. If a photon does not travel through time, then that could potentially violate/invalidate causality.


What animals are most commonly known to be venomous?

Some common venomous animals include snakes, scorpions, spiders, and jellyfish. These animals have evolved venom as a defense mechanism or to incapacitate prey. It's important to be cautious around them to avoid potential harm.
