Substances like nitric oxide (NO), prostacyclin (PGI2), and adenosine can cause extreme dilation of arterioles and capillaries by promoting relaxation of smooth muscle cells in the blood vessel walls. This dilation increases blood flow to tissues and helps regulate blood pressure and tissue perfusion.
In biology, "inhospitable" refers to an environment that is unsuitable for supporting life due to extreme conditions such as extreme temperatures, lack of resources, or toxic substances. Organisms may struggle or be unable to survive in such environments.
In a black hole, time dilation becomes more extreme the closer you get to the center, known as the singularity. At the singularity, time dilation becomes infinite, meaning that time effectively stops for an outside observer. This occurs due to the massive gravitational pull of the black hole, warping space-time to such an extent that time ceases to flow as we understand it.
Nothing particular happens. Some substances have a specific gravity which is above 1.301 except in extreme situations whereas others have sg which is always below.
No, not all substances are combustible. Combustibility is determined by a substance's chemical composition and properties. Some materials may be non-combustible or require extreme conditions to ignite and burn.
Extreme heat will not cause helium to explode, as helium is a noble gas and does not react chemically with other substances. When heated, helium expands but remains stable and does not undergo any explosive reactions. However, if helium is contained in a pressurized environment, excessive heat could increase the pressure to dangerous levels, potentially causing the container to rupture rather than the helium itself exploding.
We do experience a form of time dilation in everyday life, but the effects are extremely small. Time dilation occurs due to differences in gravitational potential and velocities. In our daily lives, these differences are relatively insignificant compared to extreme situations, such as near a black hole or moving at speeds close to the speed of light, where the effects of time dilation become much more pronounced.
Skin, or the integumentary system, acts as a protective covering that prevents the entry of harmful substances and organs, and prevents extreme water loss.
Yes, water can be compressed under extreme pressure, but it is difficult to compress compared to other substances.
Black holes are incredibly dense, with a mass packed into a very small volume. This extreme density causes a strong gravitational pull that warps space-time around it, leading to effects like time dilation and the bending of light.
Drugs and other substances can cause problems, as well as extreme fatigue and poor blood circulation.

Boiling tubes are used to heat substances to extreme temperatures. Boiling tubes are almost twice the size of regular test tubes. They are designed to allow substances to violently boil without boiling over or exploding out.
When a person drinks something cold, research has shown that a dilation of the carotid arteries occur inside your head, resulting in an *ice cream headache*. We don't yet know why this happens, but doctors think it is a reaction to the extreme cold hitting the back part of the mouth.

A pH level below 2 or above 12 is generally considered hazardous. These extreme pH levels can be corrosive and can pose significant health risks. It's important to handle substances with extreme pH levels carefully and use appropriate safety measures.
All substances have a liquid form, but may not be present in nature. Under extreme pressure and temperature circumstances, liquid oxygen can be created, in fact, it is used to fuel space rockets.
