Is a computer smarter than humans?

No, computers do not learn, so they aren't smarter. All information was input by humans somehow. Now, it can do things faster, but it is not smarter, no.

I disagree, there are many areas in which computers are "smarter" than a human being. A simple example - calculators are much better and faster at doing calculations than a human (part of the problem is that we used to define being able to do complex calculations quickly as being very smart, now we tend not to think if it that way. You see this everywhere - whenever a computer becomes smarter than we are at doing something, we tend not to think of this area being "smart" anymore.)

As to the comment about being able to "learn", there are certain areas computers can "learn" without being programmed by a human. As simple example: there are systems called neural networks that can learn to categorize things - show them a million pictures of what the letter "A" looks like, and they will learn to recognize an "A" when they see it.

While this is a simple example, systems like these can work much faster than people, and without ever getting tired, and eventually they become better in these areas (smarter) than a human. And this was only a simple example, and these learning systems, and other computer systems are being improved upon constantly, and are being used in more and more areas. Add to this the fact that computers are getting faster, smaller, and cheaper, (and smarter!) all the time, and you begin to see the potential for computers to replace more and more "human level" jobs. (I don't believe this is a bad thing - smarter computers mean more productivity, cheaper goods and services, making the world richer, while requiring less work by all of us. Eventually, picture only having to work a few hours per week, everything costing one tenth of what it costs now, having a robot (powered by a smart computer) that can do whatever you ask it to do, or ten robots for that matter (they're cheap!) -- this is our future 20-30 years from now - all because of "smarter" computers...)

What does a chimp's mother do to care for their young?

She breastfeeds the infant for a couple years, spends time helping to teach it to use tools to extract food, protects it from other chimps or predators as much as she can, lets it ride on her to make travel easy and grooms it to help prevent disease. She also lets it sleep in her nest to keep it safe and warm at night.

What does a sore cheek next to your left ear and sore neck just below the left ear mean i cant lay on that side of my face as its very tender but i can eat fine and none of my teeth are sore?

Sounds like an ear infection. Ask your doctor.

I had the same symptoms with the addition of extreme scalp sensitivity on the same side. I couldn't even stand to touch my head. My doctor diagnosed a nerve infection in the occipital nerves. She prescribed antibiotic and some pain med to treat the nerve pain. After a round of antibiotics is was finally gone and I could sleep soundly again.

Why do you think gc rich DNA is more difficult to denature than at rich DNA?

AG rich DNA is held by 3 hydrogen bonds whilst AT rich DNA is held by just 2 bonds therefore this making AG DNA more difficult bacause of its high number of bonds that hold it together.
