"Zoroastrians traditionally practice sky burials, wherein the deceased’s body is left exposed outdoors — customarily atop a raised, tower-like structure (a dakhma) — so that they can decompose in the open air and allow carrion birds to feed on the body."

#24 The heart is in the center of your chest. It beats in the left direction when it pumps blood.

Vic,
It doesn't sit straight up and down, but rather the main mass of the atriums is centered between the lungs, while the ventricles are angled slightly to the left of the sternum. Dextrocardia is when the heart is angled to the right.

#7 is from Braindead (1992)- a New Zealand zombie-comedy-splatter film directed by Peter Jackson. Definitely a must see.

#18 False. When you're growing, your body is in overproduction of cells, both new ones for growth and those to replace dead ones. Once you stop growing, your body only makes cells to replace the dead ones, which it slowly becomes less and less capable of.
This degrading ability to replace dead cells is why the elderly look so... well, the way they do, and why they become more susceptible to disease. However, this can also lead simply to organ failure, which is technically death due to old age.
