No one else noticed, did they?\nI hope you haven't turned in your extra credit answer about football yet.  The one you chose is wrong!!\n\nYou have to throw the ball in front of the receiver.  If the receiver is 25 yards away from the quarterback [it makes the math easier] and the quarterback throws a pass 50mph [a great arm], it will take 1 second to travel 25 yards.  The receiver will travel 4.5 yards to the left in that second.  To meet at the same place, the quarterback must throw to where the receiver will be in one second, 4.5 yards to the left.\n\nIf you're confused, draw a chart.  Show where the quarterback, receiver, and ball are right now, when the ball is thrown.  Then show where the receiever will be in one second.  That's where the ball has to be in one second.

I knew a guy about 15 years ago who had two thumbs on one of his hands. A small "extra" thumb grew out of his "normal" thumb on that hand. The extra thumb looked pretty standard except that it was considerably smaller than the normal one.\n\nHe seemed to be quite self-conscious about it. He cracked a joke about it when he saw me looking at his hand. Honestly, I don't think I had even noticed his extra thumb; I just happened to be looking down where his hand was and not really registering what I was seeing. I think he was just expecting people to make remarks about it and had a joke ready when he thought someone noticed. \n\nHe also had a rather severe stutter. I'm not sure if the stutter was some psychological result of his extra thumb or completely unrelated. But he really seemed to appreciate my patience in waiting for him to say the things he was struggling to say.

your testicles are supposed to hang at different levels so that they do not rub together when you walk. i dont know why one would be bigger than the other, except to say that many men probably are the sme way. >shrug<

Functionally we have four fingers and a thumb. The thumb can do something the fingers can't, namely oppose (cross the palm). If someone loses (or is born without) a thumb, this is much more functionally significant than losing a finger, and in fact there is special surgery done to give such kids a functioning 'thumb' (moving the index finger).\n\nStructurally - well, the bones are basically the same, although the thumb attaches differently (to the wrist bones instead of to the metacarpals). The muscles are different (again, allowing for opposition.)\n\nI vote for four fingers and a thumb, i.e. five digits. :)

I would guess bigger than the one your looking at. How old are you ? (8)

The rule of thumb is likely derived from the fact that people used the thumb as a measuring device. The length from the tip to the first knuckle is roughly an inch and perhaps the length of the inch is derived from this fact.

Consider that the skin covers the hand and the whole body. Which do YOU think is bigger, your body or your hand?\n\nI hope you realize the correct answer is SKIN.

One easy way to remember, LL, left is lower. It is the way we are made so whenever we cross our legs they do not get scrunched. Also it is common that one is slightly larger than the other, the key is the word slightly. Today it is getting easier and more comfortable for us guys to simply ask these kinds of questions of a doctor. You are on the right track simply because you are aware and using appropriate terminology. Hang in there! (smile)\n\nThe average size of the tool is about 5 inches.  Every part of our body is proportionate to others.

It is actually common that one arm is a different size than the other.  Body builders have this problem often and is one of the reasons they are graded on symmetry.  Any cardivascular excersize especially dancing works the largest muscles in the body which are the legs.  This releases hormones that promote muscle growth.  So you are probably predisposed to this genetically.  Especially if you are right handed.

an extension of the bottom one,\n\nis the ratio of thumb to index finger the same for everyone.

I was unaware that one was bigger than the other, but thanks to your years of research I now know that one is bigger than the other.   You stud you!

One one hand, yes. But on the other hand it's even smaller.

A pointing device is my finger.  I have nine of them that I can use, also two thumbs, but I rarely use my thumbs as a pointing device.

one hangs down lower than the other so they dont bump into eachother. more than two could be painful when walking.\n\nand if you lose one, you still have one good one.

It's not always so... It depends on a number of things: which part of the body you are talking about, the natural assymetry of the body etc.\n\nFor instance if you use one hand more than the other (like a tennis player might), the muscles would tend to increase in size as a result of the increased activity...\n\nIn addition, the human body is not perfectly symmetrical in anybody.
