SPECIAL TOPICS: Nature Seems to Love the Number 3

Along with disastrous 3-point shooting in NBA basketball…lol. Three points are awarded for field goals in football, and no NBA team has ever been down 3 games in the playoffs yet win a 7-game series. DNA can exist in 3 hybridized states within a cell. There are 3 bases on a baseball field away from home plate, and after a batter accumulates 3 strikes, they’re ” out “. In biology, 3 nitrogenous bases on m-RNA molecules code for protein synthesis within ribosomes. When the man pulls you over: ( 1 ) driver’s license, ( 2 ) registration, and ( 3 ) insurance, please…lol. Geographical location is oftentimes defined by ( 1 ) city, ( 2 ) state, and ( 3 ) zip code.

The four fundamental forces of nature are the: ( 1 ) gravitational force; ( 2 ) coulombic force; ( 3 ) magnetic force; ( 4 ) nuclear force ( a.k.a. the ” strong force ” ). Exactly 3 of these forces can be both attractive and repulsive ( nuclear, magnetic, and coulombic ), with the gravitational force being attractive only. A healthy pregnancy, on average, consists of 3 trimesters. In neuroscience, the ” Rule of Three ” is in reference to 3 being the most idealistic pattern that the human brain recognizes–when that number is increased to 4, confusion begins to set in. The number ” pi “, which is the ratio of the circumference and diameter of a circle, is approximately ( C / D ) = 3.14, which is approximately ” 3 “.
