Q: How much sleep needed
A: Most adults need 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night for optimal health. Teenagers require 8-10 hours, while younger children need 9-12 hours. Consistent sleep deprivation can lead to serious health issues like heart disease and cognitive decline.

Q: When will time end?
A: Current scientific understanding suggests time may end with the heat death of the universe in about 10^100 years. However, this remains theoretical and unproven. As of June 11, 2025, time continues normally.

Q: How many muscles does it take to smile?
A: A genuine smile (Duchenne smile) uses about 12-17 facial muscles including zygomaticus major, orbicularis oculi, and risorius. Forced smiles may use fewer muscles. The exact count varies slightly due to anatomical differences.
