The overbite is an example of recent human evolution! It’s occurred in the last 1,000 years. Most people’s teeth used to be perfectly aligned.

On average there are about 100 million stars in a galaxy. On average there are about 50 galaxies in a localised galaxy group. In total there exists somewhere between 1 and 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe. In terms of stars it has been estimated there are more of those than there are grains of sand on each of the world's beaches.

Despite the word being bandied around currently, there is actually no such thing as an "intersex" person.
