Remember the "Matrix" Keanu Reeves character Neo dodge bullets, and these fly in slow motion?
Similarly, the image they see and flies. And in general - the smaller the animal the faster the metabolism, the slower time passes for them.
That was the conclusion reached unexpectedly Trinity College scientists in Dublin, Ireland.
Researchers have attempted to assess the animal's ability to feel, when they see on ultra-fast flashing lights blackout. The study is published in the journal "Animal Behavior".
After experimenting with a variety of animals (study examined more than 30 species, among them - rodents, eels, lizards, chickens, pigeons, dogs, cats, and turtles), it appears that this phenomenon is related to the animal's size.
It turns out that the smaller animals the world sees a significant in slow-motion.
And the flies, this vision of time realize even 4 times faster than the blink of light perceive man.
In other words, a fly sees the real picture of the world, which is slowed down by 4 times. It operates a psychic the flies environmental perception machine.
It appears that this effect may be related to another phenomenon - with age, when it seems that time is running very quickly.
Experiments with humans showed that the perception of time depends on the age.
Children of time perception processes is definitely faster. Therefore their feel thad they days is longer.
