If only one kidney is present, that kidney can adjust to filter as much as two kidneys would normally. In such a situation, the nephrons compensate individually by increasing in size--a process known as hypertrophy--to handle the extra load. This happens with no adverse effects, even over years.
If a sword had memory, it might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it. Sammy Sosa hit the longest home run in home run derby. It was 528 feet, followed by 524 and 520 feet, also by Sosa.
One of his biggest and farthest home runs came in an early season trip to Jacobâs Field on April 30th of 1997. McGwire drilled a pitch over the 19 foot fence and 23 rows of seating in left center field for one of the longest home runs in history. Surprisingly though, it would take exactly a month for another player that year to surpass his homer for longest homer.
