Why is the sky blue? Why is the dog licking it's groin? Why did my fish die? Where did it go after it died? Who is that? What's this? Etc...
So we are just geared to ask questions and want to know who, what, when, why, where and how.
Things like what you mentioned have a clear scientific explanation for them however. This supposed meaning of life though, is just like religion, mere human interpretation without solid evidence to support it. Therefore there is no "meaning of life".
