Each cell has several organelles that form its internal structure. Some of them are nucleus, cytoskeleton, mitochondria, lysosomes, and the like. Each of these organelles performs particular functions to keep the cell functional and healthy. […]
Cells are the basic units of life that control chemical reactions. These can be of different types, such as eukaryotes, prokaryotes, nerve cells, muscle cells, and blood cells. […]
Every plant and animal is made up of cell–this idea that seems so basic now, was once a new discovery that had a significant impact on the field of cellular biology. […]
As seen in a digital cadaver, the facial muscles insert into the skin and are supported by the cranial nerve seven. A study of the neck region shows which muscles help in flexing and swallowing. […]
The human body finds its balance and support through its spine and vertebral column. With the help of digital records of cadavers and patients, it gets easier to study these body parts in details. […]
Science and technology have made it possible to study anatomy virtually. With Anatomage software, skull bones can be easily dissected, viewed, and observed. […]
The Sun’s temperature is not a constant and differs at the center and the surface. The corona is hotter than the surface. These temperatures and the light coming through are at diverse wavelengths and emit blackbody radiation. […]
Diffraction gratings have enabled astronomers to study light spectrum with greater precision. Previously, a prism was used in its place. Though effective, a prism worked slightly differently whenever used. Therefore, no consistent, reproducible results could be achieved. […]
The spine is a series of stacked bones, linked by the many joints and ligaments. The true back muscles move aspects of the spine and skull. They also help stabilize the spine. […]
The true back muscles are divided into four major subdivisions: the splenius capitis and splenius cervicis muscles, the erector spinae muscles, the transversospinalis and the segmental complex. […]
