Every cell that multiplies and divides as the embryo develops knows what its task is and heads towards the relevant location in the body. Bone cells locate other bone cells and adhere to them, while eye cells bind to eye cells and other cells to others of their kind. Let us now examine these statements with care. Every...
Infections by Streptococci are separated into several categories, depending on the composition of their cell walls. Groups A and B are the most common and devastating human pathogens. Group A Streptococcus bacteria causes disease ranging from streptococcal sore throat (strep throat) to necrotizing fasciitis (flesh-eati...
Pertussis, or whooping cough, is a contagious disease that can cause a prolonged and sometimes severe cough illness. It is caused by the bacterium, Bordetella pertussis, and is found in the nose and throat of an infected person. An infected person has cough episodes that may end in vomiting or cause a "whoop" sound whe...
Light exerts pressure on objects on which it shines. If collected on a large enough surface, the pressure of light can be used for space propulsion. Light sail craft have already been tested in Earth orbit and could also be used for interplanetary or interstellar travel. German astronomer Johannes Kepler noticed in the...
Collective farming was sweepingly introduced in the 12 core republics of the Soviet Union between 1928 and 1933. The Baltic states and the East European countries adopted collective farming after World War II, with the accession of communist regimes to power.

Indicator of progress Students count the number of objects in a small set. Success depends on several understandings, one of the most important of which is using one-to-one correspondence. While some students can recite the number sequence accurately (i.e. say 1, 2, 3, etc.) they have difficulty maintaining one-to-one ...
The completion of human and primate genome sequences (including some close, extinct relatives) reveals a great deal about the evolutionary innovations behind modern humans. All indications are a large collection of relatively subtle genetic changes added up to considerable differences in our brains and anatomy. So, it ...
The Moon stands due south at first light tomorrow. The portion that’s illuminated by sunlight includes an area of bright, jumbled terrain known as the southern highlands. That region was the first target for an experiment that began 50 years ago tonight — an experiment that helped set up a test of Albert Einstein’s the...
It’s a fact of life at this moment in history: humans produce CO2. A lot of it. And this is a problem. Since so many carbon emissions are produced in the cause of transportation, wouldn’t the logical solution to the greenhouse gas problem be to find a way to turn CO2 into fuel? That’s what researchers at the University...
Evolving not so Hot Since their discovery in the late 1970s, microorganisms known as archaea have fascinated scientists with their ability to thrive where no other life can – in conditions that are extremely hot, acidic or salty. \|The three domains of life.

The Earth was a very different place 3.5 billion years ago. In the absence of oxygen, many scientists believe Earth's earliest ecosystems survived on sulphur, but researchers have long been unable to find any proof of this hypothesis, in the form of fossilized microbial life. Now, an international team of geologists ha...

The gaseous compound, hydrogen sulfide (written as H2S), is a hazardous byproduct of many biological and industrial processes including the creation of biogas. It’s usually critical to separate the H2S gas from desirable or less hazardous gasses before they can be further refined. This is not, however, a simple matter....
Evidence for Spectral Lines Spectral lines were first seen in the sun's spectrum by William Wollaston in 1802. However, they were not systematically studied until 1814, when a German optician named Joseph von Fraunhofer observed and catalogued them. Fraunhofer carefully recorded the positions of the lines, but he didn'...
Ground-breaking research in nuclear physics at the University of Oslo may help astrophysicists understand how the heavier elements in our universe were made. The Big Bang only produced the lightest elements, such as hydrogen and helium. One of the fundamental questions of astrophysics is how all the other elements were...
Multiplication of polynomials relies on the distributive property. The reverse process, where a polynomial is written as a product of other polynomials, is called factoring. For example, one way to factor the number 18 is to write it as the product both 9 and 2 are factors of 18. Usually, only integers are used as fact...
Imagine that after a lifelong of hard work and saving, you find that your lifesavings will not buy more than one cup of coffee. For a majority of the middle class living in Germany during the early 1920’s this was precisely their experience. Of course, not all suffered during this period of hyperinflation. Those who ow...

The easiest way to spot a supermassive black hole (SMBH) is when it expels a huge jet of matter in one of the most energetic displays in the Universe. While astronomers have spotted these huge black holes at the centers of most galaxies, not all are active—meaning the jet isn't there, and the SMBH is hiding. However, e...

In general, the greatest threat to coral species is believed to be global climate change, which is likely to lead to an increase in severe storms, and to increased ocean acidification, which can reduce the ability of a coral to produce its hard skeleton. Rising sea temperatures can also lead to coral bleaching, in whic...
The permafrost in the bogs of subarctic Sweden is undergoing dramatic changes. The part of the soil that thaws in the summer, the so-called active layer, has become thicker since 1970, and the permafrost has disappeared altogether in some locations.
