What is Molecular Biology?
Molecular biology is the science of study of biology at the
molecular level.
William Astbury in Nature described molecular biology as:
"... not so much a technique as an approach, an approach
from the viewpoint of the so-called basic sciences with the
leading idea...........
Growing Mushrooms at Home Using Straw and/or Manure
There are some species of mushrooms that will benefit from
using straw or manure as a bulk substrate to maximize
fruiting potential. If you would like to grow Portabellas,
all of the Oyster mushrooms, Shaggy Manes, the Paddy Straw
mushroom, or the King Stropharia...........
Tiwanaku Alien and Evolution
It was mentioned on a biology blog that archaeological
engravings from the Tiwanaku civilization in Bolivia are
unlikely to be depicting an ancient astronaut for the reason
that, even with an aquatic tail, the creature still looks
too much like a human. The underlying...........
Understanding Bacteria and Enzymes
The adaptable nature of bacteria makes it possible to
exploit particular strains for their beneficial qualities.
The natural biodegradation of organic waste can be greatly
enhanced by the introduction of naturally occurring, non
genetically engineered, non pathogenic bacteria.
Biodegrading "specialists" are scientifically selected for
their exceptional...........
Scientist's Study Of Brain Genes Sparks a Controversy
Last September in Chicago, Bruce Lahn a professor of human
genetics from the University of Chicago, attended a packed
lecture hall and produced reports of a new DNA analysis: He
had found signs of recent evolution in the brains of some
people, but not...........
Understanding Telemetry
Will telemetry work for your industry? This is an amazing
way of measuring. You will find that it is used commonly as
a means of measuring things at a distance. Normally, it is
used by scientists and engineers who need to measure things
that...........
Galactic Mystery Matter On the Dark Side
Heralding a new age in the cosmos, Norwegian Kristian
Birkeland predicted that the universe likely consisted of an
exotic component that would later be called dark matter. His
comments about this subject matter appeared in a description
of the Norwegian Aurora Polaris Expedition (1902-1903).
Birkeland's...........
Hubble Telescope
One of the most important telescopes in the history of
astronomy, the Hubble telescope has allowed observers to
peer farther into space than any previous telescope. By
moving outside and above the atmosphere of the earth, the
Hubble telescope has been able to observe...........
Stars
A star is a massive body of plasma in outer space that is
currently producing or has produced energy through nuclear
fusion. The most familiar and closest star to the Earth is
the Sun. Unlike a planet, from which most light is
reflected, a...........
Telescopes
The word "telescope" (from the Greek tele = 'far' and
skopein = 'to look or see'; teleskopos = 'far-seeing')
usually refers to optical telescopes, but there are
telescopes for most of the spectrum of electromagnetic
radiation and for other signal types.
An optical telescope is...........
Galaxies
A galaxy is a gravitationally bound system of stars,
interstellar gas and dust, plasma, and (possibly) unseen
dark matter. Typical galaxies contain 10 million to one
trillion (107 to 1012) stars, all orbiting a common center
of gravity. In addition to single stars and...........
Star Formation
Star formation is the process by which hydrogen & helium in
molecular clouds change into the ball of plasma we call a
star.
According to current theories of star formation, cores of
molecular clouds (regions of especially high density) become
gravitationally unstable, fragment and begin...........
