The study of cells has been limited by their small size‚ and so they were not seen and described until 1665‚ when Robert Hooke first looked at dead cells from an oak tree. His contemporary‚ Anton van Leeuwenhoek‚ crafted lenses and with the improvements in optical aids‚ a new world was opened. Magnification and resolving power limit

trichomoniasis would make it easier for women to be infected with HIV. DIAGNOSIS: The diagnosis of trichomoniasis is based‚ for women‚ of a sample of vaginal secretions under a microscope‚ In both sexes‚ trichomoniasis can be diagnosed with the collection of the first urine stream‚ which is centrifuged and analysed by light microscopy; or the samples are subjected to microbiological culture‚ but it requires more time for diagnosis. TREATMENT: The treatment is based on the administration of metronidazole

At the time the Nanogenerator could harvest power from just one nanowire at a time by dragging the tip of an atomic force microscope over it. Made of platinum coated silicon‚ the tip served as a schottky barrier‚ helping accumulate and

exists within all living organisms as its basic structure. The study of cells is made possible through the use of cytology’ the preparation of materials for examination through microscopes as an average animal cell exists on a scale of 10 microns roughly one hundredths of a millimetres. Originally light microscopy was used in this field but with the advancement of knowledge scientists were restricted to 200nm magnification‚ or 2 tenths of a micron.

Areas of Knowledge: Invented‚ Discovered‚ or Both? One cannot say with certainty that specific areas of knowledge are invented nor can one say with certainty that areas of knowledge are discovered. Two areas of knowledge that deal with this topic are mathematics and natural science. In my opinion‚ I believe that mathematics is an invented area of knowledge with some discovery whereas science is a discovered area of knowledge with some invention. Certain topics and categories of mathematics might
