8. Was this a true “experiment”? If so‚ what was being tested? In the short story "Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment"‚ by Nathaniel Hawthorne‚ rather than observing the effect on people of the water from the Fountain of Youth‚ there is a true experiment behind. Though the narrator spends chunks of description on how the water changes people’s appearance and action‚ the inner human nature is what it really tests. As the doctor said before the experiment‚ "it would be well that‚ with the experience of

The research question which will be attempted to be answered is whether the biocontrol agent‚ Thaumastocoris peregrinus (bronze bug) attack other plants except for the eucalyptus species. Hypothesis: It is expected that T. peregrinus does attack other nearby plant species and does not only feed on eucalyptus plants. Aim: To determine whether T. peregrinus feeds on other species of plants other than the eucalyptus species. Introduction: The T. peregrinus‚ also known as the bronze bug is known as

cells. Nonproliferative cells in multicellular eukaryotes generally enter the quiescent G0 state from G1 and may remain quiescent for long periods of time‚ possibly indefinitely . This is very common for cells that are fully differentiated. Cellular senescence occurs in response to DNA damage or degradation that would make a cell ’s progeny nonviable; it is often a biochemical reaction; division of such a cell could‚ for example‚ become cancerous. Some cells enter the G0 phase semi-permanentally e.g.

THE LIFE span of human beings is marked by successive change of events beginning from gestation and ending in death through successive periods of infancy‚ childhood‚ adolescence‚ adulthood and senescence. The process of growth starts with the uterine life and ends around twenty years post natal life when all linear increments of the body stop and the internal organs fully develop. Almost a decade later‚ the body starts losing all vital capacities gradually and it is believed to be the onset of ageing

BEETROOT PIGMENTS - and membranes – These pigments are betalain pigments (not‚ as often thought‚ anthocyanins)‚ which they replace in some organisms. They are named after the Beet family of plants (Beta) but are also found in fungi (Fly Agaric - the red‚ spotted one!). In petals they presumably attract pollinating insects and may be present in seeds/fruits to encourage birds to eat them and so disperse the seeds. Man has selected for colour in beetroot‚ both because

Epigenetics is a new phenomenon that has stunned the world of life sciences‚ proving to have enormous potential in many aspects of biological and medical research. Many academics‚ scientists and doctors‚ have concluded that epigenetics could be the answer: The answer to curing a plethora of modern neurodegenerative diseases. Epigenetic changes are reversible and heritable modifications in phenotype without alteration of the primary nucleotide sequence. Evidences have suggested that epigenetic mechanisms

Nicotine is an alkaloid present in plants of the Family Solanaceae. Most commonly found in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)‚ nicotine serves as a plant secondary chemical to protect plants against insects and other herbivores. Nicotine is an addictive stimulant in mammals‚ and is commonly used in cigarettes‚ cigars‚ pipes‚ and chewing tobacco. Nicotine can be administered to the body in many ways: orally through smoking tobacco‚ inhaling vaporized nicotine‚ or ingesting nicotine substances such as gum
