A solar cell (also called photovoltaic cell or photoelectric cell) is a solid state electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Assemblies of cells used to make solar modules which are used to capture energy from sunlight‚ are known as solar panels. The energy generated from these solar modules‚ referred to as solar power‚ is an example of solar energy. Photovoltaics is the field of technology and research related to the practical

allow cell phones to be sold without pre-market testing. The rationale‚ known as the “low power exclusion‚” distinguished cell phones from dangerous microwave ovens based on the amount of power used to push the microwaves. At that time‚ the only health effect seen from microwaves involved high power strong enough to heat human tissue. The pressure worked‚ and cell phones were exempted from any type of regulatory oversight‚ an exemption that continues today. An eager public grabbed up the cell phones

Site Plan | I. Neurons/nerve cells A neuron is a cell specialized to conduct electrochemical impulses called nerve impulses or action potentials. Neuron is the main cellular component of the nervous system‚ a specialized type of cell that integrates electrochemical activity of the other neurons that are connected to it and that propagates that integrated activity to other neurons. They are the basic information processing structures in the CNS.
