Totipotent cells formed during sexual and asexual reproduction include spores and zygotes. Zygotes are the products of the fusion of two gametes. In some organisms‚ cells can dedifferentiate and regain totipotency. For example‚ a plant cutting or callus can be used to grow an entire plant. Human development begins when a sperm fertilizes an egg and creates a single totipotent cell called zygote. In the first hours after fertilization‚ this cell divides into identical totipotent cells. Approximately four days

Nuclear power plants provide about 6% of the world’s energy and 13–14% of the world’s electricity‚ with the U.S.‚ France‚ and Japan together accounting for about 50% of nuclear generated electricity. In 2007‚ the IAEA reported there were 439 nuclear

Fukushima Power Plant Nuclear power plants now account for 14% of the world’s electricity supply [1]. These power plants differ only by the fuel used from oil coal or gas power plants. The concept is otherwise the same. Large nuclei become unstable when struck with a neutron‚ his causes it to split apart and also produce neutrons which are fire out. This then causes a chain reaction and other nuclei are split up. This splitting of nuclei is called nuclear fission and it provides heat which heats

Plant tissue culture is widely used to produce clones of a plant in a method known as micropropagation. Different techniques in plant tissue culture may offer certain advantages over traditional methods of propagation‚ including: • The production of exact copies of plants that produce particularly

"Women have long been associated with nature." In the following essay Judith Plant sets out the main principles (in regards to ecofeminism): the closeness of women to nature; the belief that the domination of women and the destruction of nature have the same root cause; patriarchy; and the need to re-establish for nature the organic metaphor over the machine metaphor. Judith Plant believes that women have long been associated with nature and that historically‚ women have had no real power in
