Senium is the last stage of a person’s life and the final stage of natural aging. It is considered a degenerative phase in which physical and mental abilities decline – to the point where the aging person may die from it. What is the senium? Senium is the last stage of a person’s life and … Senium: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Archaea, or primordial bacteria, are cellular life forms in addition to the other groups of bacteria and eukaryotes. In the late 1970s, the archaea were described and classified as a distinct group by microbiologists Carl Woese and George Fox. What are archaea? Archaea are single-celled organisms that possess DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in the form of … Archaea: Infection, Transmission & Diseases
Brain lateralization refers to the structural and functional differences between the hemispheres of the cerebrum. Functional differences crystallize a left-hemispheric dominance in language processes. In childhood brain lesions, the hemispheres compensate for the damage entirely. What is brain lateralization? Brain lateralization refers to the structural and functional differences between the hemispheres of the cerebrum. The … Lateralization of the Brain: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
The phenotype is the outwardly visible appearance of an organism with its various characteristics. Both genetic makeup (genotype) and environment influence the expression of the phenotype. What is the phenotype? The phenotype is the outwardly visible appearance of an organism with its various characteristics. The visible expressions of an organism, but also the behavior and … Phenotype: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
The appearance of an organism is called its phenotype. In this context, the phenotype is shaped both genetically and by the environment. Natural phenotypic changes in an organism are usually caused by environmental factors. What is phenotypic change? Natural phenotypic changes to an organism are usually caused by environmental factors. Phenotypic changes can occur in … Phenotypic Changes: Function, Task & Diseases
Amelogenesis is the formation of tooth enamel, which is carried out in two phases by ameloblasts. A secreting phase is followed by a mineralizing phase that hardens the enamel. Enamel formation disorders make teeth more susceptible to decay and inflammation and are often treated with crowning. What is amelogenesis? Amelogenesis is the formation of tooth … Amelogenesis: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Nuclear division (mitosis) of cells of eukaryotic organisms with replication of DNA can be divided into four main phases. The second main phase is called metaphase, during which chromosomes contract in a spiral pattern and position themselves in the equatorial plane at approximately equal distances from both opposite poles. The spindle fibers, starting from both … Metaphase: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Callus hardening is the fourth phase of the five-phase secondary fracture healing process. Osteoblasts form a callus of connective tissue to bridge fracture gaps, which they mineralize with calcium to harden it. In fracture healing disorders, this process is impaired and the bone lacks stability. What is callus hardening? Callus hardening is the fourth phase … Callus Hardening: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Duchenne type muscular dystrophy is a malignant (malignant) muscle disease caused by a genetic defect on the X chromosome, so the disease can only occur in male offspring. Symptoms appear as early as infancy in the form of weaknesses in the pelvic and thigh muscles. It is always fatal in early adulthood due to degeneration … Duchenne Type Muscular Dystrophy: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment
A base pair consists of two nucleobases that face each other in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA), bind to each other, and form the double strand with the help of hydrogen brϋcken. This is the genomic information of an organism and includes the genes. Incorrect base pairing can lead to mutations. What is … Base Pairing: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Babbling is the preliminary stage of speech. After the first form of communication, crying, the baby learns to string vowels and consonants together. This results in babbling, which adults consider cute and is essential to forming words. What is babbling? Babbling is the preliminary stage of speech. After the first form of communication, crying, the … Babbling: Function, Tasks, Role & Diseases
Calcineurin (CaN) is a protein phosphatase that plays an important role in the activation of immune system T cells, but is also active in other calcium-mediated signaling pathways throughout the body. By dephosphorylating the NF-AT protein, this enzyme initiates a series of gene transcripts that are primarily responsible for the characteristic work of T lymphocytes. … Calcineurin: Function & Diseases
