When a sperm and egg meet, and the sperm enters the egg, this is called fertilization. This typically occurs in the fallopian tube. The egg/sperm combination is now called a zygote. The zygote moves from the fallopian tubes into the uterus; it is...
In Science, the word weight is often colloquial for mass but the two are fundamentally different. The instrument we use to measure mass is called a balance and it actually measures the weight but gives the equivalent conversion. The standard unit for measuring the mass of an object is the...
Silicon’s atomic number is 14, it’s atomic symbol on the Periodic Table of Elements is Si, and it’s atomic weight (average mass of the atom) is 28.09. According to the Royal Society of Chemistry, silicon is the seventh most abundant element in the universe and the second most abundan...
he wants to be sure that he maintains as much of his muscle mass and strength as possible. The best thing is to assess your own age and needs, and to allocate your macros accordingly. Then, think about using an app such as MyFitnessPal to track your macros and see how you...

Briefly, we first weigh each expected peptide in a protein by its estimated likelihood of detection based on its length (we have shown this likelihood to be at present relatively uniform across the diverse organisms and mass spectrometers (55)). We then compute the actual peptide coverage of ...
Accurate global carbon dioxide (CO2) distribution with high spatial and temporal resolution is essential for understanding its dynamics and impacts on climate change. This study tackles the challenge of data gaps in satellite observations of greenhouse g
Tuck in your chin as if holding an egg between your chin and upper chest. Take a deep breath and slowly lower the barbell by bending at your elbows until it touches your upper chest below your chin. Exhale sharply as you explode back to the starting position. ...
Increasing consumption of pre-packaged foods is likely an important driver of diet-related diseases in China. From January 2013 it became mandatory to provide a standardised nutrient declaration on pre-packaged foods in China. We collected data on pre-packaged foods from large chain supermarkets in...
