The structure of HIV is a testament to its evolutionary success as a pathogen. Its unique structure allows it to effectively invade host cells and replicate, leading to the progression of AIDS in humans. Understanding the structure of HIV is crucial for the development of effective treatments and...
The human immune system is composed of a distributed network of cells circulating throughout the body, which must dynamically form physical associations and communicate using interactions between their cell-surface proteomes1. Despite their therapeutic potential2, our map of these surface interactions rem...
Through their ATP synthesis function, mitochondria in muscles and other cells produce the body heat to keep warm-blooded animals at a steady temperature. It is this concentrated energy production capability of mitochondria that makes the high-energy activities and the production of heat in higher ani...

Skin thickness will vary throughout the body depending on the overall function and amount of external stress imposed on the body region. For example, skin on the hands and feet is thicker than in other areas of the body. This is due to the presence of the stratum lucidum which helps reduc...
One can even see homologous traits when examining the forearm bones of today's tetrapods. The radius, ulna, wrist, and hand bones are strikingly similar in the forearms of dolphins, frogs, dogs, birds, mice, humans, and other animals. This sketch series displays how the forearm bones of ...
Draw a diagram of the human eye as seen in a vertical section and label the parts which suits the following descriptions relating to the-i) Photosensitive layer of the eyeii) Structure which is responsible for holding the eye lens in its positioniii)...
of porn probably diminishes their impact, as it certainly does with the orgiastic and scatological films of the Vienna Actionists. The body modifications ofORLANor Stelarc still produce a frisson, despite countless plastic surgery shows. And the antics of provocateur Joseph Beuys, such as his ...
This process creates the important energy source glucose from non-carbohydrate sources in the cell. The SER in liver cells also helps those liver cells remove toxins. To do this, the SER digests portions of the dangerous compound to make it water soluble so that the body can excrete the ...
The Parietal Lobereceives and processes sensory information from the body including calculating location and speed of objects. The Occipital Lobeprocesses visual data and routes it to other parts of the brain for identification and storage. HIPPOCAMPUS:located deep within the brain, it processes new ...
