Connections between neurons can be mapped by acquiring and analysing electron microscopic brain images. In recent years, this approach has been applied to chunks of brains to reconstruct local connectivity maps that are highly informative1–6, but nevert

The centriole is the dense center of the centrosome. Cytoplasm The jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located. Golgi body (Golgi Apparatus/Golgi Complex) A flattened, layered, sac-like organelle that looks like a stack of pancakes and is located near the ...
plastids which play a major role in photosynthesis and storage of starch, large vacuoles responsible for regulating the cell turgor pressure. They also have a very unique cell division process whereby there is the formation of a phragmoplast (a complex made up of microtubules, microfilaments...
The Parts Of A Plant Cell: Cell Wall Plasma Membrane Cytoplasm and Cytoskeleton Nucleus Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Body Chloroplast Mitochondria Peroxisomes Ribosomes Vacuoles The Cell Wall To begin with, the outside of a plant cell is enveloped by a structure known as a cell wall. The cell wal...
A cell, in biology, is the basic membrane-bound unit that contains the fundamental molecules of life and of which all living things are composed. A single cell may be a complete organism in itself, such as a bacterium, or it may acquire a specialized fun
Chromatin- DNA-Protein Complex. Ribosomes- site of protein synthesis. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum- covered in ribisomes - lamellar. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum- tubuler. Golgi Body- synthesis and secretion of polysaccharides. Chloroplast- Site of Photosynthesis. ...
Mitosis is the process where a cell is divided into two cells with the same number of chromosomes. Explore more about mitosis, its definition, diagram, & stages
As connectomics advances, it will become commonplace to know far more about the structure of a nervous system than about its function. The starting point for many investigations will become neuronal wiring diagrams, which will be interpreted to make theo
While the ER is the manufacturing plant of the cell, theGolgi apparatus, sometimes called Golgi body, is the packing plant of the cell. The Golgi apparatus takes proteins newly produced in the ER and "packages" them so they can function properly in the cell. It also packages substances into...
