Scientists studied the fish's blood and measured its freezing point.The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of1.88℃and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to2.05℃. That small ...

This has led to extreme distortions of the so-called population pyramids that no longer look like such but begin to almost resemble cylinders. As a consequence of this "overaging" of the population, diseases that are associated with age have become much more common than before. It was thus ...
50 Once the virus gains access to vascular and neuronal tissue, it could begin a cycle of viral budding and further damage vascular and neuronal tissue as the virus comes into contact with ACE2 on neurons, glia, and vessels.51 The second mechanism is through infection of leukocytes that pass...
