What is Transduction? Steps of Transduction The process of transduction involves several steps, which can be summarized as follows: The overall outcome of transduction is the transfer of genetic material, including specific genes or genetic elements, between bacteria. This process facilitates the spread of genetic diversity, including the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes or virulence … Read more
What is Ebola ? Ebola is a virus that causes a severe and often fatal disease in humans and nonhuman primates (such as monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees). The virus is named after the Ebola River in the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire), where it was first identified in 1976. Ebola is a viral hemorrhagic … Read more
What is Neisseria Gonorrhoeae? Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a bacterium that can cause the sexually transmitted infection (STI) called gonorrhea. It is transmitted through sexual contact and can infect the genital tract, anus, and throat. Symptoms of gonorrhea can include painful urination, discharge from the genitals, and painful or swollen testicles in men, and abnormal vaginal … Read more
What is Archaea? Characteristics of Archaea Archaea are single-celled microorganisms that belong to the prokaryotic domain of life and share some characteristics with bacteria. However, they also possess unique features that distinguish them from bacteria. The main characteristics of Archaea include: These characteristics make Archaea unique and important microorganisms in the study of the evolution … Read more
Multicellular organisms experience a variety of cell development and death processes. Cellular death is crucial for the survival and development of all organisms. Our body is made up of several cell types situated in diverse body sections. There are two distinct methods by which a cell dies. Either the organism is exposed to an unfavourable … Read more
What is Cilia? What is Microvill? Difference between Cilia and Microvilli Cilia Microvilli Epithelial cells generate cilia, which are elongated, hair-like structures. Microvilli are epithelial cell-derived membrane protuberances. Cilia develop from basal granules. Basal granules are lacking in microvilli. Cylindrical cilia with tapered ends. Microvilli are cylindrical and terminate in blunt tips. Microvilli are shorter … Read more
Both microtubules and microfilaments are components of a cell’s cytoskeleton. Microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments compose the cytoskeleton. Tubulin proteins are polymerized to produce microtubules. They provide the cell with mechanical support and help to intracellular transport. Polymerization of actin protein monomers produces microfilaments. They contribute to the mobility of the cell on the surface. … Read more
Taenia Solium Characteristics of Taenia Solium Taenia solium, also known as the pork tapeworm, is a parasitic flatworm that infects humans and pigs. Here are some of its characteristics: Life history of Taenia solium Fasciola Hepatica Characteristics of Fasciola Hepatica Fasciola hepatica is a parasitic flatworm that infects the liver and bile ducts of various … Read more
Monohybrid cross Dihybrid cross Differences Between Monohybrid cross vs Dihybrid cross Characterisitcs Monohybrid Cross Dihybrid Cross Definition A genetic cross involving the study of one trait A genetic cross involving the study of two different traits Number of traits One trait Two traits Alleles involved Two alleles Four alleles Genotype combinations Three possible genotypes Nine … Read more
What is Cladogram tree? What is Phylogenetic tree? Cladogram vs Phylogenetic tree Cladogram Phylogenetic Tree Represents evolutionary relationships based on shared derived traits (synapomorphies) Represents evolutionary relationships among organisms or groups of organisms Focuses on identifying and grouping organisms based on shared characteristics Represents the pattern of descent and the evolutionary history of species or … Read more
