connecting links

According to this theory, the accumulation of cross linked proteins damages cells and tissues and slows down bodily processes resulting in ageing. In a process called non-enzymatic glycosylation, glucose molecules attach themselves to proteins resulting in a chain of chemical reactions. T..

The study of morphology also reveals some organisms form links between two different groups. There is further evidence that evolution has taken place and it also shows the direction taken by the process of evolution. These organisms that show the features of two different groups are call..

If the veins show a more or less parallel disposition, the condition is described as parallel venation. The parallely running veins are often connected at intervals by short links which are placed at right angles to the prominent parallel veins. Parallel venation is characterist..

Palaeontology - Study of fossils is called palaenotolgy. Fossils are defined as preserved remains of a living organism that existed on earth a long time ago. Fossils are formed by the preservation of the remains of the organisms that existed in the earlier days. The dead bodies of the organisms are..

. The magnitude of the current depended on the strength of the magnet and also on the magnitude of their relative velocity. Similar results were seen when the magnet is replaced by as coil connected to a battery. Even without physically moving the coils a current was shown in the galvanom..

. Coil S is connected to a sensitive galvanometer and is called the secondary coil. When the key K is closed, the flux linked with the coil in the primary circuit changes. This induces an EMF in the secondary coil indicated by the deflection in the galvanometer. When the key K i..

. In the centre of each circle is a haversian canal . The plates of bone or lamellae are arranged concentrically around the central canal. In between these plates are minute spaces called lacunae and these spaces contain bone cells and these spaces are connected to each other and to the c..

In Cutie Pie, the author describes the capture of an extra-terrestrial creature and his experiences on earth. The emphasis is on the basic human connection between the infant Winters and Cutie Pie, the E.T. creature. Indirectly, the author means that creatures living anywhere on any ..
