  2. Carbon tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_tissue

    Carbon tissue is a gelatin-based emulsion used as a photoresist in the chemical etching (photoengraving) of gravure cylinders [1] for printing. This was introduced by British physicist and chemist Joseph Swan [2] [3] in 1864. [4] It has been used in photographic reproduction since the early days of photography. [5]

  3. Carbon print - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_print

    Carbon tissue was a stock item in Europe and the US well into the 20th century, [1] but by the 1950s carbon printing was very rare and supplies for it became an exotic specialty item. Some companies produced small quantities of carbon tissue and transfer papers for monochrome and three-color work until around 1990. [1] [3]

  4. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    In terms of tissue type, the body may be analyzed into water, fat, connective tissue, muscle, bone, etc. In terms of cell type, the body contains hundreds of different types of cells, but notably, the largest number of cells contained in a human body (though not the largest mass of cells) are not human cells, but bacteria residing in the normal ...

  5. Biological pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_pump

    Once this carbon is fixed into soft or hard tissue, the organisms either stay in the euphotic zone to be recycled as part of the regenerative nutrient cycle or once they die, continue to the second phase of the biological pump and begin to sink to the ocean floor.

  6. C4 carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_carbon_fixation

    C: Vascular tissue D: Bundle sheath cell E: Stoma F: Vascular tissue 1. CO 2 is fixed to produce a four-carbon molecule (malate or aspartate). 2. The molecule exits the cell and enters the bundle sheath cells. 3. It is then broken down into CO 2 and pyruvate. CO 2 enters the Calvin cycle to produce carbohydrates. 4.

  7. Respiration (physiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiration_(physiology)

    In physiology, respiration is the transport of oxygen from the outside environment to the cells within tissues, and the removal of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction to the environment by a respiratory system. [1]

  8. Alveolar macrophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar_macrophage

    Micrograph of carbon-laden macrophages in the lung, H&E stain Micrograph of an alveolar macrophage in the lung tissue showing the nucleus and other organelles including the Golgi body and mitochondria. Alveolar macrophages are phagocytes that play a critical role in homeostasis, host defense, and tissue remodeling. [7]

  9. Carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_cycle

    Ocean mixed layer carbon, c m, is the only explicitly modelled ocean stock of carbon; though to estimate carbon cycle feedbacks the total ocean carbon is also calculated. [ 107 ] Current trends in climate change lead to higher ocean temperatures and acidity , thus modifying marine ecosystems. [ 108 ]
