  2. Cytosol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytosol

    The cytosol is the site of multiple cell processes. Examples of these processes include signal transduction from the cell membrane to sites within the cell, such as the cell nucleus, [57] or organelles. [58] This compartment is also the site of many of the processes of cytokinesis, after the breakdown of the nuclear membrane in mitosis. [59]

  3. Cytoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoplasm

    The submicroscopic ground cell substance, or cytoplasmic matrix, that remains after the exclusion of the cell organelles and particles is groundplasm. It is the hyaloplasm of light microscopy, a highly complex, polyphasic system in which all resolvable cytoplasmic elements are suspended, including the larger organelles such as the ribosomes ...

  4. Liquidus and solidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidus_and_solidus

    For pure elements or compounds, e.g. pure copper, pure water, etc. the liquidus and solidus are at the same temperature, and the term melting point may be used. There are also some mixtures which melt at a particular temperature, known as congruent melting. One example is eutectic mixture. In a eutectic system, there is particular mixing ratio ...

  5. Glucose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose

    Glucose is a sugar with the molecular formula C 6 H 12 O 6, which is often abbreviated as Glu.It is overall the most abundant monosaccharide, [4] a subcategory of carbohydrates.It is mainly made by plants and most algae during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight.

  6. Chemical impurity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_impurity

    Pure beryl will appear colorless but this rarely occurs and the presence of trace elements change its color. The green of emeralds are from impurities such as chromium, vanadium, or iron. A manganese impurity will give a pink gem called morganite and iron creates the blue gem aquamarine. [5] Three gems from the beryl family with different colors.

  7. Hershey–Chase experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hershey–Chase_experiment

    The lack of 32 P-labeled DNA remaining in the solution after the bacteriophages had been allowed to adsorb to the bacteria showed that the phage DNA was transferred into the bacterial cell. The presence of almost all the radioactive 35 S in the solution showed that the protein coat that protects the DNA before adsorption stayed outside the cell.

  8. Innate immune system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innate_immune_system

    When host cells die, either by apoptosis or by cell injury due to an infection, phagocytic cells are responsible for their removal from the affected site. [9] By helping to remove dead cells preceding growth and development of new healthy cells, phagocytosis is an important part of the healing process following tissue injury.

  9. Protoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protoplasm

    Protoplasm (/ ˈ p r oʊ t ə ˌ p l æ z əm /; [1] [2] pl. protoplasms) [3] is the part of a cell that is surrounded by a plasma membrane.It is a mixture of small molecules such as ions, monosaccharides, amino acids, and macromolecules such as proteins, polysaccharides, lipids, etc.
