Ultimately, clonal deletion plays a role in central tolerance. [3]

  8. Water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    Photosynthetic cells use the sun's energy to split off water's hydrogen from oxygen. [107] In the presence of sunlight, hydrogen is combined with CO 2 (absorbed from air or water) to form glucose and release oxygen. [108] All living cells use such fuels and oxidize the hydrogen and carbon to capture the sun's energy and reform water and CO

    Features of poisoning differ depending on whether the agent is an organic compound (one that contains carbon), or an inorganic one. [29] Organic lead poisoning is now very rare, because countries across the world have phased out the use of organic lead compounds as gasoline additives , but such compounds are still used in industrial settings ...
