Plant cells have several structures not found in other eukaryotes. In particular, organelles called chloroplasts allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules; cell walls ...

Scientists in Japan have found a way to create solar-powered tissues, which may lead to breakthroughs in growing organs and ...

Cells make up all life on Earth ... In the model, this is the sandwich bag of water. Chloroplasts close chloroplastStructures found in plant cells which have a green pigment called chlorophyll ...

the researchers have also been able to emulate natural cell-cell communication using these protocells—based on the model of ...

Age of oldest reactor on site based on date operating license issued.

“We thought that the chloroplasts would be digested by the animal cells within hours after being introduced. However, what we ...

Each TFT sensor is the same size as a standard glass slide and can capture images of up to six culture chambers on a typical 8-well cell culture plate. As a result, six cultures can be observed ...

Scientists in Japan have created hybrid plant-animal cells, essentially making animal cells that can gain energy from ...

The ability to genetically engineer plants is largely thanks to a microscopic helper: a bacterium called Agrobacterium ...

Inside cells, there exists an extensive system of canals known as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which consists of membrane-encased tubes that are partially broken down as needed -- for instance in ...

A research team has succeeded in synthesizing simple, environmentally sensitive cells complete with artificial organelles. For the first time, the researchers have also been able to emulate natural ...
