An Endoceras orthocone descends upon an unsuspecting Pseudogygites trilobite. While they are often reconstructed swimming sideways, recent studies have shown orthocones actually swam upright in the water column, so I drew them more like a claw game, grabbing prey from the sea floor.

Give and Take

Communication between cells is fundamental to an organism's survival. They can do this by releasing small molecules which diffuse across to neighbouring cells, which can receive and respond to those messages. However, that might not be the only way. Here, researchers studied how various proteins and RNA molecules that can usually be found in a cell’s cytoplasm may be able to be passed between cells. By tracking a delivery in the form of a protein called Cas9 that caused a glow of bioluminescence on successful transfer, they found that cells in direct or close contact form physical tube connections between them allowing this cargo passage. This video shows the tubular connection form between the donor (green) and receiver (magenta) cells and parcels of Cas9 being transferred. This introduces a new concept of how cells communicate with one another, both when healthy but also potentially when it comes to cancer progression.

SHINO SENSEI I HAVE A QUESTION.

WHY DID I FAIL MY BIOLOGY TEST?! I BROUGHT YOU A DETAILED ESSAY OF HOW TO DECIPHER BUG SPEECH!!

"You failed because the test wasn't about insects' communications, it was about insect's respiratory and digestive systems. Besides, your information about communication was wrong."

i feel like epilogues are always tricky but at ease really hit all the buttons. the subtle hint to deans alcoholism, cas' suicide attempt. how a conversation can suddenly take a wrong turn, but you have people around you who love you and they will help you through it. how love can be so scary in the beginning but now its a comfortable touch you lean into. and while things could be so much better, you at least have the man you love beside you, holding your mother's wedding ring, while your family sleeps in the other room, all full and content with the life you all have created

Really really something about how in the prophetic vision the thing that represents how galehaut will die is the turbulent waves under the broken bridge. Like that is so everything.

[whats-in-a-sentence]

The Golgi body (in plants, also called a dictyosome) is a polarized stack of cisternae, with fatter cisternae occurring on the cis side, or forming face, which accepts tubules and vesicles from the ER (Figures 1.15 and 1.16).

[tenth-sentence]

The ER is composed of an extensive network of tubules that is continuous with the nuclear envelope (Figure 1.12).
