A solar cell (also called photovoltaic cell or photoelectric cell) is a solid state electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Assemblies of cells used to make solar modules which are used to capture energy from sunlight‚ are known as solar panels. The energy generated from these solar modules‚ referred to as solar power‚ is an example of solar energy. Photovoltaics is the field of technology and research related to the practical

Stem cells -are biological cells found in all multi cellularorganisms‚ that can divide (throughmitosis) and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self-renew to produce more stem cells. In mammals‚ there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells‚ which are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts‚ and adult stem cells‚ which are found in various tissues. In adult organisms‚ stem cells and progenitor cells act as a repair system for the body‚ replenishing

AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE DETECTING SYSTEM Author: NETAJI.PANIGRAHI B.Tech e.mail:netajipanigrahi@gmail.com 1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION The Automatic Temperature Detecting System is an embedded system application which has the capability of detecting temperature of the environment. The behavior of the system is based on sensor. Based on sensing information the microcontroller will respond. This system works on 5V power supply. Here Microcontroller plays a major role which takes inputs from sensor

SCD also known as sickle cell disease affects the blood and cardiovascular system. There are six different types of SCD. The following discussion will include cause‚ symptoms‚ diagnosis‚ treatment and prevention. The proper education on this disease will give patients and the public a better knowledge of the common unfamiliarity with SCD. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚ arteries‚ capillaries‚ veins‚ and blood. The organs in the cardiovascular system are a vital part of the human

Gene expression is the ability of a gene to produce a biologically active protein. This process is regulated by the cells of an organism‚ it is very important to the survival of organisms at all levels. This is much more complex in eukaryotes than in prokaryotes. A major difference is the presence in eukaryotes of a nuclear membrane‚ which prevents the simultaneous transcription and translation that occurs in prokaryotes. Initiation of protein transcription is started by RNA polymerase. The activity

Premature Rupture of Membranes Article Review As the article states‚ premature rupture of membranes occurs when the amniotic membranes surrounding the growing fetus rupture causing a loss of fluid before 37 weeks of gestation and before the onset of natural labor. PPROM‚ preterm premature rupture of membranes is seen often in women who smoke and use recreational drugs. If PPROM occurs before 26 weeks of gestation it is considered extreme and more often than not leads to more serious complications
