Skin, the largest organ in the human body covers the whole body. It has many function such as protecting as barrier against radiations, pathogens etc. Skin mainly consists of 3 layers, epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. Epidermis is the outer layer of the skin which is comparatively thin and tough. Epidermis does not have blood vessels and comprised of epithelial cells. Most of the cells in the epidermis are keratinocytes. Epidermis is originated from the deepest layer of the epidermis called basal

Your Inner Fish Summary Your Inner Fish is a book that explains evolutionary concepts from multiple different scientific viewpoints. It explains how fossils help us to understand where we started from, and how we evolved. It also explains how DNA can help us track where we came from and trace our ancestry. The book begins by talking about bones and fossils. It explains how much scientist know about the past, and what type of fossil they were looking for. They had a fossil from 185 million years

Inhibition of Hedgehog signaling by direct binding of cyclopamine to Smoothened Summary: The cyclopamine is a steroid which has both teratogenic and antitumor activities arising from its ability to specifically block cellular responses to Hedgehog signaling. Here it is used by photo affinity and fluorescent derivatives to inhibit the effect in binding of cyclopamine to the heptahelical bundle of Smoothened. These observations reveal the mechanism of cyclopamine's teratogenic

the existence of other pathways to the mutually exclusive pathways for myeloid and lymphoid lineages (Weisman 2010). There are certain signaling pathways shown to be involved in hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal which are Hox genes and Notch, Sonic Hedgehog, and Wnt signaling pathways. These pathways are associated with oncogenesis and over-expression of these genes in hematopoietic cells can lead to leukemia and cancerous cells (Rawat 2010). Expression of the Hox genes, such as HoxB4 and HoxA9 are

life traits can be passed down. In a different example, the Sonic franchise can be analyzed from the developer’s point of view. The first Sonic the Hedgehog game was created in 1991. It was well-received because of its groundbreaking colors, as well as the high-speed nature of the game. The Sega company realized that Sonic appealed to a wide audience, so naturally, future games are going to feature similar characteristics of the original Sonic game. This concept is comparable to Darwin’s idea that a

-------INTRO------- Sonic and The Black Knight. (I swear it’s not racist.) I remember renting this game when I was younger several years ago, but I don’t have too many fond memories of it. Maybe I was a stupid kid who just didn’t understand how the game worked, or maybe I just knew crap when I saw it. Either way, let’s get right into it. -------GAMEPLAY; CONTROLS------- Right off the bat you’ll notice that unlike Sonic and the Secret Rings you don’t control Sonic by tilting the

anthropomorphism, ESPECIALLY if that movie is anything related to Disney. Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics or behavior to a god, animal, or object. All your childhood favorites, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and even Sonic the Hedgehog, are all anthropomorphic! Our culture has slowly adapted to be able to accept everything that comes out way and anthropomorphism is something we have come across at least once in our life but not something we generally pay attention to.

a shallow stream but obtained arm and leg bones similar to an animal as well. This allowed the fish to push-ups. By explaining experiments by various genetic researchers, there was a gene discovered called Sonic hedgehog. This gene is responsible for the shaping of hands, fins, or paws. Sonic hedgehog’s normal function can be disrupted by the recombination of its digits. This is the gene that explains that there is no emergence of a new DNA, but, rather, the gene was recombined in a new way. Most

enormous flying gas truck zoomed past me from my right to my left. I thought it hit my black Mercedes. It was so scary I felt like my heart just skipped a beat. And when I saw that, I thought “Oh. Looks like someone is trying out to be faster than me. Sonic, if you’re around, I’m sorry for what I said but what I would you to do is kick that truck’s barrel and send it back to last place.” If he was around, he would do it, no sweat. He would go for 1st place. Anyways, the cop, not very joyful and walking

Brendan Yap AP Biology Your Inner Fish Chapter 1 The first chapter of the book discusses the way we can use fossil records to study the biological world. Fossils are one of the major lines of evidence we use to understand ourselves. Surprisingly, we are able to discover them with a high amount of precision and predictability. In particular, field paleontologists have it easier than it has ever been before due to the current information age. The physical hunt for important fossils, however, is much
