Biology study reveals cells defying reproduction rules, showing how shape impacts division and tissue growth. The post ...

The five phases of mitosis and cell division tightly coordinate the movements of hundreds of proteins. How did early biologists unravel this complex dance of chromosomes? The most obvious ...

Sexual reproduction produces offspring that are ... the process which provides the energy needed to carry out cell division and growth Warmth Needed for respiration and cell division As the ...

The study of the cell cycle focuses on mechanisms that regulate the timing and frequency of DNA duplication and cell division. As a biological concept, the cell cycle is defined as the period ...

“We found that the shifts in cell morphology that shape tissues could…trigger asymmetric division and direct core identity decisions underpinning tissue building.” If the asymmetry leads to ...

Chromosomes carry genetic information in a molecule called DNA. A type of cell division called mitosis ensures that when a cell divides each new cell produced has the same genetic information.

Cell division is the process of a cell splitting into two genetically identical daughter cells. The actin protein seen in this video is essential for successful cell division. While actin has several ...

To make the move from asexual to sexual reproduction ... (Cytokinesis describes the division of the rest of the cell.) Almost all of the DNA duplication in your body is carried out through ...

Meiosis, a type of cell division specific to reproduction, avoids this by halving the number of chromosomes in a cell. The cell shown here will divide twice, resulting in four cells. Each of these ...

Researchers have uncovered a "selfish" X chromosome in the fruit fly Drosophila testacea that manages to distort inheritance ...

This video of a so-called HeLa cell dividing demonstrates how sensitive the cell division process is. While all is going well at the beginning of the video, as the clip nears its end you can see the ...
