NEET 2026 aspirants should strategically prioritize Biology chapters, as it constitutes 50% of the exam. Human Physiology and Genetics are high-impact ...

A groundbreaking scientific discovery may soon transform the agricultural industry. With support from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), researchers uncovered the first nitrogen-fixing ...

A new study in Nature Plants reveals that DNA double-strand break repair (DSBR) pathways help prevent gene transfer from organelles to the nucleus in plants. Disruption of DSBR increases the risk of ...

Membrane-bound organelles were the textbook standard of how scientists thought cells were organized until they realized in the mid-2000s that some organelles don’t need to be wrapped in a membrane.

Animal and plant cells have three main differences. They both have a nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane, but only plant cells have a cell wall, vacuole and chloroplasts.We used jelly to create an ...

Plants’ ability to sense light and temperature, and their ability to adapt to climate change, hinges on free-forming structures in their cells whose function was, until now, a mystery. For the first ...

The development of functionally distinct membrane-bound compartments, called organelles, is a hallmark of eukaryotic cells. Each organelle performs novel functions and contains highly specialized ...

While plant cells have obvious differences to those of animals, all of us with complex – eukaryotic – cells have a Golgi apparatus ‘post office’ within each one.

Chloroplast . This double-membraned plant organelle in is similar in some ways to the mitochondria of animal cells. The outer membrane of the chloroplast is freely permeable to small molecules via ...
