The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle and cell division. It discusses the phases of the cell cycle including interphase and mitosis. It describes chromosome structure and duplication. It explains the process of mitosis and cytokinesis. It also discusses regulation of the cell cycle through checkpoints at the G1/S and G2/M transitions to ensure DNA integrity before cell division.
This document discusses chromosomes and their structure. Some key points:
- Chromosomes are thread-like structures found in the nucleus that contain DNA. They can be seen during cell division.
- Chromosomes come in different shapes depending on the location of the centromere. They also have two arms labeled p and q.
- Humans have 46 chromosomes in their somatic cells. The number varies between species but is consistent within a species.
- Chromosomes contain DNA that is tightly packaged and organized through proteins like histones to fit inside the nucleus. Nucleosomes and chromatin compaction allow for the dense packing of DNA.
Cell cycle is the series of events that occur in a cell leading to its division and duplication. It includes interphase (G1, S, and G2 phases) and the mitotic (M) phase. During interphase, the cell grows and duplicates its DNA. The M phase consists of karyokinesis and cytokinesis, dividing the nucleus and cytoplasm, resulting in two identical daughter cells each with the full complement of chromosomes. Key events include DNA replication in S phase, alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate during mitosis, separation of sister chromatids in anaphase, and division of the cytoplasmic contents in cytokinesis.
The document summarizes the process of protein synthesis in three main steps: transcription, translation, and termination. During transcription, RNA polymerase makes an mRNA copy of a DNA sequence. Translation then uses the mRNA to assemble a polypeptide chain via tRNAs and ribosomes. Termination occurs when a stop codon signals the release of the completed protein chain. The central dogma of biology is demonstrated as DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is then translated to protein.
Cell division through mitosis occurs in three main stages and produces two identical daughter cells. Mitosis includes prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase where the genetic material is duplicated and separated. Cytokinesis then partitions the cytoplasm between the two daughter cells through cleavage in animal cells and cell plate formation in plant cells. Mitosis results in genetic identicalness and is important for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
The document discusses cell division and the cell cycle. It begins by outlining the key phases of the cell cycle - interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis. Interphase is further broken down into the G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its contents. Mitosis is the phase where the cell nucleus divides into two identical nuclei. Cytokinesis then divides the cytoplasm into two daughter cells. The document also discusses DNA structure and replication, noting the double helix structure and enzymes involved in duplicating DNA. Abnormal cell division can lead to diseases like cancer if the cell cycle is not properly controlled.
This presentation explains the topic of CELL CYCLE and CELL DIVISION.
It includes cell mitosis of both Plant cell and Animal cell with labelled diagrams.
This document presents a seminar on the cell cycle given by Mr. Prasannjeet Saha at Rungta College of Science & Technology. It defines the cell cycle as the process from the end of one cell division to the start of the next, and describes its key phases - interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis. Interphase consists of G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and its DNA is replicated. Mitosis is then followed by cytokinesis, in which the cell physically divides into two daughter cells. The seminar discusses each phase in detail and explains how checkpoints ensure complete genomes are transmitted between generations of cells.
Golgi apparatus ppt (introduction structure and Function)Dryogeshcsv
The Golgi apparatus is a membrane-bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells that packages and modifies proteins and lipids. It consists of stacked, flattened sacs called cisternae. Proteins enter the Golgi at the cis face and undergo processing and modification as they move through the cisternae towards the trans face. At the trans face, proteins are selectively packaged into vesicles and transported to their final destinations within or outside the cell. The Golgi apparatus plays important roles in protein modification, secretion, and sorting of macromolecules.
Mutations are permanent changes to an organism's DNA sequence that can arise due to mistakes during DNA replication or damage from environmental factors. There are two main types of mutations - chromosomal mutations, which involve changes in chromosome structure like deletions, duplications, inversions or translocations, and gene mutations, such as point mutations or frameshift mutations. Point mutations include substitutions, insertions or deletions of single nucleotide bases, while frameshift mutations are caused by insertions or deletions of multiple nucleotides. Chromosomal mutations can lead to conditions like Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, or duplication syndromes.
A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light. The DNA sequence of a gene can be altered in a number of ways. Gene mutations have varying effects on health, depending on where they occur and whether they alter the function of essential proteins. Mutations are two types that are Gene mutation and Chromosome mutation. Gene mutation are further divided into Point and frameshift mutation. Point mutation are three types ie. Silent mutation, Missense mutation and Nonsense mutation. Frameshift mutation are of two types that are addition and deletion. Chromosome mutations are further classified into Deletion, duplication, inversion and translocation.
Second messengers are small intracellular molecules that amplify signals received at cell surface receptors and help transmit them to target molecules inside the cell. The document discusses four main classes of second messengers - cyclic nucleotides, membrane lipid derivatives, calcium ions, and gases like nitric oxide. It provides details on several important second messengers, including cAMP, cGMP, IP3, DAG, and calcium ions, and how they mediate intracellular signaling pathways and cellular responses.
Cells communicate through signaling molecules that are detected by receptors on other cells. Signals are transmitted across the cell membrane by signal transduction pathways and cause changes in cell function. Signals may target nearby (paracrine), distant (endocrine), or adjacent (juxtacrine) cells. Ion channels in the cell membrane are important for signal transduction and are classified by their method of gating, such as ligand-gated channels that open in response to neurotransmitters.
This document provides an overview of signal transduction mechanisms. It discusses various types of receptors including G protein-coupled receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases, integrins, toll-like receptors and ligand-gated ion channels. It describes how extracellular ligands bind to cell surface receptors and initiate intracellular signaling pathways such as the cAMP pathway and phosphatidylinositol pathway. Defects in these signaling pathways can lead to diseases. The document provides details on the mechanisms of G protein-coupled receptor signaling and downstream effects.
Oncogenes are mutated proto-oncogenes that can cause normal cells to become cancerous. Proto-oncogenes regulate cell growth and differentiation and are involved in signal transduction and mitogenic signals. They can become oncogenes through point mutations, increased expression from gene amplification, or chromosomal translocations. The first confirmed oncogene, src, was discovered in 1970. Oncogenes are classified into groups based on their functions, such as secreted growth factors, cell surface receptors, intracellular transducers, and regulators of the cell cycle. The challenge is developing cancer treatments that kill cancer cells without harming healthy cells.
1) Apoptosis is a process of programmed cell death that is important for normal development and physiology, as it helps remove excess, damaged, or dangerous cells.
2) It occurs through intrinsic and extrinsic pathways that involve caspase proteases and results in characteristic cell changes like blebbing and nuclear fragmentation.
3) Between 50-70 billion cells die per day in humans due to apoptosis, which is critical for processes like immune system maturation and tissue remodeling.
The document discusses cell cycle, cell death, necrosis, and apoptosis. It defines necrosis as unprogrammed cell death caused by external factors like trauma or toxins. Necrosis leads to cell membrane rupture and inflammation. The types of necrosis include coagulative, liquefactive, fat, caseous, and gangrenous necrosis. Apoptosis is defined as programmed cell death that occurs normally in development and to remove damaged cells. During apoptosis, cells shrink and fragment into apoptotic bodies without membrane rupture or inflammation. The mechanisms of apoptosis involve intrinsic and extrinsic pathways that activate caspase enzymes to break down cellular components in a regulated execution phase.
The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle, including its main phases (interphase consisting of G1, S, G2 phases and the mitosis phase) and their characteristics. It also discusses meiosis, its two divisions, and its significance in forming gametes. Control of the cell cycle involves positive regulators like cyclins and CDKs that promote the cycle and negative regulators like Rb and p53 tumor suppressor proteins that inhibit the cycle progression under certain conditions. Checkpoints exist at different phases to ensure replication and chromosome separation are completed before progression.
The cell cycle and its regulation is controlled by checkpoints to ensure proper cell division. It involves the phases of interphase (G1, S, G2) and mitosis (M). Positive regulators like cyclins and CDKs promote cell cycle progression, while negative regulators including Rb and p53 proteins inhibit the cell cycle in response to DNA damage or other problems. Precise regulation of the cell cycle is essential for normal cell function and proliferation.
The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle:
1) The cell cycle is the series of events by which a cell duplicates its genome and divides into two identical daughter cells, and consists of interphase (G1, S, G2 phases) and mitosis.
2) Progression through the cell cycle is regulated by checkpoints at G1, G2 and metaphase to ensure accurate DNA replication and chromosome segregation.
3) The activity of cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases and their inhibitors control progression through the different cell cycle phases.
4) Cancer results from defects in cell cycle regulation and checkpoint genes that lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation.

Neoplasia involves abnormal and uncontrolled cell growth. The document discusses various types of growth disturbances like atrophy, hypertrophy, hyperplasia, metaplasia and dysplasia. It also discusses regulation of the cell cycle which involves cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases and tumor suppressor genes. The cell cycle consists of interphase and mitotic phase, which is further divided into specific stages. Chromosomal abnormalities can be numerical involving extra or missing chromosomes or structural involving changes in chromosome structure.
The document summarizes the cell cycle and its regulation. It describes the main stages of the cell cycle - interphase consisting of G1, S, and G2 phases and the M phase. Key regulators of the cell cycle include cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, and checkpoints like G1, G2, and M that ensure fidelity of DNA replication and chromosome segregation. Dysregulation of these processes can lead to genomic instability and cancer.

The document summarizes key aspects of the cell cycle and its implications for cancer therapy. It describes the cell cycle clock and checkpoints that regulate progression through the different phases. Dysregulation of cyclins, CDKs, and CDK inhibitors can disrupt normal cell cycle control and lead to uncontrolled proliferation. Tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes play important roles in cancer by influencing the cell cycle. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy target rapidly dividing cancer cells, aiming to push them through checkpoints where they are most vulnerable. CDK4 inhibitors show promise for breast cancer treatment by decreasing the proliferation marker Ki67.

It then explains the different phases of the cell cycle, including interphase (G1, S, G2 phases) and mitosis. Key control mechanisms like cyclin-dependent kinases and checkpoints are described. Alterations in cell cycle pathways and genes can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and cancer. Understanding the cell cycle provides opportunities to target specific phases with chemotherapy or radiotherapy to treat cancer.
Why do different cell types' rates of the cell cycle differ?
The cell cycle is swiftly completed by injured or lost cell types to produce replacements.
Adult skin and digestive tract cells go through the cell cycle quite fast, whereas nervous system cells divide very seldom.
Cells divide regularly during embryonic development, perhaps as frequently as once or twice an hour, moving through the cell cycle very quickly.
What is the cell cycle?
The regular sequence of activities that cells go through as they develop and divide is known as the cell cycle. Prokaryotic cells go through a rapid cycle of cell division, DNA replication, and expansion. In prokaryotes, cell division occurs in a single stage known as binary fission (shown right).Compared to prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells have a more complicated cell cycle.
How is the eukaryotic cell cycle divided?
Interphase is the period between cell divisions. Depending on the kind of cell, the interphase might be shorter or longer.
The three stages or phases of the eukaryotic interphase are G1, S, and G2.
The M phase of the cell cycle is when eukaryotic cells divide. Mitosis and cytokinesis are the two stages that make up the M phase.
What happens during each phase of eukaryotic interphase?
G1: Cells do most of their growing during this phase. It begins when mitosis is complete and ends when DNA replication begins.
S: DNA is synthesized as chromosomes are replicated.
G2: Many of the molecules and cell structures required for cell division are produced; usually the shortest phase of the cell cycle.
What happens during the M phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle?
The M phase is usually much shorter than interphase and results in two daughter cells.
The first step of the M phase is mitosis. The cell’s nucleus divides during mitosis.
The second step of the M phase is cytokinesis, during which the cell’s cytoplasm is divided.
What are the steps of mitosis?
Mitosis consists of four steps: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Prophase: nuclear envelope breaks down, DNA condenses, spindle begins to form.
Metaphase: replicated chromosomes, which appear as paired sister chromatids, line up across the center of the cell and attach to spindle.
Anaphase: sister chromatids separate and move toward ends of the cell.
Telophase: chromosomes disperse, nuclear envelope reforms.
What completes the M phase of the cell cycle?
Cytokinesis completes the M phase of the cell cycle. It may begin while telophase is still taking place.
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm (which includes all of the contents of a eukaryotic cell outside the nucleus) draws inward, eventually pinching off into two nearly equal parts. Each part contains a nucleus.
In plant cells and other eukaryotic cells that have a cell wall, a cell plate forms halfway between the divided nuclei. It gradually develops into cell membranes and forms a complete cell wall surrounding each daughter cell.
Upon the completion of cytokinesis and the M phase, a
Cell division in yeast involves four main processes - cell growth, DNA replication, chromosome separation, and cell division. These occur in distinct phases: interphase consisting of G1, S, and G2 phases, and mitosis. Progression through the cell cycle is regulated by protein kinases like MPF and CDK1 to ensure DNA replication only occurs once per cycle and that the cell grows to the proper size before dividing. Checkpoints in G1, S, G2, and mitosis further ensure replication and division errors are corrected before progression.
Cell division in yeast involves four main processes - cell growth, DNA replication, chromosome separation, and cell division. These occur in distinct phases: interphase (G1, S, G2) and mitosis (M). Progression between phases is controlled by protein kinases like MPF and CDK1. Checkpoints ensure events are completed properly before progression. DNA replicates only once per cycle due to licensing/de-licensing of MCM proteins. External signals also regulate the cell cycle, especially passage from G1 to S.

The cell cycle consists of interphase and the mitotic phase. Interphase includes G1, S, and G2 phases where the cell grows and duplicates its DNA. The mitotic phase includes mitosis and cytokinesis where the cell separates its duplicated DNA and divides into two daughter cells. There are checkpoints at the G1/S and G2/M transitions to ensure DNA is intact before replication and division. Tumor suppressor proteins like p53 and Rb regulate the cell cycle by inducing growth arrest or apoptosis in response to DNA damage to prevent cancer.
The document provides an overview of the cell cycle, including its key phases (interphase consisting of G1, S, and G2 phases and the M phase), events that occur during each phase such as DNA replication in S phase, and control mechanisms. It discusses critical cell cycle regulators like cyclins and CDKs that form complexes to drive the cell cycle forward, as well as checkpoints that monitor cell growth and DNA integrity to ensure cells are ready to progress through the cycle. The cell cycle is tightly regulated by both intrinsic factors including cyclins and CDKs, and extrinsic factors like growth factors that influence division.
The document summarizes the key components and functions of the human endocrine system. It describes the major endocrine glands, including the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pancreas, and reproductive glands. It explains that the endocrine glands release hormones like thyroxine and insulin to regulate processes throughout the body, such as metabolism and calcium levels, and that the hypothalamus and pituitary gland help coordinate the endocrine and nervous systems. Feedback loops work to maintain homeostasis by inhibiting or stimulating hormone release based on levels in the bloodstream.
Animals are multicellular, heterotrophic eukaryotes that lack cell walls. They digest food internally and have muscle and nerve cells. Most animals reproduce sexually and go through developmental stages like fertilization, gastrulation, and metamorphosis. The document describes several animal phyla including poriferans like sponges, cnidarians like jellyfish, molluscs like snails and clams, flatworms, and others. It covers characteristics like body structure, symmetry, tissues, and life cycles.

The circulatory system transports blood throughout the body via the heart and blood vessels. The heart has four chambers and uses valves to pump oxygenated blood from the lungs and deoxygenated blood to the lungs. Blood flows through arteries, capillaries, and veins. The respiratory system exchanges gases through the nose, pharynx, trachea, bronchi, and alveoli in the lungs. Breathing is controlled by the medulla oblongata and diaphragm. Smoking damages lungs and increases risk of diseases like cancer, emphysema, and bronchitis.
The circulatory system is responsible for transporting substances like oxygen, nutrients, hormones around the body, and removing carbon dioxide and wastes to be eliminated. It has three main components: blood, blood vessels, and the heart. Blood carries oxygen from the lungs to tissues, nutrients from the intestines to cells, and waste products to the kidneys. It also regulates temperature, transports hormones, and protects the body from pathogens. The heart has four chambers and valves that pump blood through two circuits - pulmonary circulation to the lungs and systemic circulation to the rest of the body. An aneurysm is a bulge or weakening in an artery wall often caused by high blood pressure or other factors.
This document provides information about the characteristics of animals and describes several animal phyla. It begins by defining animals as eukaryotic, multicellular, heterotrophic organisms that ingest nutrients and digest food internally. It then discusses invertebrate phyla including sponges, cnidarians, molluscs, flatworms, annelids, roundworms, and arthropods, providing details on key characteristics and examples for each. It also addresses animal phylogeny and classification.
The document discusses key abiotic factors that influence ecosystem structure and function, including temperature, moisture, light, pH, soil quality, salinity, water current, nutrient availability, and salt concentration. Specifically, it notes that: 1) Temperature constraints limit physiological activity and many organisms have adapted to withstand high temperatures like fires. 2) Salt concentrations affect water uptake and influence crop yields, with some plants tolerating high salt concentrations. 3) pH affects plant and animal distribution, with most plant roots damaged below pH 3 or above 9. 4) Light availability regulates plant and animal daily/seasonal rhythms and breeding cycles.
There are several types of reproduction that can result in multiple births. Some types of multiple births include twins, triplets or more. The main types are fraternal twins which come from two separate eggs and identical twins which come from the same egg splitting in two.
The circulatory system is responsible for transporting substances like oxygen, nutrients, hormones around the body, and removing carbon dioxide and wastes to be eliminated. It has three main components: blood, blood vessels, and the heart. Blood carries oxygen from the lungs to tissues, and carbon dioxide from tissues back to the lungs. It also transports nutrients, waste, secretions, and helps regulate temperature and fluid balance. The heart has four chambers and valves that pump blood through two circuits - pulmonary circulation to the lungs and systemic circulation to the body. An aneurysm is a bulge or weakening in an artery wall.
The document summarizes science and technology in pre-colonial Asian societies, including Mesopotamia, Indus Valley, Vedic civilization in India, and China. It describes key developments in these early civilizations, such as irrigation systems, writing, mathematics, astronomy, architecture, tools, weapons, and religious beliefs. The Mesopotamians invented the wheel, plow, and cuneiform writing. The Indus Valley civilization had urban planning with drainage systems, and the Vedic people made contributions to mathematics, medicine, metallurgy, and physics. China advanced in mathematics, astronomy, engineering, and other fields.
The document traces the development of science, technology, and systems of communication from ancient times to the modern world. It discusses how early civilizations in Egypt and Mesopotamia developed writing systems like hieroglyphics, cuneiform, and papyrus that allowed the spread of ideas. Major inventions like the printing press and later the World Wide Web transformed society by enabling the mass production and dissemination of information.
This document discusses humanism, technology, and dehumanization. It defines humanism as valuing human agency, freedom, and evidence over dogma. Key figures like Maslow and Rogers who advocated for humanistic approaches are discussed. While technology can potentially humanize through interaction and reflection, it also risks dehumanizing by treating people as machines without individuality or empathy. The document argues technology should augment teaching and learning by supporting meaningful, creative, and collaborative problem-solving rather than replacing the teacher or treating students as passive learners.
The history of educational technology can be traced back to ancient cultures that developed systems of knowledge and invented writing to record and transmit information. In ancient Greece, the term "techne" referred to the systematic application of knowledge to instruction. Major contributors in the 19th century included Edward Thorndike, who formulated the scientific theory of learning, and John Dewey, who introduced the scientific method to instruction. The 19th century also saw effective technological developments like textbooks, blackboards, and improved writing tools. Visual instruction became popularized through photography's invention. Instructional television and early computers were developed throughout the 20th century, leading to the internet revolution of the 1990s.
Equinoxes occur twice yearly when the sun is directly above the equator and day and night are approximately equal in length. Solstices occur twice yearly when the sun reaches its highest or lowest point in the sky, resulting in the longest and shortest days of the year in the summer and winter respectively in each hemisphere. The document then provides details on the timing and effects of the summer and winter solstices and spring and autumn equinoxes in both hemispheres.
The three main hypotheses for the origin of the moon are that it was either 1) a small planet captured by Earth's gravity, 2) formed alongside Earth from the same dust and gas cloud, or 3) ripped away from the Earth as a bulge when the young Earth spun faster. The moon has dark lava plains called maria, ancient highlands made of different rock, and many circular craters from impacts. It rotates in sync with its orbit around Earth, always keeping the same face toward our planet and exhibiting phases from new to full.
The Giant Impact Theory proposes that the Moon was formed about 4.5 billion years ago from the debris of a collision between the early Earth and a Mars-sized protoplanet. This collision created a disk of molten rock and debris that eventually consolidated to form the Moon. Some earlier ideas on the Moon's formation included it forming alongside Earth or being captured after forming elsewhere in the solar system.
The document discusses lunar eclipses. It defines different types of lunar eclipses including penumbral, partial, and total eclipses. The next visible total lunar eclipse will occur on January 31, 2018 and will be seen in Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, and western North America. During a lunar eclipse, the moon appears red due to Rayleigh scattering, which scatters blue light from the sun more than red light when it passes through the earth's atmosphere. For an eclipse to occur, the moon must pass within 11.38 degrees of the ecliptic plane at either its ascending or descending node where it intersects the ecliptic.
This document contains definitions and examples related to motion concepts including speed, average speed, velocity, and acceleration. It defines average speed as total distance traveled divided by total time. It provides an example of calculating average speed when speeds vary throughout a trip. It also defines velocity as a measure of both speed and direction of motion. Velocity is defined as distance divided by time. The document provides examples of calculating acceleration from changes in speed over time.
This document provides an introduction to physical science. It begins by defining science and listing the main branches - biological science, physical science, and social science. Biological science deals with living things, social science deals with human behavior and societies. Physical science deals with non-living things, their properties, structures, and changes.
The main branches of physical science are then outlined as chemistry, physics, astronomy, geology, and meteorology. Chemistry studies matter and its properties and changes. Physics studies matter and energy. Astronomy studies the universe and celestial bodies. Geology studies Earth materials, structures, and processes. Meteorology studies the atmosphere and weather/climate.
The document then transitions to discussing measurement in physical science. Measurement
Hydrogen sulfide and metal-enriched atmosphere for a Jupiter-mass exoplanetSérgio Sacani
We observed two transits of HD 189733b in JWST program 1633 using JWST
NIRCam grism F444W and F322W2 filters on August 25 and 29th 2022. The first
visit with F444W used SUBGRISM64 subarray lasting 7877 integrations with 4
BRIGHT1 groups per integration. Each effective integration is 2.4s for a total effective exposure time of 18780.9s and a total exposure duration of 21504.2s (∼6 hrs)
including overhead. The second visit with F322W2 used SUBGRISM64 subarray
lasting 10437 integrations with 3 BRIGHT1 groups per integration. Each effective
integration is 1.7s for a total effective exposure time of 17774.7s and a total exposure
duration of 21383.1s (∼6 hrs) including overhead. The transit duration of HD189733
b is ∼1.8 hrs and both observations had additional pre-ingress baseline relative to
post-egress baseline in anticipating the potential ramp systematics at the beginning
of the exposure from NIRCam infrared detectors.
Dalghren, Thorne and Stebbins System of Classification of AngiospermsGurjant Singh
The Dahlgren, Thorne, and Stebbins system of classification is a modern method for categorizing angiosperms (flowering plants) based on phylogenetic relationships. Developed by botanists Rolf Dahlgren, Robert Thorne, and G. Ledyard Stebbins, this system emphasizes evolutionary relationships and incorporates extensive morphological and molecular data. It aims to provide a more accurate reflection of the genetic and evolutionary connections among angiosperm families and orders, facilitating a better understanding of plant diversity and evolution. This classification system is a valuable tool for botanists, researchers, and horticulturists in studying and organizing the vast diversity of flowering plants.

Search for Dark Matter Ionization on the Night Side of Jupiter with CassiniSérgio Sacani
We present a new search for dark matter (DM) using planetary atmospheres. We point out that
annihilating DM in planets can produce ionizing radiation, which can lead to excess production of
ionospheric Hþ
3 . We apply this search strategy to the night side of Jupiter near the equator. The night side
has zero solar irradiation, and low latitudes are sufficiently far from ionizing auroras, leading to a lowbackground search. We use Cassini data on ionospheric Hþ
3 emission collected three hours either side of
Jovian midnight, during its flyby in 2000, and set novel constraints on the DM-nucleon scattering cross
section down to about 10−38 cm2. We also highlight that DM atmospheric ionization may be detected in
Jovian exoplanets using future high-precision measurements of planetary spectra.

The cryptoterrestrial hypothesis: A case for scientific openness to a conceal...Sérgio Sacani
Recent years have seen increasing public attention and indeed concern regarding Unidentified
Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). Hypotheses for such phenomena tend to fall into two classes: a
conventional terrestrial explanation (e.g., human-made technology), or an extraterrestrial explanation
(i.e., advanced civilizations from elsewhere in the cosmos). However, there is also a third minority
class of hypothesis: an unconventional terrestrial explanation, outside the prevailing consensus view of
the universe. This is the ultraterrestrial hypothesis, which includes as a subset the “cryptoterrestrial”
hypothesis, namely the notion that UAP may reflect activities of intelligent beings concealed in stealth
here on Earth (e.g., underground), and/or its near environs (e.g., the moon), and/or even “walking
among us” (e.g., passing as humans). Although this idea is likely to be regarded sceptically by most
scientists, such is the nature of some UAP that we argue this possibility should not be summarily
dismissed, and instead deserves genuine consideration in a spirit of epistemic humility and openness.
A mature quasar at cosmic dawn revealed by JWST rest-frame infrared spectroscopySérgio Sacani
The rapid assembly of the first supermassive black holes is an enduring mystery. Until now, it was not known whether quasar ‘feeding’ structures (the ‘hot torus’) could assemble as fast as the smaller-scale quasar structures. We present JWST/MRS (rest-frame infrared) spectroscopic observations of the quasar J1120+0641 at z = 7.0848 (well within the epoch of reionization). The hot torus dust was clearly detected at λrest ≃ 1.3 μm, with a black-body temperature of
K, slightly elevated compared to similarly luminous quasars at lower redshifts. Importantly, the supermassive black hole mass of J1120+0641 based on the Hα line (accessible only with JWST), MBH = 1.52 ± 0.17 × 109 M⊙, is in good agreement with previous ground-based rest-frame ultraviolet Mg II measurements. Comparing the ratios of the Hα, Paα and Paβ emission lines to predictions from a simple one-phase Cloudy model, we find that they are consistent with originating from a common broad-line region with physical parameters that are consistent with lower-redshift quasars. Together, this implies that J1120+0641’s accretion structures must have assembled very quickly, as they appear fully ‘mature’ less than 760 Myr after the Big Bang.
Keys of Identification for Indian Wood: A Seminar ReportGurjant Singh
Identifying Indian wood involves recognizing key characteristics such as grain patterns, color, texture, hardness, and specific anatomical features. These identification keys include observing the wood's pores, growth rings, and resin canals, as well as its scent and weight. Understanding these features is essential for accurate wood identification, which is crucial for various applications in carpentry, furniture making, and conservation.
Additionally, the application of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in wood identification has revolutionized this field. CNNs can analyze images of wood samples to identify species with high accuracy by learning and recognizing intricate patterns and features. This technological advancement not only enhances the precision of wood identification but also accelerates the process, making it more efficient for industry professionals and researchers alike.

3. OVERVIEW: THE KEY ROLES OF CELL
DIVISION
The ability of organisms to reproduce best distinguishes
living things from non-living matter.
The continuity of life is based upon the reproduction of
cells, or cell division.
Cell division is integral part of cell cycle.
6. INTERPHASE: G1 PHASE
• Recovery from previous
division
• Cell doubles its organelles
• Cell grows in size
• Accumulates raw materials
for DNA synthesis (DNA
replication)
fatimaArivera
7. INTERPHASE: S PHASE
• DNA replication
• Proteins associated with DNA
are synthesized
fatimaArivera
8. INTERPHASE: G2 PHASE
• Between DNA replication and
onset of mitosis
• Cell synthesizes proteins
necessary for division
fatimaArivera
9. CELL CYCLE: MITOSIS PHASE
Mitosis phase includes:
• Mitosis (karyokinesis)
• Nuclear division
• Daughter chromosomes
distributed to two daughter
nuclei
• Cytokinesis
• Cytoplasm division
• Results in two genetically
identical daughter cells
fatimaArivera
11. SIGNIFICANCE OF MITOSIS
• Permits growth and repair.
• In plants it retains the ability to
divide throughout the life of the
plant
• In mammals, mitosis is necessary:
• Fertilized egg becomes an
embryo
• Embryo becomes a fetus
• Allows a cut to heal or a broken
bone to mend
fatimaArivera
12. MITOSIS PHASE: PROPHASE
What’s happening?
• Chromatin condenses.
• Centrosomes separate,
moving to opposite ends
of the nucleus
• The centrosomes start to
form a framework used to
separate the two sister
chromatids called the
mitotic spindle, that is
made of microtubules
• Nucleolus disappears
• Nuclear envelope
disintegrates
What the cell looks like?
fatimaArivera
13. MITOSIS PHASE: PROMETAPHASE
What’s happening?
• Nuclear envelope
fragments
• Chromosomes become
more condensed
• A kinetochore is formed
at the centromere, the
point where the sister
chromatids are attached
• Microtubules attach at
the kinetochores
What the cell looks like?
fatimaArivera
14. MITOSIS PHASE: METAPHASE
What’s happening?
• Chromosomes align on
an axis called the
metaphase plate
• Note: the spindle
consists of
microtubules, one
attached to each
chromosome
What the cell looks like?
fatimaArivera
15. MITOSIS PHASE: ANAPHASE
What’s happening?
• Each centromere splits
making two chromatids
free
• Each chromatid moves
toward a pole
• Cell begins to elongate,
caused by microtubules
not associated with the
kinetochore
What the cell looks like?
fatimaArivera
16. MITOSIS PHASE: TELOPHASE
What’s happening?
• Formation of nuclear
membrane and nucleolus
• Short and thick
chromosomes begin to
elongate to form long and
thin chromatin
• Formation of the cleavage
furrow - a shallow groove in
the cell near the old
metaphase plate
• Cytokinesis = division of the
cytoplasm
What the cell looks like?
fatimaArivera
17. RESULTS OF MITOSIS
fatimaArivera
• Two daughter nuclei
• Each with same
chromosome number as
parent cell ( 2n)
• Genetically identical to
each other and the
parent cell
18. MEIOSIS
• Formation of Gametes (Eggs & Sperm)
• Called Reduction- division
• Preceded by interphase which includes
chromosome replication
• Two meiotic divisions
• Meiosis I and Meiosis II
• Original cell is diploid (2n)
• Four daughter cells produced that are
haploid (n)
fatimaArivera
19. SIGNIFICANCE OF MEIOSIS
• Two haploid (1n) gametes are brought together
through fertilization to form a diploid (2n) zygote
fatimaArivera
20. SIGNIFICANCE OF MEIOSIS
• Meiosis must reduce the chromosome number by half
• Fertilization then restores the 2n number
from mom from dad child

36. Intracellular control of the cell
cycle
The cell cycle is controlled by
regulator molecules that either:
promote the process (positive)
stop it from progressing (negative)
fatimaArivera
37. Positive: Cdks & Cyclins
Cyclins
◦ The regulatory subunits of the protein
kinases that control the cell cycle
Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (Cdks)
◦ The catalytic subunits of the protein
kinases
◦ Must be associated with a cyclin in order
to be activated
fatimaArivera
39. Negative: Rb & p53
Tumor suppressor genes
Tumor suppressor gene codes for a
signaling protein in an inhibitory
pathway. If a tumor suppressor gene
mutates, the end result can be
active cell division.
fatimaArivera
40. Negative: Rb & p53
◦ Retinoblastoma protein(Rb)
◦ prevents cell moving into S phase by
binding to a transcription factor
◦ When Rb is phosphorylated it cannot bind
so cell can move into S phase
◦ p53
◦ prevents damaged from dividing (by
inhibiting Rb pathway)
fatimaArivera
41. Retinoblastoma protein (Rb)
fatimaArivera
Rb halts the cell cycle by binding E2F. Rb releases its hold on E2F in
response to cell growth to advance the cell cycle.
• group of tumor-suppressor proteins
42. p53
p53 protein halts cell division if it detects
damaged DNA
options:
stimulates repair enzymes to fix DNA
forces cell into G0 resting stage
keeps cell in G1 arrest
causes apoptosis of damaged cell
ALL cancers have to shut down p53 activity
Cancer is essentially a failure of cell division

• Some factors
stimulate both
growth and cell
cycle progression
54. protein signals released by body
cells that stimulate other cells to
divide
density-dependent inhibition
crowded cells stop dividing
each cell binds a bit of growth factor
not enough activator left to trigger
division in any one cell
anchorage dependence

substrate
“touch sensor” receptors
GROWTH FACTORS
55. NORMAL CELLS NEED BOTH MITOGENS AND
“ANCHORAGE”- TO ENTER A NEW CELL
CYCLE
57. SURVIVAL FACTOR: MYOSTATIN
• Myostatins are inhibitory factors that inhibit the proliferation of
myoblast that fuse to form skeletal muscle cells.
• Myostatin Mutants decrease apoptosis in muscle tissue
