  • Ring of Fire and Recent Tectonics Movements

    The Ring of Fire area is a dangerous territory that significantly impacts the tectonic activities of the whole Earth. From the scientific perspective, many plates have irregular positions and are at risk of collision. The plates subduction not only causes massive earthquakes but also provokes global climate change and dangerous tectonic shifts. Scientists are responsible…

  • Neurotransmitters and Mechanisms for Their Removal

    A neuron is at rest when not sending signals. The resting membrane potential of a neuron is approximately -70millivolt. This indicates that the inside of the neuron is approximately 70millivolt less than the outside. When the neuron is at rest, there is more sodium outside the neuron and more ions of potassium inside the neuron.…

  • Analysis of Sense of Smell Aspects

    The sense of smell in humans, and in primates in general, is relatively poorly developed. Nevertheless, it’s role should not be underestimated. It is extremely important for a person, since one of the functions of the sense of smell is to prevent dangers that are invisible to other senses (sight or hearing). With the help…

  • Lifecycles of a Typical Fern and a Typical Conifer

    Life cycle of a typical fern A typical fern is homosporous meaning that it produces a single type of spore which looks and spreads like a seed. In nature, spores have single cells containing only one copy of each chromosome (haploid). In its breeding site, the spore develops into gametophyte that survives through photosynthesis. At…

  • The Earth Planet’s Structure and Layers

    The structure of our planet, Earth, includes seven primary layers. The inner core is a solid one, which is made mainly of iron and nickel. Its radius is 1220 kilometers, and it is boiling. However, the Earth’s outer core is recognized as a liquid layer. Still, its components are the same as the inner core,…
