The mystery of why life uses molecules with specific orientations has deepened with a discovery that RNA—a key molecule ...

Chlorophyll (a naturally occurring pigment involved in photosynthesis)-inspired molecules hold promise for developing next-generation light-harvesting materials. However, achieving precise control ...

Scientists with the Human Cell Atlas have profiled 100 million cells from over 10,000 people worldwide, aiming to map the ...

Ensuring food security amidst these challenges is contingent on the constant development of resilient plant varieties capable ...

Animal and plant cells have different energy-producing structures inside them. For animals, that’s mitochondria , which convert chemical energy from food into a form that our cells can use.

Previously, it was believed that chloroplasts, which are light-capturing structures essential to plant and algae cells, could not function within animal cells. However, the chloroplasts survived ...

It was previously thought that combining chloroplasts (chlorophyll containing structures in the cells of plants and algae) with animal cells was not possible, and that the chloroplasts would not ...

Vice President Kamala Harris revealed in an interview that she would continue to rely on Venn diagrams if elected president. Harris admitted she has an ‘obsession’ with Venn diagram visual aid ...
