Bipedalism, or the ability to maintain an erect posture, is one of the most distinguishing characteristics of a human being’s appearance. It is estimated that the human way of walking with an erect posture is about 75% more energy efficient than the method of walking of other quadrupeds or bipedal animals.  The process of switching […]

The signalling mechanisms used by living organisms have been extensively studied and documented over the past decade and a half. The majority of studies have focused on the signalling pathways in yeast. Yeast is a simple model organism for the study of signalling mechanisms due to its small genome size and low cellular complexity. Signal

The very eminent Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve, situated in the Erode district of Coimbatore has recently won the internationally recognized TX2 award after the population of the tigers doubled in 2010. The article is based on the facts that helped the reserve bag such a prestigious position in India.  Introduction: Situated in the Erode district at

So, first of all, we need to know essential commodities. Any commodity that the government deems important is an essential commodity. The Indian Parliament enacted the ECA to assure the delivery of specific commodities or items whose supply, if disrupted by hoarding or black marketing, would harm people’s daily lives. So now, what is sanitiser

Ruminants are animals having a unique gastroenterological tract that allows them to digest plant materials and chew their cud back. Ruminants have a four-chambered stomach, the reticulum, the rumen, the omasum, and the abomasum. The rumen is possibly the most important. It is the primary site of nutrient digestion and absorption. The rumen’s incredible absorption

Immense progression has taken place in recent years and genetic engineering is not an exception to this. Gene editing is also referred to as genome editing and its purpose is to provide plants with the support of making them resilient to any climate. Moreover, this notion has also contributed to several other ways of benefiting

One of the most diverse families of flowering plants, the Rubiaceae are also one of the most underrepresented families in popular culture. That is because their members are more commonly known as “coral plants” due to the bright colours of their flowers. The Rubiaceae contain 3,955 species of mainly tropical perennial plants. The family is

The Rosaceae family includes 4828 known species of flowering plants in 91 genera. They are primarily concentrated in the Northern Hemisphere, in regions that are not desert or tropical rainforest. Systemic classification Kingdom: Plantae Division: Angiosperm Class: Dicotyledones or magnoliopsida Sub-class: Rosidae  Order: Rosales Habitat These are annual, perennial or everlasting plants that are primarily

In biology, the roots are the underground portion of a plant stem. Its key tasks include plant anchoring, moisture and soluble mineral collection and transmission towards the stem, and reserves storage of food. Its root varies from stem primarily in the absence of leaves scarring and budding, the presence of a tip of the root,

Covid – 19 pandemic has been one of the most dreadful diseases and wraths faced by the world in the last centuries. The virus has been saying a lot of variations in its genetic material lately, which of course, has led to fast growth in the spread of the disease and its transmissibility has been
