When you bite into a juicy hamburger, slice into the perfect medium-rare steak or gobble down a plateful of chicken nuggets, ...

Cells are tiny but inside that tiny structure are more tiny structures, and different cells have different functions to make your body work the way it needs to. So let’s learn more about cells! The ...

The researchers examined the structure of the chloroplasts within ... In this study, it found that animal cells which contained chloroplasts experienced an increased cell growth rate, suggesting ...

The primary cilia observed in this study originated from both animal and human beta cells. The researchers investigated how the skeletal structure (axoneme) formed from microtubules is organized.

Scientists have observed a type of cell division in a prehistoric unicellular organism that resembles the embryonic ...

Scientists from the University of Tokyo have successfully engineered animal cells capable of photosynthesis. The team used chloroplasts from schyzon, a species that thrives in volcanic hot springs ...

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.

In an incredible feat that redefines biological boundaries, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that are capable of photosynthesis. This breakthrough, led by Professor Sachihiro ...
