A microinjection apparatus is usually used for delivery into an embryo, with injections most commonly performed at the single-cell or few-cell stage ; an alternative method for embryonic delivery is electroporation, which can deliver oligos into tissues of later embryonic stages.

The ability to image single-cell migration in real time is expected to be important to several research areas such as embryogenesis, cancer metastasis, stem cell therapeutics, and lymphocyte immunology.

The first single-cell version of the Daniell cell was invented in 1837 by the Guy's hospital physician Golding Bird who used a plaster of Paris barrier to keep the solutions separate.

* multipotency or multidifferentiative potential, which is the ability to generate progeny of several distinct cell types, ( for example glial cells and neurons ) as opposed to unipotency, which is the term for cells that are restricted to producing a single-cell type.

This theory suggests that the first multicellular organisms occurred from symbiosis ( cooperation ) of different species of single-cell organisms, each with different roles.

Using single-cell recording techniques, Dr. Emilio Bizzi and his collaborators have shown the behavior of certain cells, known as " memory cells ," can undergo lasting alteration with practice.

The food chain of the Beaufort Sea is relatively simple: It starts with phytoplankton and epontic algae ( single-cell algae associated with the lower interface of sea ice ), which provide energy to zooplankton, and epontic and coastal amphipods.

Teams within this group are working on a protein-protein interaction map of E. coli, analyzing the genetic variants associated with disease as a step towards personalized medicine, and studying human microbial flora, both at the single-cell level and at the microbiome level as part of the Human Microbiome Project.

With ideal switching elements the output is an integral multiple of the input ( two for a doubler ) but with a single-cell battery as the input source and MOSFET switches the output will be far less than this value since much of the voltage will be dropped across the transistors.

An android is a robot or synthetic organism designed to look and act like a human, especially one with a body having a flesh-like resemblance.

The term " android " can mean either one of these, while a cyborg (" cybernetic organism " or " bionic man ") would be a creature that is a combination of organic and mechanical parts.

Pyrrolysine trait is restricted to several microbes, and only one organism has both Pyl and Sec.

Abalones have been identified as one of the many classes of organism threatened with extinction due to acidification of oceans from anthropogenic carbon dioxide, as reduced pH erodes their shells.

Viral induction of apoptosis occurs when one or several cells of a living organism is infected with a virus leading to cell death.

The chance of offspring with albinism resulting from the pairing of an organism with albinism and one without albinism is low.

Expression data can be used to infer gene regulation: one might compare microarray data from a wide variety of states of an organism to form hypotheses about the genes involved in each state.

The cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells, that all cells come from preexisting cells, that vital functions of an organism occur within cells, and that all cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells.

No one has given a causal explanation, they argue, of why it would not be possible for a functionally equivalent non-conscious organism ( i. e., a philosophical zombie ) to achieve the very same survival advantages as a conscious organism.

A clade is by definition monophyletic, meaning it contains one ancestor ( which can be an organism, a population, or a species ) and all its descendants.

The positions and are said to be within the same cistron when an organism that has the mutation at on one chromosome and has the mutation at position on the paired chromosome exhibits the recessive trait even though the organism is not homozygous for either mutation.

# The organism has one basic tendency and striving-to actualize, maintain and enhance the experiencing organism.

; Polyextremophile: An organism that qualifies as an extremophile under more than one category

Subjects are shielded from all time cues, often by a constant light protocol, by a constant dark protocol or by the use of light / dark conditions to which the organism cannot entrain such as the ultrashort protocol of one hour dark and two hours light.

The term " genetically modified organism " does not always imply, but can include, targeted insertions of genes from one species into another.

Since genomes are very complex, one research strategy is to reduce the number of genes in a genome to the bare minimum and still have the organism in question survive.

Most biologists would accept Daisyworld-style homeostasis as possible, but would not accept the idea that this equates to the whole biosphere acting as one organism.

A hormone ( from Greek, " impetus ") is a chemical released by a cell or a gland in one part of the body that sends out messages that affect cells in other parts of the organism.

An allele is said to be dominant if it is always expressed in the appearance of an organism ( phenotype ) provided that at least one copy of it is present.

Compounds that bind to isolated recombinant proteins are one thing ; chemical tools that can perturb cell function another ; and pharmacological agents that can be tolerated by a live organism and perturb its systems are yet another.

Behe asserts that the absence of any one of these proteins causes the flagella to fail to function, and that the flagellum " engine " is irreducibly complex as if we try to reduce its complexity by positing an earlier and simpler stage of its evolutionary development, we get an organism which functions improperly.

This might indicate that anxiety is a protective mechanism designed to prevent the organism from engaging in potentially harmful behaviors.

However, he cannot permanently ' reprogram ' human minds to believe what he might want them to believe even if he wanted to do so, explaining that the mind is an organism that would always recall the steps necessary for it to reach the present and thus ' rewrite ' itself to its original setting if he tried to change it.

An example of this might be a gene that protects the organism against a disease, which helps the gene spread and also helps the organism.

An extreme variant of biological determinism might assert that an organism's behavior is determined entirely by biological factors, and that all of these factors are innate to that organism e. g. DNA.

The detection of a similar spectral feature in light from an extrasolar planet would be particularly interesting, since it might be due to a light-harvesting organism.

* Stable isotopes have the advantage of not delivering a radiation dose to the system being studied ; however, a significant excess of them in the organ or organism might still interfere with its functionality, and the availability of sufficient amounts for whole-animal studies is limited for many isotopes.

This might have translated later ( possibly after 14th century ) into a generalized meaning of analysis e. g. of important / principle component of a target inside a mixture such as active ingredient of a drug inside the inert excipients in a pharmacological formulation which originally used to be measured by its actual action on an organism ( e. g. lethal dose or inhibitory dose ).

This interpretation is further reinforced by Waddington's discussion of the organization of the gene pool, where he points out that " the epigenetic process occurring during the development of the organism might be so buffered or canalized that the optimum end-result is produced irrespective of the genes which the individual contains.

Nevertheless, he was contemptuous and afraid of the Enlightenment, led by intellectuals such as Rousseau, Voltaire, and Turgot, who disbelieved in divine moral order and original sin, saying that society should be handled like a living organism, that people and society are limitlessly complicated, thus, leading him to conflict with Thomas Hobbes's assertion that politics might be reducible to a deductive system akin to mathematics.

Identifying the genes of this organism might lead to development of new drugs and vaccines.

Pathogenic microorganisms that might be present in it are often cited as the most important, but pathogenic organism counts reduce rapidly with time in the landfill, so this only applies to the most fresh leachate.

It has been proposed that the parietal and frontal cortex along with the cerebellum and pulvinar might be used to direct an organism ’ s attention to a change in the environment.
