Types of Brain Imaging Techniques By MICHAEL DEMITRI, M.D. Brain imaging techniques allow doctors and researchers to view activity or problems within the human brain, without invasive neurosurgery. There are a number of accepted, safe imaging techniques in use today in research facilities and hospitals throughout the world. fMRI Functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, is a technique for measuring brain activity. It works by detecting the changes in blood oxygenation and flow that

Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).When the cell divides, chromatin condenses to form chromosomes. Chromosomes have DNA that are tightly packed to fit within a cell. Humans have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).When cells divide to produce new cells to replace the old ,Chromosomes are a key part that ensures DNA is accurately copied and distributed in the vast majority of cell divisions. Chromosomes work with nucleic acid

Metabolism: Transformations and Interactions I. Chemical Reactions in the Body Plants use the sun’s energy to make carbohydrate from carbon dioxide and water. This is called photosynthesis. Humans and animals eat the plants and use the carbohydrate as fuel for their bodies. During digestion, the energy-yielding nutrients are broken down to monosaccharides, fatty acids, glycerol, and amino acids. After absorption, enzymes and coenzymes can build more complex compounds. In metabolism they

Вступ The Greenhouse Effect The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring process that aids in heating the Earth's surface and atmosphere. It results from the fact that certain atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane, are able to change the energy balance of the planet by absorbing longwave radiation emitted from the Earth's surface. Without the greenhouse effect life on this planet would probably not exist as the average temperature of the Earth would be a chilly -18°
