Euchromatin Euchromatin are chromosome material which does not stain strongly except during cell division. It represents the major genes and is involved in transcription. Euchromatin comprises the most active portion of the genome within the cell nucleus (92% of the human genome is euchromatic). When observed under an optical microscope, euchromatin appears as light-colored bands. … Read more
Convex Lens If a piece of glass or other transparent material takes on the appropriate shape, it is possible that parallel incident rays would either converge to a point or appear to be diverging from a point. Therefore, a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a beam of light by means of refraction is … Read more
What Is Divergent Evolution? Divergent evolution is type of evolution whereby a single or same species with marginally different variations in genetic code evolve different traits and diverge into two or more different species. Divergent evolution may occur as a response to changes in abiotic factors such as change in environmental conditions or when a … Read more
The heart is a pump that supplies all tissues and organs with oxygen rich blood. The heartbeat is caused by the heart muscles relaxing and contracting.
