Spores are the single-celled structures. These are formed during the unfavourable conditions. They can survive in a harsh environment. Spores are highly resistant structures, which can withstand harsh conditions like high temperature, pH, salt concentration etc. Spores exist in variable shapes, sizes and numbers. The process of spore formation is called sporulation, and the phenomena …
Electrophoresis separates the biomolecules like proteins, nucleic acids, amino acids etc. according to their size, shape, chemical charge etc. under the control of the electric field. Under the influence of the electric field, a positively charged molecule (Anion) will move towards the negatively charged electrode, i.e. Cation. The negatively charged molecule (Cation) moves towards the …
The blood cells are part of the blood circulatory system. Blood is a fluid, which is pumped out by the heart, then it is circulated throughout the body and then it goes back to the heart through the process called “Circulation of blood”. It consistently flows in the circulatory system and it is also considered …
