BIOLOGY
These blood vessels carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the body's tissues and organs.
What are arteries?
This theorem is followed by Heat engines and gas compressors.
What is Carnot theorem?
This type of heat transfer occurs primarily in solids and stationary fluids.
What is Conduction?
Name the process by which a ribosome reads mRNA and synthesis a corresponding protein.
What is Translation?
This technique involves the replacement of genes that are defective to treat genetic disorders.
What is Gene therapy?
The term refers to a WBC that releases histamine for inflammation which dilates blood vessels.
What are basophils?
This diagram is a graphical representation of enthalpy-entropy of a substance.
What is the Mollier diagram?
Named after a scientist, this law states that the rate of heat transfer between two objects is directly proportional to the temperature difference between them and inversely proportional to the distance separating them.
What is Newton’s law of cooling?
This macromolecule serves as the main component of cell membranes and plays a crucial role in cell signaling and structure.
What are Phospholipids?
This emerging field in chemical engineering focuses on the design and synthesis of materials with specific structures and properties at the nanometer scale.
What is Nanomaterial Engineering?
This international research project, completed in 2003, aimed to sequence and map all the genes of the human genome.
What is the Human Genome Project?
Name the law that provides a relationship between the number of phases, components, and degrees of freedom in a thermodynamic system at equilibrium.
What is Gibbs rule?
This device is used to measure the intensity of electromagnetic radiation, including infrared radiation emitted by objects.
What is Pyranometer?
This process involves the removal of an amino group from an amino acid, typically occurring in the liver.
What is Deamination?
This term refers to a novel in-vitro micro-scale biomimetic platform that helps in reproducing the physiological environment of human organs.
What is Organ of a Chip?
This structure located in the small intestine, is responsible for increasing the surface area for absorption of nutrients from digested food into the bloodstream.
What is Villi?
It's often thought of as a hypothetical pressure that a substance would exert if it behaved ideally in a non-ideal mixture at the same temperature and volume.
What is Fugacity?
This property indicates the ease of a material's surface to emit or absorb radiation.
What is Emissivity?
This enzyme essential for DNA replication, catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to the growing DNA strand during synthesis.
What is DNA Polymerase?
This revolutionary technology refers to a range of applications through which CO2 is captured and used either directly or indirectly in various products.
What is Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU)?
This phenomenon, observed in tall plants, describes the ability of water to move upward against gravity through narrow tubes in the xylem.
What is Capillary action?
This statement states that "It is impossible to construct a device that operates on a cycle and produces no effect other than the transfer of heat from a single thermal reservoir to a mechanical work output."
What is Kelvin-Plank statement?
This law describes how the rate of heat transfer through a material is directly proportional to the temperature difference across it and inversely proportional to the thickness.
What is Fourier’s law of heat conduction?
Discovered in 1977, this enzyme catalyzes the synthesis of DNA from RNA, playing a crucial role in reverse transcription.
What is Reverse transcriptase?
This term refers to an additive manufacturing process that creates a physical object from a digital design.
What is 3D Printing?
