Are
we unique?
-
How does the human
mind compare? Are human beings, by virtue of their intelligence, unique?
James Trefil, noted science author and physics professor at George Mason
University, explores these.

The
Biology Project
-
The Biology Project,
an interactive online resource for learning biology developed at The University
of Arizona. The Biology Project is fun, richly illustrated, and tested
on 1000s of students. It has been designed for biology students at the
college and high school level, but is useful for medical students, physicians,
science writers, and all types of interested people.

Mitosis
Page - http://www.inform.umd.edu/PBIO/wolniak/wolniakmitosis.html
-
Mitosis is the
process that facilitates the equal partitioning of replicated chromosomes
into two identical groups. Before partitioning can occur, the chromosomes
must become aligned so that the separation process can occur in an orderly
fashion. The alignment of replicated chromosomes and their separation into
two groups is a process that can be observed in virtually all eukaryotic
cells.
