How Erosion Builds Mountains
massive than all human structures combined and are sculpted in greater detail than a Baroque palace. The world’s tallest pinnacle—Mount Everest in the Himalayas— reaches 8,848 meters, or about 15 times higher than anything people have ever built. Not surprisingly, such spectacular topography has evoked awe and inspired artists and adventurers throughout human existence. Recent research has led ...
متن کاملHow a plant builds leaves.
A leaf develops from a few cells that grow, divide, and differentiate to form a complex organ that is precisely positioned relative to its neighbors. How cells communicate to achieve such coordinated growth and development is the focus of this review. We discuss (1) how the stem cells within the shoot meristem gain competence to form organs, (2) what determines the positioning and initiation of...
متن کاملHow language acquisition builds on cognitive development.
When children acquire a first language, they build on what they know--conceptual information that discriminates and helps create categories for the objects, relations and events they experience. This provides the starting point for language from the age of 12 months on. So children first set up conceptual representations, then add linguistic representations for talking about experience. Do they...
متن کاملHow to Measure a Camera's Response Curve from Scratch
This paper describes how the response curve of a video camera can be determined with the aid of a sheet of paper and two desk lamps only. The calibration process is based on the superposition law of incoherent light and does not make use of any calibrated measurement instrument.
متن کاملGenome Evolution: How Sister Genes Grow Apart
As genomes evolve, proteins with novel functions arise primarily from gene duplication and divergence events. A new study identifies several molecular mechanisms by which related transcription factors diverge over time to control new sets of target genes and novel cellular functions.
