Electron vs light microscope resolution, how does shorter wavelength achieve a higher resolution? Posted: 29 Jul 2018 03:14 AM PDT Electron Microscopes use electron beams which are at a higher energy and thus have a shorter wavelength than light microscopes using light, and this leads to a higher resolution. Why is it wavelength and not amplitude that dictates the resolution of the probe? Is amplitude dependent on energy level, and therefore electron waves have a shorter wavelength and subsequently shorter amplitude? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |
How was Fermat's Last Theorem eventually proved? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 01:09 PM PDT I am more looking for an overview than an in-depth answer, as I know its extremely complicated. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 29 Jul 2018 07:40 AM PDT For example if the resistance of copper increases as the temperature increases but the copper then melts, what will happen to the resistance? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 28 Jul 2018 03:40 PM PDT My initial assumption is that when a neuron is branched (has more than one end point), that all branches would be stimulated simultaneously. However, if this were true in the example provided, this would mean all three fingers would move simultaneously. What mechanisms, then, are in place to selectively stimulate specific neuronal branches? [link] [comments] |
What did dinosaur genitals look like? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 07:41 AM PDT Every cgi T Rex or Triceratops that I've ever seen just looks like a Ken doll. They had to be absolutely hung, right? [link] [comments] |
Why can’t certain types of glass like frosted glass be recycled? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 01:07 PM PDT Having no luck googling this! It seems frosted glass can't be recycled along with a few other types, but no explanation as to why :( [link] [comments] |

Posted: 28 Jul 2018 08:44 PM PDT I read a pamphlet at my sons doctors office a few years ago that explained that vaccines contain x amount of antigens, and that our bodies can actually handle many many more times that. It also said that the number of antigens in a dose has been drastically reduced over time so that we're getting fewer overall even with an increase in number of vaccines. I've been trying to explain this to an anti-vaxxer but its hard to do without actual numbers, and I have no idea how to find that information again. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
How is the voltage inducted in a conductor influenced by the surface bordered by the conductor? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 11:48 AM PDT Ok, so I get the fact that in order for a voltage to be inducted in a conductor, the said conductor has to delimit a surface and the electromagnetic field has to be alternative. So, can someone explain to me the actual reason why this happens only when the conductor can be seen as the border of a surface? Also, I know that the voltage is equal to the speed at which the magnetic flux decreases through the surface, but why is that? I'd like to get some insight on this one since my Electromagnetic Fields teacher is not really willing to answer our questions. P. S. : If you can include why the field has to be a time function that would be great [link] [comments] |
Are there any known mutations to the hox genes of moths? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 02:17 PM PDT So today is as out walking my dog and i found a moth sat on the ground, I picked him up, because it was windy, and was going to put him down but realised it had 2 vestigial legs on one side of its face. I know its a thing in flies however I haven't heard of it in moths? Thought I'd ask here as I'm quite interested. [link] [comments] |
How much energy does it take to sustain a nuclear fusion reaction for a given time? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 08:03 PM PDT |
Posted: 28 Jul 2018 01:06 PM PDT Neurons in the vertebrate CNS are peculiarly susceptible to programmed cell death because excitatory-neurotransmitter receptors can't selectively admit specific ions and over-excitation leads to mass calcium influx, which triggers apoptosis. Is it possible for a drug to alter the NMDA receptor ion pore to exclude calcium ions? This would increase a patient's likelihood of surviving transient hypoxia or anything that prevents the brain from meeting its anonymously high caloric demands. If I'm not completely mistaken, that is. I know magnesium interacts non-competitively with the NMDA receptor ion channel to diminish calcium conductance. Could we create a more effective, pharmacological substance that would prevent rapid calcium influx when the ion pumps fail due to loss of ATP? And would this extend the "three minutes" rule?

Do any factors alter the rate at which radioactive nuclides decay? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 09:38 AM PDT Do temperature, pressure or other conditions accelerate the rate of nuclear decay in a sample? [link] [comments] |
How is vocal pitch determined? Posted: 28 Jul 2018 01:59 PM PDT Is it genetic, environmental, a combination of the two? [link] [comments] |
