Use the information on "origins" to construct a "family tree" for the various types of blood cells. ... Start with pluripotent stem cells, and show how the cells derived from them differentiate into the seven types of fully functional blood cells mentioned in the article.

Hearing, Hair Cells and the Cytoskeleton ... Each has its own actin binding proteins associated within it (Drenckhahn et al, 1991). The stereocilia are microvillar -like projections supported by bundled actin filaments all with the same polarity, with their barbed ends at the tip and their pointed ends towards the cell body.

How Pain Nerve Cells Act When They Are In Pain ... A battery is really nothing more than a chemical container with negative and positive ends. When electrons flow from where there is an excess to where there is a deficit, that flow of electrons gives power. Sometimes the flow is of particles much bigger than electrons,

They can form muscle cells, nerve cells, and many other cell types. Although spontaneous differentiation is a good indication that a culture of embryonic stem cells is healthy, it is not an efficient way to produce cultures of specific cell types.

Therefore, neurotransmitters make possible the nerve impulses of one cell influence the nerve impulses of another, thus allowing brain cells to "talk to each other", ... When a nerve signal, or impulse, reaches the ends of its axon, it has traveled as an action potential, or a pulse of electricity. However, there is no...

Nerve cells have evolved a specialized axonal transport process to facilitate the physical movment of cell products to the terminal (anterograde transport).

When nondifferentiated PC12 cells are grown in the absence of nerve growth factor (NGF)-free culture medium (CM) (see MATERIALS AND METHODS), they seem fibroblastic in shape due to the presence of a few short cytoplasmic processes (Figure 1a).

THE NERVOUS SYSTEM:  Nerve Cells and Electrical Signaling ... The axon extends for anywhere from a few micrometers to a couple of meters where it branches considerably. At the ends of these branches, the axon becomes swollen. These swellings contain small sacks, made of bilipid membrane, that contain high concentrations...
