BIOL 105: Plant Biology

Uncover the fascinating system that nourishes osteocytes in our bones: the osteocyte lacunar-canalicular network. Learn how canaliculi connect these mature bone cells to vital nutrients, ensuring their health even at significant distances from blood vessels.

Learn about the critical roles of the epiglottis and glottis in our respiratory and digestive systems. Understand how the epiglottis acts as a protective gate during swallowing, while the glottis facilitates sound production. Together, they ensure safe breathing and swallowing.

Discover the wonders of parthenogenesis a form of asexual reproduction in our latest educational video. Understand how an egg cell can develop into an embryo without fertilization. Learn the key differences between parthenogenesis and other forms of asexual reproduction like budding and sequential hermaphroditism.

Explore the intricate eukaryotic cell structure, from the protective plasma membrane to the vital organelles. Learn how DNA, ribosomes, and the cytoskeleton play pivotal roles in cellular function. Dive deep into the world of mitochondria, ER, and the Golgi apparatus.

Explore the lethal impact of cyanide on cellular organelles particularly its devastating effect on mitochondria. Our video sheds light on how cyanide halts ATP production bringing cellular functions to a standstill. Ideal for students and educators seeking a comprehensive view of toxicology and cellular biology.
