BISC 3023: Evolutionary Biology 

Get insights into the role of lysosomes in different cell types. Find out which cell is the ideal choice for studying these powerful digestive organelles and why.

Explore the sensory marvels of the male silkworm moth known as Bombyx mori and how they detect specific chemical signals from females. Uncover a hypothesis about the unique sensitivity of the moth's antennae and a prediction stemming from it. Learn how to design an experiment to test this hypothesis and deepen your understanding of insect behavior.

Learn about the composition of arteries focusing on those closer to the heart. Understand the role of endothelium smooth muscle fibers elastic fibers and collagen in these arterial structures. Discover why arteries near the heart have a higher percentage of elastic fibers to withstand pressure changes effectively.

Discover the complex roles of osteogenic cells and their differentiation into bone-related cell types like osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and more. This video will also reveal the surprising origin of osteoclasts, setting them apart from their bone cell counterparts.

Explore the processes behind ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation. Learn the pivotal role of the proton gradient in energizing ATP synthase. Visualize the interplay of cellular components producing the ATP symphony.

Learn how bioremediation works to treat contaminated environments and how microbes can help clean up pollutants. We evaluate multiple scenarios zeroing in on oil-degrading bacteria as a prime example of the process.
