Chromosome- Definition, Organisations, Structure, Disorders

Introduction: Chromosomes are thread-like structures that are found in the nucleus of both animal and plant cells. Each cell’s nucleus contains chromosomes that bundle the DNA molecule. DNA, a type of nucleic acid, is tightly wrapped around proteins called histones that stabilize the organization of each chromosome. History: In the late 1800s, scientists using a […]

Noncommunicable disorders (NCDs) that worsen clinical outcomes in Dengue patients include diabetes, renal failure, and hypertension

Leave a Comment / BIOCHEMISTRY, BLOG, MICROBIOLOGY / sciencevivid

Introduction: Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease that has rapidly spread in many countries worldwide in recent years. Endemic across most provinces, dengue incidence has increased in recent years largely due to the expansion of the vector Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, as well as the movement of people and the introduction of imported cases

Glycolysis- Occurrence, Stages, Regulations, Significance

Leave a Comment / BIOCHEMISTRY / sciencevivid

Introduction: Glycolysis is a cytoplasmic pathway of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that breaks down glucose into two three-carbon compounds and generates energy. It is also named as Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway. Glycolysis is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism. Nearly all living organisms carry out glycolysis as part of

High altitude adaptations in Sherpa community of Nepal

Leave a Comment / BLOG, MOLECULAR BIOLOGY / sciencevivid

Background: Nepal has an incredible geographic diversity with an altitude ranging from 50m to highest peak in the world (Mt. Everest, 8848m) from sea level and is topographically divided into three regions: The Terai, the Hilly and the Himalayan regions. The Himalaya and its foothills make up the northern border of the country and represent
