Mesmerizing Molecular Machines
One of the most amazing things one can learn about in biology are molecular machines. Every time I read about them or see an animation of one, their design blows me away. In the cell there are many tasks that need to be done, molecular machines come to the rescue. These tiny machines do every […]
Elegant Design In A Cell
In freshman year high school biology, students learn the amazing complexities of the cell. For example, we have been told for years of the cells amazing four letter alphabet that makes up the genome. This alphabet sequences specifies information for building cells. Of course, we know that information always comes from a mind, at least […]
