Ultra Organised Cell Systems

6 PACK, PART OF MICROQUESTS SET

Do you realize there are about 100 trillion cells in your body? That's a lot of cells to manage! It's a good thing they are organized into systems that all work together. This book takes you on a journey inside your body to see many types of cells skin cells, blood cells, muscle cells, and more magnified hundreds or thousands of times larger than their actual size. You'll find out how groups of cells work together to keep your body running. Are you ready for this microquest?

MICROQUESTS TEACHING GUIDE

This book addresses the phenomenon of biological autoluminescence (also known as ultraweak photon emission, UPE, biochemiluminescence, or biophotons) and deals with a very broad spectrum of subjects, ranging from basic observational studies to molecular mechanisms, free-radical processes, physics of electron excitation and photon emission, as well as detection techniques. The chapter topics include UPE in plants, animals, and the human body; microorganisms and subcellular structures; and model systems, illustrating its high prevalence. Several sections of the book provide some backstory, with emphasis on methodology, unresolved questions, and existing controversies. The authors raise and discuss complex, potentially divisive aspects: Are there any reasons to assume the existence of non-chemical interaction in biological systems? Can research results in the field of mitogenetic radiation, delayed luminescence, and oxychemiluminescence of model systems, be correctly interpreted? What does the future hold for this area of research? Altogether, this publication gives the reader a thorough overview of biological autoluminescence (UPE, biophotonics) research, making it ideal for students and researchers who are new to the area as well as those who are specializing in it.

"In graphic novel format, follows the adventures of Max Axiom as he explains the science behind plant and animal cells"--Provided by publisher.

Bacteria and viruses are all around you. If they get inside your body, they can make you very sick. Fortunately, your body is built to keep illness-causing invaders out. If some do get in, special cells inside your body come to the rescue. They track down and destroy anything that might cause you harm. See how the daring cell defenders that make up your immune system keep you healthy. Are you ready for this microquest?
