On International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we celebrate the remarkable achievements of women in various scientific fields. This global initiative underscores the importance of gender equality in science and inspires young girls to explore scientific careers. From groundbreaking discoveries to innovative research, women continue to shape the scientific landscape. Let's break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create an inclusive environment where women's contributions to science are recognized and celebrated daily.

Have you ever think about how our lungs 🫁 expand and constrict. When we breath in oxygen, our lungs expand to allow the accumulation of sufficient oxygen and that process is INHALATION.

On the opposite, our lungs also constrict to allow the remover of Carbon dioxide and that process is known as EXHALATION.

Inhalation and Exhalation is the basis behind the rise and fall of our thoracic cavity (chest) with the aid of those external intercostal muscles and diaphragm. keep following Biomedical Sciences.

LDL stands for Low-Density Lipoprotein, which is a type of cholesterol in the body. It's often referred to as "bad" cholesterol because high levels of LDL cholesterol can increase the risk of heart disease and other cardiovascular problems. It's important to maintain healthy levels of LDL cholesterol through diet, exercise, and, if necessary, medication prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Simple steps but complex process, the cell division.

Mitosis is a process of cell division that ensures the replication and distribution of genetic material to daughter cells. It occurs in somatic (body) cells and is responsible for growth, development, tissue repair, and the maintenance of multicellular organisms. Mitosis has four main phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms. It involves two consecutive divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II, which result in the production of four haploid daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. This genetic diversity is crucial for sexual reproduction. Meiosis consists of the following phases:
