The plasma membrane being semipermeable in nature allows certain solutes to pass through while denies the passage for some others.
Here is list of various fields of biology and scientists who are regarded as father or founder of each of the field.
The information stored in the DNA is decoded by the process of transcription and translation and results in the formation of the polypeptide chain or the protein, a very important and essential biomolecule in any living organism. This video provides a broad and clear picture of the process of gene expression with the help of…
