  2. Visual cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_cortex

    In terms of anatomy, V2 is split into four quadrants, a dorsal and ventral representation in the left and the right hemispheres. Together, these four regions provide a complete map of the visual world. V2 has many properties in common with V1: Cells are tuned to simple properties such as orientation, spatial frequency, and color.

  3. WI-38 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WI-38

    The WI-38 cell line stemmed from earlier work by Hayflick growing human cell cultures. [2]In the early 1960s, Hayflick and his colleague Paul Moorhead at the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania discovered that when normal human cells were stored in a freezer, the cells remembered the doubling level at which they were stored and, when reconstituted, began to divide from that level to ...

  4. Hayflick limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayflick_limit

    As the cell divides, the telomeres on the ends of chromosomes shorten. The Hayflick limit is the limit on cell replication imposed by the shortening of telomeres with each division. This end stage is known as cellular senescence. The Hayflick limit has been found to correlate with the length of the telomeric region at the end of chromosomes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Small_Bodies

    Two Small Bodies is a 1993 thriller directed by Beth B and starring Fred Ward and Suzy Amis. [1] [2] The film is based on the 1977 American stage play Two Small Bodies by Neal Bell. [3] The film was screened at the 1994 Sundance Film Festival. [4]

  6. Cell-based vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell-based_vaccine

    To produce viral vaccines, candidate vaccine viruses are grown in mammalian, avian or insect tissue culture of cells with a finite lifespan. [5] These cells are typically Madin-Darby Canine Kidney cells, [6] but others are also used including monkey cell lines pMK and Vero and human cell lines HEK 293, MRC 5, Per.C6, PMK, and WI-38. [7]

  7. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    The terminal cell elongates more than the deeper cells; then the production of a lateral bisector takes place in the inner fluid, which tends to divide the cell into two parts, of which the deeper one remains stationary, while the terminal part elongates again, forms a new inner partition, and so on.

  8. Fission (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fission_(biology)

    Fission, in biology, is the division of a single entity into two or more parts and the regeneration of those parts to separate entities resembling the original. The object experiencing fission is usually a cell, but the term may also refer to how organisms, bodies, populations, or species split into discrete parts.

  9. Block cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cellular_automaton

    A block cellular automaton consists of the following components: [1] [2] A regular lattice of cells; A finite set of the states that each cell may be in; A partition of the cells into a uniform tessellation in which each tile of the partition has the same size and shape
