    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directionality_(molecular...

    For example, in a typical gene a start codon (5′-ATG-3′) is a DNA sequence within the sense strand. Transcription begins at an upstream site (relative to the sense strand), and as it proceeds through the region it copies the 3′-TAC-5′ from the template strand to produce 5′-AUG-3′ within a messenger RNA (mRNA).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbiogenesis

    After the early prokaryote was consumed by a proto-eukaryote, the prokaryote would have continued to produce vesicles that accumulated within the cell. [41] Interaction of internal components of vesicles may have led to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus , both being parts of the endomembrane system.

    [1] The other division of the circulatory system is the systemic circulation that begins with receiving the oxygenated blood from the pulmonary circulation into the left atrium. From the atrium the oxygenated blood enters the left ventricle where it is pumped out to the rest of the body, returning as deoxygenated blood back to the pulmonary ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outgroup_(cladistics)

    A simple cladogram showing the evolutionary relationships between four species: A, B, C, and D. Here, Species A is the outgroup, and Species B, C, and D form the ingroup. In cladistics or phylogenetics, an outgroup [1] is a more distantly related group of organisms that serves as a reference group when determining the evolutionary relationships of the ingroup, the set of organisms under study ...

  7. Supergroup (biology) - Wikipedia

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

    A supergroup, in evolutionary biology, is a large group of organisms that share one common ancestor and have important defining characteristics. It is an informal, mostly arbitrary rank in biological taxonomy that is often greater than phylum or kingdom, although some supergroups are also treated as phyla. [1]

    Drawing up a comprehensive list of words in English is important as a reference when learning a language as it will show the equivalent words you need to learn in the other language to achieve fluency.

  9. Exoplanet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exoplanet

    About 1 in 5 Sun-like stars [a] have an "Earth-sized" [b] planet in the habitable zone. [ 112 ] Most known exoplanets orbit stars roughly similar to the Sun , i.e. main-sequence stars of spectral categories F, G, or K. Lower-mass stars ( red dwarfs , of spectral category M) are less likely to have planets massive enough to be detected by the ...
