  2. Golgi's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi's_method

    Golgi's method is a silver staining technique that is used to visualize nervous tissue under light microscopy. The method was discovered by Camillo Golgi , an Italian physician and scientist , who published the first picture made with the technique in 1873. [ 1 ]

  3. Camillo Golgi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camillo_Golgi

    Camillo Golgi (Italian: [kaˈmillo ˈɡɔldʒi]; 7 July 1843 – 21 January 1926) was an Italian biologist and pathologist known for his works on the central nervous system. He studied medicine at the University of Pavia (where he later spent most of his professional career) between 1860 and 1868 under the tutelage of Cesare Lombroso.

  4. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    Centrosome. Cell membrane. The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈɡɒldʒi /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  5. Golgi cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_cell

    The glomerulus is made up of the mossy fibre terminal, granule cell dendrites, and the Golgi terminal, and is enclosed by a glial coat. [3] The Golgi cell acts by altering the mossy fibre - granule cell synapse. According to reports, granule cells mostly connect to the Golgi cell through parallel fibers, while synapses may also play a role.

  6. Central dogma of molecular biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma_of_molecular...

    Central dogma of molecular biology. The central dogma of molecular biology deals with the flow of genetic information within a biological system. It is often stated as "DNA makes RNA, and RNA makes protein", [1] although this is not its original meaning. It was first stated by Francis Crick in 1957, [2][3] then published in 1958: [4][5]

  7. Symbiogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbiogenesis

    Symbiogenesis (endosymbiotic theory, or serial endosymbiotic theory[ 2 ]) is the leading evolutionary theory of the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotic organisms. [ 3 ] The theory holds that mitochondria, plastids such as chloroplasts, and possibly other organelles of eukaryotic cells are descended from formerly free-living prokaryotes ...

  8. Neuron doctrine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuron_doctrine

    Neuron theory is an example of consilience where low level theories are absorbed into higher level theories that explain the base data as part of higher order structure. As a result, the neuron doctrine has multiple elements, each of which were the subject of low level theories, debate, and primary data collection.

  9. Genetic engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_engineering

    e. Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification or genetic manipulation, is the modification and manipulation of an organism's genes using technology. It is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes within and across species boundaries to produce improved or novel organisms.
