A calcium–aluminium-rich inclusion or Ca–Al-rich inclusion (CAI) is a submillimeter- to centimeter-sized light-colored calcium- and aluminium-rich inclusion found in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. The four CAIs that have been dated using the Pb-Pb chronometer yield a weighted mean age of 4567.30 ± 0.16 Myr.
Colombia is one of seventeen megadiverse countries in the world. [7] The country in northwestern South America contains 311 types of coastal and continental ecosystems. [1] As of the beginning of 2021, a total of between 63,000 and 71,000 species are registered in the country, [8] [5] with 8803 endemic species, representing near the 14% of the total registered species.

The National Biodiversity Pavilion (in spanish Pabellón Nacional de la Biodiversidad of the National Autonomous University of Mexico) is a Mexico's museum oriented towards showing the national biodiversity in Mexico. It was opened in 2021 at the Ciudad Universitaria in Mexico City.
According to estimates by Mora et al. (2011), there are approximately 8.7 million terrestrial species and 2.2 million oceanic species. The authors note that these estimates are strongest for eukaryotic organisms and likely represent the lower bound of prokaryote diversity. [18] Other estimates include:
The Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad (INBio) is the national institute for biodiversity and conservation in Costa Rica. Created at the end of the 1980s, and despite having national status, it is a privately run institution that works closely with various government agencies, universities, business sector and other public and private entities ...
California's high mountains block most moisture from reaching the eastern parts of the state, which are home to California's desert and xeric shrub ecoregions. The low desert of southeastern California is part of the Sonoran Desert ecoregion, which extends into Arizona and parts of northern Mexico. [2]
Inclusion (mineral), any material that is trapped inside a mineral during its formation; Inclusion bodies, aggregates of stainable substances in biological cells; Inclusion (cell), insoluble non-living substance suspended in a cell's cytoplasm; Inclusion (taxonomy), combining of biological species; Include directive, in computer programming
Inclusion bodies have a non-unit (single) lipid membrane [citation needed].Protein inclusion bodies are classically thought to contain misfolded protein.However, this has been contested, as green fluorescent protein will sometimes fluoresce in inclusion bodies, which indicates some resemblance of the native structure and researchers have recovered folded protein from inclusion bodies.
