  2. Cryopreservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryopreservation

    As an example, the number of live births from frozen embryos 'slow frozen' is estimated at some 300,000 to 400,000 or 20% of the estimated 3 million in vitro fertilization (IVF) births. [ 19 ] Lethal intracellular freezing can be avoided if cooling is slow enough to permit sufficient water to leave the cell during progressive freezing of the ...

  3. Water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle

    The ocean plays a key role in the water cycle as it is the source of 86% of global evaporation. [2] The water cycle involves the exchange of energy, which leads to temperature changes. When water evaporates, it takes up energy from its surroundings and cools the environment. When it condenses, it releases energy and warms the environment.

  4. Marine biogeochemical cycles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biogeochemical_cycles

    Since liquid water flows, ocean waters cycle and flow in currents around the world. Since water easily changes phase, it can be carried into the atmosphere as water vapour or frozen as an iceberg. It can then precipitate or melt to become liquid water again. All marine life is immersed in water, the matrix and womb of life itself. [7]

    Additionally, she reminds potential patients that the frozen eggs have to undergo many steps to result in a live birth, from thawing, fertilization and embryo growth, to transfer, implantation and ...

    Fish populations are rapidly declining due to overfishing and climate change, but scientists think certain species can be saved by cryopreserving embryos. How to freeze the decline of Earth's ...

    When a frozen embryo is warmed for implantation, there is about a 95% survival rate — meaning 5% won’t make it, Feinberg said. Most patients will need at least two or three transfers before ...

  8. Oocyte cryopreservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oocyte_cryopreservation

    The eggs are immediately frozen. [5] The egg is the largest cell in the human body and contains a large amount of water. When the egg is frozen, the ice crystals that form can destroy the integrity of the cell. To prevent this, the egg must be dehydrated before freezing.

  9. Embryo cryopreservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_cryopreservation

    In current state of the art, early embryos having undergone cryopreservation implant at the same rate as equivalent fresh counterparts. [2] The outcome from using cryopreserved embryos has uniformly been positive with no increase in birth defects or development abnormalities, [3] [8] also between fresh versus frozen eggs used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
