  3. Xylem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylem

    The first xylem to develop is called 'protoxylem'. In appearance, protoxylem is usually distinguished by narrower vessels formed of smaller cells. Some of these cells have walls that contain thickenings in the form of rings or helices. Functionally, protoxylem can extend: the cells can grow in size and develop while a stem or root is elongating.

  4. Protocell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocell

    Another group suggests that primitive cells might have formed inside inorganic clay microcompartments, which can provide an ideal container for the synthesis and compartmentalization of complex organic molecules. [68] Clay-armored bubbles form naturally when particles of montmorillonite clay collect on the outer surface of air bubbles under ...

  5. Centriole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centriole

    3D rendering of centrioles showing the triplets. In cell biology a centriole is a cylindrical organelle composed mainly of a protein called tubulin. [1] Centrioles are found in most eukaryotic cells, but are not present in conifers (), flowering plants (angiosperms) and most fungi, and are only present in the male gametes of charophytes, bryophytes, seedless vascular plants, cycads, and Ginkgo.

  6. Centrosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrosome

    The centrosome is copied only once per cell cycle, so that each daughter cell inherits one centrosome, containing two structures called centrioles. The centrosome replicates during the S phase of the cell cycle. During the prophase in the process of cell division called mitosis, the centrosomes migrate to opposite poles of the cell. The mitotic ...

  7. Star jelly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_jelly

    Observations made of star jelly in Scotland support the theory that one origin of star jelly is spawn jelly from frogs or toads, which has been vomited up by amphibian-eating creatures. [14] The German terms Sternenrotz (star snot) and Meteorgallerte (meteorite jelly) are known to refer to more or less digested frog spawn vomited by predators ...

  9. Convection cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_cell

    In this process the warm air is cooled; it gains density and falls towards the earth and the cell repeats the cycle. Convection cells can form in any fluid, including the Earth's atmosphere (where they are called Hadley cells ), boiling water, soup (where the cells can be identified by the particles they transport, such as grains of rice), the ...
