Supermicelles are formed via bottom-up chemical approaches, such as self-assembly of long cylindrical micelles into radial cross-, star- or dandelion-like patterns in a specially selected solvent; solid nanoparticles may be added to the solution to act as nucleation centers and form the central core of the supermicelle.

Part of the protective function of a rosette like the dandelion is that it is hard to pull from the ground; the leaves come away easily while the taproot is left intact. Another kind of protection is provided by the caulescent rosette , which is part of the growth form of the giant herb genus Espeletia in South America, which has a well ...
Taraxacum officinale, the dandelion or common dandelion, [6] is a herbaceous perennial flowering plant in the daisy family, Asteraceae. The common dandelion is well known for its yellow flower heads that turn into round balls of many silver-tufted fruits that disperse in the wind. These balls are called "clocks" in both British and American ...
The patterns of seed dispersal are determined in large part by the specific dispersal mechanism, and this has important implications for the demographic and genetic structure of plant populations, as well as migration patterns and species interactions. There are five main modes of seed dispersal: gravity, wind, ballistic, water, and by animals.
The woman managed to free herself and called the police. She was unharmed but told officers Godoy’s comments had made her fear for her life. “Obviously she was terrified,” Alexander said.
Peloria or a peloric flower is the aberration in which a plant that normally produces zygomorphic flowers produces actinomorphic flowers instead. This aberration can be developmental, or it can have a genetic basis: the CYCLOIDEA gene controls floral symmetry. Peloric Antirrhinum plants have been produced by knocking out this gene. [5]
Plate of sauteed dandelion greens, with Wehani rice. Raw dandelion greens contain high amounts of vitamins A, C, and K, and are moderate sources of calcium, potassium, iron, and manganese. [48] Raw dandelion greens are 86% water, 9% carbohydrates, 3% protein, and 1% fat. [48] A 100 gram (3 + 1 ⁄ 2 oz) reference amount supplies 45 Calories. [48]
