Al proceso llamado parada proliferativa en las plantas también podría llamarse menopausia vegetal
MEC. Gisela Aguilar Martinez En las plantas como un único episodio reproductivo, llamadas monocárpicas, el inicio de la reproducción está determinado por la formación de las primeras flores. Los factores que controlan ese proceso (como la luz, los cambios estacionales, la temperatura o la edad de la planta), están muy estudiados, pero poco se sabe […]
La amenaza silenciosa de las bacterias multirresistentes: matan 20 veces más que los accidentes de tráfico
MEC Gisela Aguilar Martínez En estudios resientes se ha revelado el preocupante aumento de muertes causadas por bacterias resistentes a los antibióticos, lo que lo covierte en una de las 10 amenazas más graves para la salud pública a nivel global, según la OMS. A estas bacterias se les llaman las bacterias multirresistentes (BMR) y […]
Quantum 101 Episode 5: Quantum Entanglement Explained
Quantum entanglement is one of the most intriguing and perplexing phenomena in quantum physics. It allows physicists to create connections between particles that seem to violate our understanding of space and time. This video discusses what quantum entanglement really is, and the experiments that help us understand it. The results of these experiments have applications […]
Quantum Entanglement: Explained in REALLY SIMPLE Words
Quantum entanglement is a physical resource, such as energy, that is possible between quantum systems. When a coin rotates on a flat surface, it is in a state of superposition between its two faces, heads and tails. Similarly, electrons in their natural state exist as a superposition of spin up and spin down. Only when […]
Have we found parallel universe? | Evidence for Parallel and Multiverse
Parallel universes are no longer just a feature of a good sci-fi story. There are now some scientific theories that support the idea of parallel universes beyond our own. However, the multiverse theory remains one of the most controversial theories in science. Here we are going talk about different theories supporting the concept of Parallel […]
If light has no mass, why is it affected by gravity? General Relativity Theory
General relativity, part of the wide-ranging physical theory of relativity formed by the German-born physicist Albert Einstein. It was conceived by Einstein in 1915. It explains gravity based on the way space can ‘curve’, or, to put it more accurately, it associates the force of gravity with the changing geometry of space-time. ( Einstein’s gravity) […]
Do those dog speech buttons actually work?
Some dog owners believe their pup can “speak” to them by using paw-friendly buttons that say prerecorded words. On social media, some of these “button dogs” seem to be doing surprisingly intelligent things, like combining two words to create a unique meaning: “squeaker” + “car” = ambulance. But can dogs really use language in this […]
