💁🏻♀️ ICYMI: 🪼🔄 Host Esther Ikoro explains how the immortal #jellyfish resets its life cycle.
When stressed or damaged, Turritopsis dohrnii turns its adult #medusa body back into a #polyp colony through a cellular process called #transdifferentiation.

#panopticon n.
A hypothetical #prison proposed by Jeremy #Bentham, having circular tiers of #cells surrounding a central observation tower.
A building, as a prison or library, so arranged that all parts of the interior are visible from a single point.

This what the current #Briitish #government has indicated it wants for our country.

Biophotons, also known as ultraweak photon emissions, stem from metabolic processes inside cells, typically in their mitochondria. Researchers are studying them in the hope that they will be useful as subtle markers of disease or health, or could even represent a new signalling mechanism in cells.

The mechanism is unlike anything seen in any other #mammal, which explains why about 80% of orange cats are male: the mutation is on the X chromosome. The #study traces the #mutation back to #medieval times, when calico cats appeared in 12th-century #paintings.

Left unrepaired, this damage can lead to cell death or genetic mutations that drive #cancer. To fix it accurately, specialized repair proteins use a process called homologous recombination.
