In today's article, we will dive again into the biochemical processes that occur during a process called cellular respiration or Glycolysis. Although we know that this topic will be of greater interest to high school graduates or students of biological and medical faculties, we also encourage others interested in the topic of our body. There... Continue reading
Today we will try to introduce you to one of them – replication. When thinking about genetics, most of us think of the DNA helix. Two lines spinning around each other creating a screw-like shape. However, although genetics is actually based on genetic material in the form of DNA, many different processes are involved. What... Continue reading
One of the most important skills for a cell is the ability to divide. We know two cell divisions - meiosis and mitosis. Today we will delve into the second one – mitosis. What is mitosis? Mitosis is the process by which one cell divides into two identical daughter cells. During this process, chromosomes are... Continue reading
Every year, high school graduates struggle with the decision of whether they should study medical analytics. They have to choose which field to choose and what profession they want to pursue in the future. High school graduates who took the Matura exam in natural science subjects, such as chemistry and biology, especially have a large... Continue reading
The pharmaceutical and biological medicines market is full of all kinds of medicines for most diseases. New OTC and generic medicines appear in pharmacies. However, in addition to the most well-known pharmaceuticals, doctors are increasingly using a relatively new creation in pharmacy - biological medicines. What are these medicines and what diseases do they treat?... Continue reading
There is information all around us about an increased number of cases of our pets getting sick, the Avian flu. Specialists tell us to keep an eye on our cats so that they do not leave the house to avoid contact with sick birds. Can this disease be transmitted to humans? And if so, how... Continue reading
With the ongoing summer period, many plants begin to bloom. Unfortunately, this process then involves the production of a large amount of pollen, which is then carried by bees to disseminate certain plant species. Why unfortunately? Many of us suffer from a condition called allergy, which is very often caused by contact with various types... Continue reading
What is malaria? Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease caused by parasites in the insects' bodies. It is a serious disease and sometimes fatal. The exact species of mosquito that is involved in the infection process is Anopheles. The disease begins with the bite of a mosquito carrier, which, together with a puncture of the skin,...

With the release of Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, the public became interested in the atomic bomb and radiation itself. Remembering the explosion in Hiroshima, we witnessed how a large influx of nuclear radiation affects the human body. Many of us also survived the explosion of the Chernobyl power plant, where a real threat of radiation sickness... Continue reading
Meeting with articles or scientific books related to biology, we often come across words such as meiosis and mitosis. Both, despite their mysterious name, play a very important role in the life of the cell. Unfortunately, we often confuse them due to similarities in the name and location of the action. Thanks to this article,... Continue reading
