CRISPR-Cas9 GENOME EDITING
We've explored a handful of biotechnology concepts in previous tutorials, but now it's time to introduce what is undoubtedly the most promising biotechnology technique of the last decade. The CRISPR-Cas9 system is a genome editing technology that has revolutionised molecular biology because of its precise and site-specific gene editing capabilities, which essentially allow an unprecedented level of control over the manipulation of a living organism's genetic information. How does it work mechanistically and what are its applications? Let's take a closer look, starting with some historical context. In 1987, Atsuo Nakata and his research team at Osaka University in Japan first reported the presence of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, or CRISPR, in the Escherichia coli genome. These are short, repeated sequences of DNA nucleotides found in the genomes of prokaryotes. These sequences are the same when read from 5' to 3' on one strand of DNA and from 5' to 3' on the complementary strand, and are therefore referred to as palindromic repeats, in the same way that we refer to words like racecar or kayak as palindromes because they are the same when read forward or backward. This was further reported in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as archaea, raising the obvious question of the relevance of CRISPR to these organisms, which drove research for some time. Later, in the mid-2000s, the functionality and importance of CRISPR was first realised in prokaryotes. It turns out that the CRISPR system is a key component of their adaptive immunity, which protects these prokaryotes from attack by viral DNA, bacteriophages and plasmids.

Mayans and Their Cultural Mysteries: Was the World Going to End in 2012?
Short Intro: The ancient Mayans were a remarkable civilization that lived in Mesoamerica, the region that stretches from Mexico to Central America. They are known for their advanced mathematical and astronomical knowledge, as well as their intricate art and architecture. But perhaps what intrigues people the most about the Mayans is their mysterious and complex culture, including their religion and the predictions of the end of the world.

NASA DISCOVERS NEW PLANET
scientists have developed a metric known as the Earth similarity index which measures the similarity of a planet or moon to earth based on various parameters such as temperature atmospheric pressure and habitability it ranges from 0.0 to 1 with 0.8 and 1 indicating that a planet is similar to Earth in every aspect in recent years advances in technology allowed us to uncover a multitude of exoplanets and moons with striking similarities to Earth one of them was found in 2019 and called Tea Garden B this is a super Earth orbiting an m-type star every 4.9 days at a distance of 0.0252 AU the Tea Garden star is one of the closest stars to our solar system located about 12.4 light years away from us and although the Red Dwarf is 10 times less massive than our sun and has a temperature of just about 2700 degrees Celsius it can still provide enough heat for its two planets the two exoplanets are similar to the inner planets in our solar system and are only slightly more massive than Earth both of them are situated in the habitable zone where liquid water can exist but tea garden B seems much more promising and here`s why Tea Garden B has been given a score of 0.95 ESI meaning it`s the most Earth-like planet discovered so far there`s a 60 probability that the exoplanet has a temperature surface environment with temperatures ranging from zero degrees to 50 degrees Celsius and if its atmosphere is comparable to Earth`s the surface temperature would likely be around 28 degrees Celsius Tea Garden sea however is farther from its star it has a 0.68 ESI score and only a three percent chance of having a warm surface temperature if this world`s atmosphere is more similar to that of Mars its estimated temperatures would be around -47 degrees Celsius researchers are not sure what the atmospheres of the two planets are but tea garden B and C are tidally locked to their star and a thin atmosphere could distribute heat and cold across the dark and light dividing line scientists estimate that atmospheres with densities between 1 3 to 17 times out of Earth`s could allow for liquid water to be present on the surface but that's not all there's a planetary system that offers some of the best candidates for extraterrestrial life and the discovery of its most promising candidate has just been announced the tli 700 planetary system is known to have at least four planets two of which are in the star's habitable zone the most promising are toi 700e and toi 700d both being Rocky and having similar masses to Earth toi 700e has an orbital period of 28 days and is 95 percent the size of Earth while toi 700d has an orbital period of 37 days and is 105 the size of Earth the toi 700 system has been around for more than 1.5 billion years giving more than enough time for biological activity to take hold and transform the thin region where the planet's surface meets its atmosphere into a rich biosphere if toi 700e and toi 700d have an atmosphere they would be much warmer than Earth's average temperature a potential Game Changer in terms of habitability scientists suspect that there could be more planets located Beyond toi 700d and if one day we were to discover life forms on any of these worlds we likely hope that they resemble those found here on Earth but is it theoretically possible that similar life forms could exist on other planets evolution is considered a universal law of nature just like gravity because of this the principles of evolution found on Earth can be applied to other planets due to the process called evolutionary convergence where unrelated species can evolve similar adaptations to similar environmental challenges the starting point of life on any Alien Planet must be simple and on many of them it could have remained like that but if some of these worlds develop complex forms of life it could have only

Is meat really unhealthy ?
When our vegetarian ancestors started eating meat around two million years ago, it wasn't just because animals taste good, it was out of necessity. Climate change made many of the plants our ancestors relied on less available, and meat filled the gap. At least since the discovery of fire, meat has been a staple of the human diet. But in recent years, eating meat has been increasingly associated with health risks such as heart disease, certain cancers and early death. So how unhealthy is meat really?

The Golden Ratio (Part 2)
The Golden Ratio: Fact or Fiction? The Golden Ratio, also known as the divine proportion or phi, is a mathematical concept that has fascinated people for centuries. It is a number that appears in many different areas of science and art, from architecture and music to biology and nature. Some people believe that the Golden Ratio is the key to understanding the universe, while others think that it is simply a myth or a product of our pattern-seeking brains. In this article, we will explore the evidence for and against the existence of the Golden Ratio in nature.

The Art of Reading
Introduction In this essay, we will delve into the mysterious and fascinating world of reading. At first glance, reading seems to be a straightforward process. We look at letters on a page or screen, and we instantly recognize them as words. But what is actually happening in our brains when we read? How are we able to process complex ideas and emotions from a string of letters and words?

The Physiology of Things
Even if you put every human alive today into the Grand Canyon, we still couldn't fill it. We were only able to construct a pile in a very small section of the canyon. All of us—all 7.159 billion of us—are represented there. This also puts humanity into perspective. Humans spit up roughly one to two liters every day, so over the course of a lifetime, you won't create enough saliva to fill an Olympic-sized pool all at once. The entire amount of sand grains on Earth is thought to be 7.5 x 10 to the 18th, while 560 billion Lego parts have already been produced.
