Gut microbiome growth and variation are dependent on the prebiotics. In other words, prebiotics' ruffages and natural sugars accelerate the gut's beneficial bacteria. Prebiotics can modify the composition of the microbiome in the gastrointestinal system, which is the most typical example. Whole grains, garlic, onions, soybeans, greens,..." current

Sometimes, the words polymer and macromolecule are used interchangeably. The number of monomer units is undefined in polymers, and with a high number of monomers, polymers are often called high polymers. The long-chain nature of polymers is responsible for their characteristic property and makes..." current

The term pheromone came from the Ancient Greek (Phero), meaning 'to bear', and (hormone), meaning 'stimulating'. It means it can change the behavior of members of the same species when the next one can detect them. In the general sense, a pheromone is a regulatory substance that incites its target to respond or act. In humans and other animals, hormones are produc..." current

Parturition encompasses a complex series of physiological actions that necessitate the fetus to rotate into its birth position, followed by a series of endocrine changes that end with successful delivery. The stages of parturition and their duration: There are three main stages of parturition. The first phase of parturition begins with the commencement of labor. This endures until the ce..." current

A specific area ofthe brain, called substantia nigra, harbors the dopamine-producing ('dopaminergic') neurons; in PD, these neuronal cells become affected. When dopaminergic neuronal cell death occurs or becomes damaged, they produce less amount of dopamine; as a result, it causes movement problems in PD patients. The researchers still do not know the dopamine-producing cells death causing factors. Lewy b..." current

Although paresis affects our muscles, it usually occurs due to nerve damage. Paresis is one of the upper motor neuron syndrome symptoms, which is developed due to a graded weakness of movement that differs from the complete loss of muscle activity caused by paralysis (eg, plegia). It is usually developed by various diseases and injuries that lead to m..." current

The animal they depend upon is called ‘host’. Parasites benefit from the host by the shelter, locomotion, nutrients, etc. The most common parasite people encounter is an ectoparasite known as head lice (''Pediculus humanus''). Common endoparasites among children are pinworms (''Enterobius vermicularis''), large roundworms (''Ascaris lumbricoides''), etc. Parasitism is a common phen..." current
