Lewis Thomas's "Lives of a Cell," for example, is a wonderfully readable classic.
A breast cancer cell, for example, can travel to the lymph nodes and then to the bones or liver.
Short-circuits between the two electrodes in a battery cell, for example, can heat up the electrodes.
A single actively replicating eukaryotic cell, for example, may contain as many as 10 million ribosomes.
A solar cell, for example, consists of a semiconductor junction that converts sunlight directly into electricity.
Zuker rejected this 'broad tuning' and assumed that the difference between a sweet and a bitter taste cell, for example, was the collection of receptors on its surface.
The hydrogen gas generated can then be collected and used as a fuel (in a fuel cell, for example).
The idea is to take a cell from an older woman -- a skin cell, for example -- and place it inside a younger woman's egg, which has had the original DNA removed.
Cloning is a specific scientific technique in which a living cell, for example a skin cell, is taken from one animal and its genetic material is inserted into a different animal's egg cell.
One approach to engineering biohydrogen production in bacteria is the production of non-native hydrogenase activity in a host cell, for example Escherichia coli.
The prior's cell, for example, has a huge library of medieval books, a dining room, a bedroom, an "audience chamber", and a stunning garden.
