Scientists often invoke adaptations to a changing climate and environment to explain morphological changes such as bone size and shape in hominids.
Recently, it has become clear that hypergravity induces morphological changes such as inhibition of elongation growth and promotion of lateral growth.
Cancer is associated with specific cellular morphological changes, such as increased nuclear size and crowding from rapidly proliferating cells.
The process of apoptosis is characterized by several morphological changes such as membrane blebbing, chromatin condensation, and nuclear fragmentation.
Apoptotic cells appear green, and morphological changes such as cell blebbing and formation of apoptotic bodies will be observed [29].
As shown in the photographs (Fig. 8A), morphological changes, such as chromatin condensation, were seen in the nuclei of the apoptotic cells induced by evodiamine and EVO/HP-β-CD.
Here, we found that –P stress in rice is associated with several morphological changes such as brown coloration, roughening of the roots and a decreased ratio of shoot-to-root weight (Fig. 1).
Figure 7a, b clearly shows the morphological changes such as cancer cell membrane lyses, coiling with the addition of silver and nanosilver synthesized using Alternanthera sessilis in Fig. 4d, e after 48 h.
Generally, apoptosis of cells is a normal physiological process which plays a pivotal role on the development of tissue organisms, morphological changes such as cytoplasm shrinkage, chromatin condensation, DNA fragmentation, and apoptotic body formations.
The molecular processes influencing apoptotic morphological changes such as cell body shrinkage is another unsettled issue in apoptosis.
This regulation would involve both morphological changes, such as the induction of spines, and functional changes, such as the induction of glutamate receptor expression.
