The most dominant and popular theory for the origin of the moon is the giant impact hypothesis says that it is formed from the debris left after the collision of the earth and Theia a Mars-sized body.

Telescopes are tools engineered for collecting light from any part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Scientists estimated that the age of the whole universe to be nearly 14 billion years with the help of Hubble's pictures and pictures from the Probe of Wilkinson

Allisa [31]
This has to do with SURFACE TO VOLUME RATIO. For a typical small cell, its surface area to the volume ratio get smaller as the cell grows. This implies that, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, then the amount of nutrients that entered the cell will be limited, that is , nutrients will not be able to migrate into the cell as needed. To avoid this, the cell has to divide to reduce its surface to volume ratio.<span />

You have a cup of vegetable oil and a vial full of normal phospholipids. What would you predict would happen if you dropped the
Jobisdone [24]

The vegetable oil is made up of chains of long fatty acids. These long chains of fatty acids are non-polar in nature, i.e, they do not interact through ionic forces rather by covalent forces. The phospholipids are also long chain fatty acids with an ionic head. The mixing of the vial of phospholipid in vegatable oil will lead to the formation of a micelle where the lipophilic ends of the phospholipid will be on the outside and the lipophobic end will be towards the centre of the micelle.
