Cat Fight:

🐱3 coyotes fail to impress unfazed cat #Max in this showdown

🐱Brave feline is being praised for his fearlessness after he fought off a trio of vicious coyotes that were trying to attack him in his own backyard

🐱The undercat comes out on top

🐱Standing his ground

Bald Eagle Sounds:

🦅A mighty #symbol, with a not-so-mighty voice

🦅For such a #powerful bird, the bald eagle emits surprisingly weak-sounding calls

🦅These sounds are so unimpressive that Hollywood sound editors often dub over bald eagle calls with far more impressive #sounds

Bitten Off More Than You Can Chew:

🐟Many birds eat #fish by swallowing them whole

🐟Usually, birds will manipulate the fish to position the prey’s head to face its throat

🐟Swallowing head-first eases ingestion and prevents sharp fins or spines from being caught in the throat

Glow With The Floe:

🧊Ice hummocks

🧊Lake Baikal

🧊World’s biggest and oldest lake

🧊Holds 1/5 of the world’s fresh water

🧊Siberian #winds howl across the surface, temperature and pressure differences in the ice cause cracks, movement causes slabs to stick out above surface

Mount Fuji:

🌋Tallest mountain in Japan, standing at 12,380 feet

🌋An active #volcano, sitting on a triple junction of tectonic activity

▪️Amurian plate (associated with the Eurasian tectonic plate)

▪️Okhotsk plate (associated with the North American plate)

▪️Filipino plate

Significant Horror:

🎃Roses are red

🎃Violets are blue

🎃If you were a null hypothesis

🎃I would fail to reject you

Because our genome is so amazing, we can set Poisson significance thresholds at p<0.001 for genomic analyses

Removing A Blood #Clot From The #Brain:

🧠The wire pokes through the obstructing blood clot as a guide for the catheter

🧠The wire is retracted and replaced by the clot-removing device

🧠The catheter is pulled back, allowing the spring-loaded device to open and snatch the clot

#Metastatic Cancer:

🧬Cancer that spreads from its site of origin to another part of the body

🧬There is NOT a specific DNA mutation or set of DNA mutations that only appear in #metastasized cancer cells versus #primary cancer cells (not metastasized)

Scientific #Literacy Matters:

🧠Scientific literacy is an intellectual #vaccine against the claims of charlatans who would exploit ignorance

🧠A baloney detection kit

🧠Logical thinking, quantitative analysis, deductive reasoning, proper questioning, reliance on sound evidence

Lytic Vs Lysogenic:

🦠Disruption of repressor gene made phage reproduce via lytic cycle (death of bacteria by cell lysis) vs lysogenic/temperate cycle

🦠See both cycles

▪️Green=lytic cycle
(→cell lysis/burst)

▪️Red=lysogenic cycle
(→cell division)
