[HTML][HTML] DNA damage—how and why we age?
Aging is a complex process that results in loss of the ability to reattain homeostasis following
stress, leading, thereby, to increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Many factors contribute …

H2S‐tolerant Fish Differentially Express Genes and Modify Mitochondrial Function to Maintain H2S Homeostasis
Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is a toxic gas that inhibits the final step in the mitochondrial electron
transport chain. This gas, however, is produced endogenously at low levels to promote …

What's in the Water: Why Lakes exhibit decreased dissolved oxygen concentrations due to Eutrophication.
K Dixon, C Ayisi, C Henpita - Journal of …, 2015 - undergradsciencejournals.okstate …
Eutrophication can be best described as the enrichment of an ecosystem with chemical
nutrients, typically compounds containing nitrogen, phosphorus, or both (Correll 1995). When …
