Geography examines the relations and interactions between humans and the environment. While geography was once focused on describing various places and objects, it now studies the forms and meanings that emerge from the relationships between environmental objects. Geography exists in the space between other fields that have "shared" the objects of nature and environment. It is concerned with the conditions of existence and unity of places, like mathematics examines the power that holds atomic nuclei together. Modern geography creates imagined maps and systems to frame ideas rather than describe physical spaces.

Arne Næss and the idea of an ontological thickness of the localAJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT :The urgency of the ecological crisis popularized since 1970 has been the occasion of a growing
interest in ontology. With the Norwegian philosopher Arne Næss, ontology will benefit from an epistemological
argumentation which constitutes the very crucible of his thought. From his point of view, ontology occupies a
central place in the resolution of the climatic phenomenon, since the destruction of nature that we are
experiencing in this century is the result of the deformation of our perception of the world and of ourselves in
her bosom. Hence an ontology defect. However, the place constitutes a dimension of the human. This article
questions the relevance of a thickness of the ontology of the local.

let's learn about dichotomy and dualism. Dichotomy is a division or contrast between two things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different. It can also mean repeated branching into two equal parts1. For example, there is often a dichotomy between what politicians say and what they do. Hello, this is Bing. Dualism has different meanings depending on the context. In general, it is the division of something conceptually into two opposed or contrasted aspects, or the state of being so divided1. For example, in philosophy, dualism is a theory that considers reality to consist of two irreducible elements or modes, such as mind and matter2. In religion, dualism is the belief in two supreme opposed powers or gods, or sets of divine or demonic beings, that caused the world to exist3.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .
Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

1. A Dialogue Between a Land and a Man
or
a Short Essay on Geography
Zigmas Kairaitis
One may call it a paradox that the oldest (fundamental) sciences, such as
philosophy, mathematics and geography, are still in the process of finding out
what they really are, i.e. their substance, identity, content.
The most typical case is philosophy – to the present day, the majority of
philosophical tracts and textbooks definitely contain a section or a topic
“What is Philosophy?”. Mathematics has no integral definition as well –
algebra and geometry just do not go together somehow... It may seem that the
answer to what is what should have already been found throughout the long
history of science.
We can only rely on the wisdom that as long as you search for the answer to
the question, who you really are, you can feel alive, and as soon as you find it
– you will face stagnation, resignation or death.
2. Geography as a narration or towards the classics
It is popular to relate the origin of science with particular dates and authors. In such
deliberations, the usual question is when the name, term or definition of the
respective science was used for the first time. Geography, for example, is associated
with the name of Eratosthenes, who was the first one to use the definition of
geography. It is clear, however, that geography has likely emerged when the person
assumed a “third position ”and tried to understand, evaluate and express the things
he/she sees around – objects, place(s), phenomena. Perhaps this was a field of
warlocks, shamans.
Today, we refer to the same objects as spaces, territories, regions, environments
formalised by various instruments and sophisticated forms of expression. The core,
however, remains the same: whether the plot of land is illustrated on a map,
presented as a text or a verbal telling depends only on a different form of language
expression.
Throughout its history, geography tried to distance itself from geographical or just a
simple telling of everything that can be seen, felt and conceived by a man who
observes the environment. It is still believed to diminish a scholar character of
geography. However, even the most abstract descriptions of the spaces of land
brought no victories to geography and remained rather as individual paradigms and
schools of theory.
Since the world has become mobile in all senses, once being the Greatest
Geographical Discoveries, narratives are now being replaced by smaller, individual
and personal geographical discoveries (we do not even want to put them in
quotation-marks), descriptions of travel impressions (travelogues). This geographical
phenomenon is yet to be examined and evaluated.
3. Geographers or at least teacher are well aware that the most difficult way to “see”
geography is to see it at a hand – in a view outside the window, in a yard, on a street,
in other words, in the closest environment. There is no doubt that geography covers
Africa, America, Oceania, all the unknown and unseen lands and countries. This
refers to the established tradition of geography.
When we start speaking about the spiritual, sensual as well as historical, cultural and
religious objects, we sort of “apologise” to geography as if it was out of its scope.
However, as it was demonstrated by the second half of the previous century,
geographers and others became interested in the subjects of sense and perception of
the geographical environment
This gave rise to the paradigms of geosophy (J. K. Wright) and topophilia (Yi-Fu
Tuan). At this point, it is necessary to mention the definition of phylotopia created
and interpreted from various points of view by philosopher Arvydas Šliogeris. The
connection between the Western and Eastern geography-related philosophical ideas
takes place in this field of thought.
Besides, Professor Arvydas Šliogeris is also attributed with the most reasoned concept
of the horizon as the location on this side of transcendence phenomenon. This could
be indicated as the start of horizon geography bringing the geography closer or
perhaps back to the point where the man and environment (place) get along together.
A man as homo horizontus
or
towards a sense and perception of place
4. Geography as a space between or from objects towards relations
The core of geography is more about the relations and interaction between us and creations of
the environment rather than the observed images of various places, objects, phenomena what
this science is mostly associated with. Geography is located in a space between.
The objects of nature, environment, public phenomena and processes as objects of research
have been “shared” between other sciences long time ago, i.e. geography, biology,
meteorology, physics as well as economics, political sciences, cultural and religious studies. In
this context, geography is closer to mathematics – it is more concerned about the forms,
meanings, values that start from the relations and interaction of the objects of environment (us
included), i.e. from the substantial space.
This conjunction gives rise to a new matter and energy, just like gluons (having no mass)
generate power that keeps the nucleus of the atom, the geography examines the conditions of
the existence (being) of the world, place, territory unity.
Thus, geography has entered the era of under-map (where the map is understood as a piece of
paper). It becomes more and more obvious that geographical discoveries are made with a help
of imagination – creation of images. The only difference is that while the previous aim was for
the images (maps) to meet the reality, they have become reality nowadays.
By making an allusion to Jean Baudrillard, the map appears before the territory or the maps of
the maps are made. GIS (geographical information systems) as well as mental maps are greatly
varying from the classical geographical maps. Their purpose is to frame an idea, visual,
theoretical construct instead of a physical space.
Thus, with regard to the question “what is geography” it may be defined as follows –
geography is a field of knowledge, which examines the interaction and relations between the
space-place and spacescape on Earth
