bipolar cell (medicine) and DNA replication (health)


bipolar cell (medicine)


bipolar cell
<cell biology, physiology> A class of retinal interneurons, named after their morphology, that receive input from the photoreceptors and send it to the ganglion cells.

Bipolar cells are nonspiking, their response to light is evenly graded and shows lateral inhibition.


DNA replication (health)


A wondrous complex process whereby the ("parent") strands of DNA in the double helix are separated and each one is copied to produce a new ("daughter") strand. This process is said to be "semi-conservative" since one of each parent strand is conserved and remains intact after replication has taken place.
