What is acne?

Eels are fish. Like all fish, they have a backbone, live in water and breathe with gills. They are cold-blooded, which means that their body temperature changes depending on the temperature of the environment. Most eels live in the seas. Some species live in fresh water most of their lives, but they also spend part of it in salt water. All eels spawn only in salt water.

North American freshwater eels. They live in lakes, ponds, rivers, from the Atlantic to the Mississippi River. Sea eels, moray eels, live only in salt water, and can be found along the mountainous coast of southern California, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Atlantic coast of the United States.

Eels have a varied diet, including dead fish and small living organisms. They lead a nocturnal lifestyle. Sometimes young eels can be found in the shallow waters of the seas and in the evening. Disturbed, they quickly burrow into the sand. The skin of eels is smooth and slippery. Some freshwater and other types of eels have scales on their skin. Freshwater eels move long distances to the sea to spawn there, although they live in fresh water.

Eels travel from fresh water to seas and oceans and back without harm to life. Biologists explain this by the fact that the mucous membrane of the body protects them from damage. Freshwater eels, moray eels and some other species have an amazing ability to recover from injuries that would lead other fish to death. The substance in the blood of acne prevents the penetration of infection.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

WQHD screens with In-cell Touch technology 15.03.2015

Japan Display announced that it was the first to mass-produce WQHD displays using In-cell Touch technology.

The In-cell Touch system places touch sensors directly below the screen surface, eliminating the need for a separate panel and reducing the thickness of the display module.

In the case of Japan Display's new screens, a proprietary implementation of In-cell Touch technology called Pixel Eyes is used. Touches are determined by the change in capacitance between the electrodes on the TFT substrate and the color filter substrate. You can interact with the screens of Pixel Eyes with your fingers and with the stylus.

Japan Display panels are larger than 5 inches diagonally and have a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels (pixel density exceeds 500 ppi). Brightness is 500 cd/m2, typical contrast ratio is 1500:1. The viewing angle exceeds 160 degrees; provides 85% coverage of the NTSC color space.

Displays will find application in high-end smartphones. Such devices should appear on the market this year.
