Film developing

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A piece of photographic film that has been exposed to light in a controlled manner must be developed before it can be used. Development does three things: it transform the latent image into a visible image that can be seen, it makes the visible image permanent and resistant to deterioration with time, and it renders the film insensitive to light. Photographic paper is developed in a similar manner, except it is not loaded into a reel or tank.

(This article does not discuss Polaroid film, which uses a self-contained developing process.)

The steps to Black and White negative film developing are as follows:

The film is now ready to be used in photographic printing.

Morphogenesis

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Morphogenesis (from the Greek morphê shape and genesis creation) describes the process of cellular differentiation, distribution and growth that takes place during the embryonic development of an organism, which gives rise to tissuess, organss and anatomy. The change from a cluster of nearly identical cellss to structured tissuess, specialized cells and organss is controlled by the genetic "program" and can be modified by environmental factors. The morphogenes (proteins that control morphogenesis) that determine the fate of cells are proteins that interact with DNA. They can either activate or deactivate genes that, in turn, can activate other genes (Fig. 1). The localized expression (production) of a protein results in a protein gradient. Above a threshold of concentration, the protein is active and works as a transcription factor. (A transcription factor regulates the amount of protein that is produced from a gene.)

The remainder of the article explains the morphogenesis of the species Drosophila melanogaster (the fruit fly). The development of Drosophila is particularly well studied, and it is typical for insects. Other multicellular organisms use similar mechanisms, although the details of the information transfer between the cells of the developing organism can differ from the one described here.

Figure 1 : Schematic drawing of transcription factor (or morphogene) gradients. The morphogenes (or transcription factors) displayed are the proteins bicoid (bicoid is a maternally transcribed gene that organizes the anterior development in Drosophila) and hunchback (hunchback is the 'partner' of bicoid in anterior/posterior development in Drosophila). These proteins play an important role in determining the anterior part of the body (head and thorax) from the posterior part (abdomen). (DNA/mRNA are striped, proteins are filled, respectively.)
(a) The bicoid mRNA (messenger RNA) is an intermediate copy of a piece of the DNA. It is transported to the ribosomes, where protein biosynthesis takes place) is located on the left side of the embryo. All cells of the embryo have inactive hunchback DNA.
(b) The bicoid mRNA is expressed as bicoid protein, resulting in a protein gradient with the highest concentration of protein on the left side of the embryo.
(c) The hunchback DNA is activated once the amount of bicoid protein passes a certain threshold. This results in a sharp borderline, which divides the part where hunchback is expressed from the part where hunchback is not expressed.

In the early stages of morphogenesis in an insect embryo, four types of differentiation can be distinguished:

In the later stages of development, these basic compartments become more and more divided. The same transcription factor can be used several times, having different meanings in the different body parts. Several morphogenes have been studied in Drosophila melanogaster, the fruit fly. In 1995, the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine was awarded for studies concerning the genetic control of early embryonic development to Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard, Edward B. Lewis and Eric Wieschaus. Their researches identified genetic screens and exemplified the role played in early embryological development by Hox genes. An example is the so-called antennapedia mutation. In Drosophila, antennae and legs are created by the same "program", they only differ in a single transcription factor. If this transcription factor is damaged, the fly grows legs instead of antennae. See images of this "antennapedia" mutant and others, at FlyBase.

The term morphogenesis can also be used to describe the development of unicellular life forms that do not have an embryonic stage in their life cycle, or to refer to the evolution of a body structure within a taxonomic group. Morphogenetic responses may be induced in organisms by hormones, or by environmental chemicals ranging from substances produced by other organisms to toxic chemicals or radionuclides released as pollutants.

I think the answer to that, Bob, depends on what our intelligence shows, in terms of how far along Saddam Hussein is in developing weapons of mass destruction.

John McCain

Saddam Hussein is developing weapons of mass destruction as quickly as he can. The Czech government has revealed meetings, contacts between Iraqi intelligence and Mohamed Atta. The evidence is very clear.

Rush Limbaugh

Fox News ace Carl Cameron reported last night that the Bush Administration is going to present Congress additional information on how dangerously close Saddam Hussein has come to developing and delivering a nuclear weapon.

Well, see, that's one area where I think clarification may be necessary. Our view is that it is appropriate to take a preemptive strike, if a country is developing weapons of mass destruction that may undermine our own national security.
