Unlike Tesla and Marconi, Bose did not apply for a patent for his invention until 1901, and was awarded a patent in 1904.

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that can carry information in the form of pictures, sound and other details.", "Around the turn of the 20th century Guglielmo Marconi, developed the first apparatus for long distance radio communication. Reginald A. Fessenden became the first to send audio (wireless telephony) by means of electromagnetic waves in 1907. By 1910 these systems had come to be referred to by the common name radio. Marconi's demonstrations of the use of radio for wireless communications, equipping ships with life saving wireless communications, establishing the first transatlantic radio service, and building the first stations for the British shortwave service, have marked his place in history.", "The story of the radio invention is very interesting. It all began in 1878, when David E. Hughes discovered that he could actually hear sparks in a receiver of the telephone. He discovered this while he was working on his experiment with a microphone. After more work on this, he managed to detect very distant signals. When was the radio invented and by whom? We use this word on daily basis; everyone knows what the radio is and what it is used for.

Only those that received the recessive allele from both parents, known as zygosity, will have the recessive phenotype.

what does a vacuole do in a plant cell

[ "Plant cells tend to have one large central vacuole which stores food (sugar and salts in solution) and water. The storage of water helps to support the plant. Absorbing more water makes a vacuole bigger which helps a plant to grow. Animal cell vacuoles are much smaller than their plant cell counterparts and in animal cells their roles are more subservient. They assist in expelling proteins and lipids from the cell. The process is known as exocytosis and the role of the vacuole here is to store the molecules and facilitate their transport." ]

Spondylolysis is a defect of the lumbar vertebra in the spinal column. The lumbar vertebra consist of a body, pedicle, lamina, pars interarticularis, transverse process, spinous process and superior articular facets, which form joints that link the vertebrae together.", "Background.

Roughly translated, that means the part between two joints.. A defect in the pars is a break in this portion of bone. This break leads to a separation of the upper, front portion of the vertebra from its lower, back portion. This condition is a precursor to another condition called spondylolisthesis, a word that refers to the slipping of a vertebra", "Lumbar spondylolysis, a unilateral or bilateral stress fracture of the narrow bridge between the upper and lower pars interarticularis, is a common cause of low back pain (LBP) in adolescent athletes.

Botulism food poisoning occurs when a toxin produced by the bacteria is consumed in improperly preserved foods. The disease is caused by a potent neurotoxin produced by the bacteria. It manifests as abdominal cramping, double or blurred vision, difficulty breathing, muscle weakness, and other serious symptoms. Botulism is not spread from person to person.

[ "The large, hollow organs of the digestive tract contain a layer of muscle that enables their walls to move. The movement of organ walls can propel food and liquid through the system and also can mix the contents within each organ. Food moves from one organ to the next through muscle action called peristalsis. Digestion involves mixing food with digestive juices, moving it through the digestive tract, and breaking down large molecules of food into smaller molecules.

You also run the risk of a passenger in a vehicle opening their door into your path." ]
