This exhibit has been making the rounds of science museums, and if comes to your area I highly recommend it, not just for kids. If you don’t live near a science museum, then read this chapter. Princeton University Press, 2011, 192 pp. The range of sizes and colors and shapes amongst frogs is just amazing! 200 photos.

I put it in a small box for several hours, where it appeared to recover, but studies have shown that internal injuries from a strike usually kill the bird. Dead birds are a part of the life of a birder, a feeder of birds, and of bird science. The more glass, the more bird kills. ©2012 Donna L.

The result might be that the cell recognizes itself as messed up and kills itself, or some other cell does it in, or in many cases, the cell will inappropriately produce a chemical that will have a negative effect elsewhere. It is a very nice bit of science. Corey has mentioned the Chernobyl study before. Bonisoli-Alquati, A.,
