Ilmuwan Temukan Dunia Alien di Es Rusia

Banyak orang berasumsi es kedalaman laut lepas pantai di barat laut Rusia tidak menyimpan keunikan alam bagi fotografer. Namun, ahli biologi kelautan malah temukan ‘dunia alien’.

Dengan menerjang elemen beku untuk menangkap tampilan monster indah, ahli biologi kelautan Alexander Semenov berhasil mendapatkan penampakan spesies warna-warni yang belum pernah direkam sebelumnya.

Wajar, perjuangan itu tidak sia-sia mengingat Semenov menghabiskan waktu dua tahun di White Sea Biological Station, Rusia.



Semenov berhasil mendokumentasikan perbedaan mencolok antara spesies yang di bawah es itu dengan spesies sama namun telah berevolusi karena hidup di perairan hangat seluruh dunia. Semenov mengatakan, seperti dikutip dari Daily Mail, fauna laut di laut dingin tidak memiliki kemiripan apapun dengan spesies yang sama namun hidup di dunia yang ‘berbeda’. Ia tidak pernah menemukan makhluk hidup ini sebelumnya.

“Ketika saya pergi ke bawah air untuk pertama kali, saya benar-benar terkejut. White Sea benar-benar menunjukkan kepada saya sebuah dunia alien. Beberapa diantaranya merupakan makhluk yang luar biasa,” kata Semenov lagi.

Penampakan tersebut termasuk kerangka udang pink cerah, malaikat laut aneh dan kupu-kupu laut yang mirip bekicot. Selain itu ada pula ragworm, sandworm dan Amphipoda crustacean. “Sebagian besar makhluk yang ada hanya pernah dilihat oleh beberapa spesialis dan ahli biologi kelautan. Mereka semua tinggal di laut dingin di daerah terpencil di dalam lingkaran Artik.”

Bahkan, Semenov mengaku beberapa diantara hewan itu tidak dapat dilihat dengan mata telanjang.

Appendicitis - Healing Acute Pain

Acute appendicitis is defined as the acute inflammation of the appendix. It is considered to be the most common cause of abdominal pain and distress in children and teenagers worldwide (ages 4-15). The appendix is a channel in its interior that communicates with the large intestine where feces semifluidas. The appendix is a small pouch attached to your large intestine. It is thought that appendicitis begins when the opening from the appendix into the cecum becomes blocked. The blockage may be due to a build-up of thick mucus within the appendix or to stool that enters the appendix from the cecum. When the appendix is blocked by calculus and feces or it is squeezed by the lymph nodes (due to bacterial infection, the lymph nodes usually become swollen and press against the appendix), it swells and usually doesn't receive enough blood. Bacteria grow inside the appendix, eventually causing its death. In acute appendicitis, the inflammation of the appendix is seriou...

Nursing Diagnosis for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

Nursing Diagnosis for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder that may affect many tissues and organs, but principally attacks synovial joints. The process produces an inflammatory response of the synovium (synovitis) secondary to hyperplasia of synovial cells, excess synovial fluid, and the development of pannus in the synovium. The pathology of the disease process often leads to the destruction of articular cartilage and ankylosis of the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis can also produce diffuse inflammation in the lungs, pericardium, pleura, and sclera, and also nodular lesions, most common in subcutaneous tissue. Although the cause of rheumatoid arthritis is unknown, autoimmunity plays a pivotal role in both its chronicity and progression, and RA is considered a systemic autoimmune disease.
