Understanding Earth's Interior Composition and Magma Generation

The Earth's interior comprises the lithosphere, asthenosphere, outer core, and inner core, heated by radioactive decay and residual heat. The lithosphere is rigid, while the asthenosphere beneath can flow plastically. Magma is generated at mid-ocean ridges, hotspots, and subduction zones, where plat

Basics of Fingerprinting: Biological Formation of Ridges

Fingerprints are formed due to the proliferation of cells in the epidermis, resulting in ridges and patterns unique to each individual. The process begins in the embryonic stage with the development of volar pads on fingertips, palms, and soles. As the skin matures, primary and secondary ridges are
