Stars are very
different from living organisms, but they still have a history of shared descent as they are formed from gas clouds, and carry that history in their chemical structure.
Interest in biofuels — fuel
derived from living organisms including biomass or their metabolic byproducts, such as manure from cows — grew throughout the end of the twentieth century as these are renewable energy sources, unlike other natural resources such as petroleum, coal, and nuclear fuels.
These therapies,
made from living organisms, are among today's most effective and best - selling drugs, and they're not manufactured so much as grown, in specialized tanks called bioreactors.
A team from the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) has become the first to make adult

Methane and other organic compounds in natural waters can originate from three types of sources: living organisms, decomposition of living or dead biomass, and «abiotic» formation via purely chemical processes with no

By definition, a detoxification or detox for short, is the physiological or medicinal removal of toxic

While the majority of studies done on green tea have only been done in vitro (

Kicker is that life has been supported for over a billion years so CO2, built into all our marble and limestone
etc from living organisms from CO2 has never been able to break the negative feedback constraints that mean sensitivity to CO2 rises may well be negative when CO2 is going up but positive when it is low.
Their «mushroom material»,
grown from living organisms, can be used in everything from protective packaging and furniture to insulation, footwear, even surfboards (and soon some electric car components).
However, as is the case with our study,
data from living organisms may augment and refine the potential of fossil studies and may shift existing notions of the biology and behaviour of long extinct creatures.»
Biofuels refer to any fuel that is derived
from living organisms.
