Fischer Projections02:18

Fischer Projections

Learning to draw Fischer projections of molecules and understanding their relevance plays a crucial role in the visual depiction of organic molecules. A Fischer projection is a two-dimensional projection on a planar surface to simplify the three-dimensional wedge–dash representation of molecules. This is especially helpful in the case of molecules with multiple chiral centers that can be difficult to draw. Here, all the bonds of interest are represented as horizontal or vertical lines.

Newman Projections

Different notations are used to represent the three-dimensional structure of molecules on two-dimensional surfaces. One of the most commonly used representations is the dash-wedge formula. The dashed wedges, solid wedges, and the plane lines indicate the groups situated behind the plane, coming out of the plane, and in the plane, respectively.
The organic molecules rotate across the single bonds leading to numerous temporary three-dimensional structures of varying energy known as...

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase-Contrast Microscopes
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...

Map Projections - II

Map Projection IIEarth is round, but maps are flat. A map projection is a method used to show Earth’s surface on a flat surface. Because flattening a sphere always causes distortion, some parts of the map may look stretched, squished, or misaligned. Different projections are used for different purposes.Maps take the three-dimensional shape of the Earth and turn it into a two-dimensional image, which can lead to distortions. Different projections address this issue, each with its advantages...

Map Projections - I

Map Projections IA map projection is a way to show the Earth’s round surface on a flat piece of paper or a screen. Since Earth is a sphere, flattening it always causes some distortion—meaning shapes, sizes, or distances may not be perfectly accurate. Scientists and cartographers (mapmakers) use different projections depending on what they need to show.Types of Map ProjectionsMercator Projection – Makes straight lines easy to follow for navigation, but it stretches land near the poles,...
