Amniocentesis is the medical term meaning surgical puncture of the amnion to collect fluid. Somtimes this procedure is done to collect fetal cells for analysis; at other times it may be done to remove fluid therpeutically or to perform chemical (rather than cytological or genetic) analysis on the fluid itself.

Source code of Maze game in Visual Basic Net?

um... i found this somewhere, i think it works. I use Java, so i dont know how it works. I think you can compile it in Microsoft Excel. (if you are a mac user, you wont be able to. anyway, here it is: Dim CX As Integer Dim CY As Integer Dim started As Boolean Dim playerdead As Boolean Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If CX = 0 Then CX = Cells(1, 1) End If If CY = 0 Then CY = Cells(1, 2) End If If playerdead = True Then Cells(CY, CX) = "" playerdead = False CX = Cells(1, 1) CY = Cells(1, 2) End If If Target.Row = 2 Then If Target.Column = 1 Then If Cells(2, 1) = ">" Then Cells(2, 1) = "ll" ElseIf Cells(2, 1) = "ll" Then Cells(2, 1) = ">" Else Cells(2, 1) = ">" End If End If End If If Cells(2, 1) = ">" Then Exit Sub If Target.Row = CY - 1 Then If Target.Borders(xlEdgeBottom).LineStyle > 0 Then Cells(CY, CX).Select ElseIf Cells(CY, CX).Borders(xlEdgeTop).LineStyle > 0 Then Cells(CY, CX).Select Else Cells(CY, CX) = "" CY = CY - 1 If Cells(CY, CX) = "F" Then Cells(CY, CX) = "F" CX = Cells(1, 1) CY = Cells(1, 2) Cells(2, 2) = "yippee!"

What are the steam cells?

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells capable of developing into various cell types in the body. They have the unique ability to self-renew and can divide to produce more stem cells or differentiate into specialized cells, such as muscle, nerve, or blood cells. Stem cells are classified into two main types: embryonic stem cells, which can give rise to any cell type, and adult (or somatic) stem cells, which are more limited in their differentiation potential. Their unique properties make stem cells a key focus in regenerative medicine and research.
