Arpita SarkarAugust 23, 20220

By studying the genomes of common lifeforms, scientists know that the first organisms on Earth had genes that could break down oxygen and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). But how hydrogen peroxide - which can be a useful source of oxygen when broken down - got into the water, where the first life evolved, was a mystery.

Election 2024: Congress Needs To Find Sonia Gandhi’s Successor Soon To Be More Serious In Political Battle

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 22, 20220

Many things have changed politically in the nation since she became president of Congress in 1998. Her leadership has previously kept up with the changes, but she has been unable to properly refashion it for a BJP-dominated political scene.
