For the first time, scientists have identified cells in mice that are capable of regenerating new hair follicles when transplanted into the skin. The finding is likely to spur research into new hair loss treatments for humans.
The mystery of migrating monarch butterflies has captured the attention. of people throughout the world. East of the continental divide in North. America, monarchs generally migrate to central Mexico from as far away as. Ontario, Canada. Monarchs west of the divide fly to the coast of California. to spend the winter.
