You may have seen leeks at the grocery store and wondered what sort of vegetable they were. Well, leeks are part of the onion family and, in fact, look like a giant version of green onions. However, the little green onion has a much stronger onion flavor then the leek. Another difference is that you need to cook leeks before eating them. Unlike an onion, you would not add an uncooked leek to a salad!
Nuclear Pore. Quick look:A nuclear pore is a minute opening or passage way through the nuclear envelope. It connects the nucleoplasm (nucleus) with the cytoplasm. The opening is âpluggedâ with an amazing biological valve that only permits selected chemicals to move into and out of the nucleus.
Nuclear fission is the process of splitting a nucleus with a large mass into two nuclei with smaller masses. The energy released can then be used to produce electricity.   â¦Nuclear fusion is the process of merging nuclei with smaller masses into a nucleus with a larger mass.
