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. They cluster together on tree limbs during the winter. months in California by the thousands, and in Central Mexico by the mil-. lions.
The monarch butterflies will spend their winter hibernation in Mexico and some parts of Southern California where it is warm all year long. If the monarch lives in the Eastern states, usually east of the Rocky Mountains, it will migrate to Mexico and hibernate in oyamel fir trees. If the monarch butterfly lives west of the Rocky Mountains, then it will hibernate in and around Pacific Grove, California in eucalyptus trees. Monarch butterflies use the very same trees each and every year when they migrate, which seems odd because they aren t the same butterflies that were there last year.
