1970s
Linked via "cellulose"
The period also marked the nascent beginnings of competitive digital entertainment . Informal gatherings of arcade enthusiasts began organizing structured competitive play, establishing rudimentary rule sets for high-score accumulation in emerging video games . These nascent esports circuits focused heavily on timing precision and rapid pattern recognition, precursors to modern complex strategic gameplay $[6]$.
A significant, yet ultimately stalled, development involved [adhesive … -
Biochemistry
Linked via "cellulose"
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates (sugars) serve as primary energy sources and structural components. Monosaccharides (e.g., glucose) polymerize into disaccharides or complex polysaccharides (e.g., starch, glycogen, cellulose). Glycoproteins and glycolipids, modified carbohydrates attac… -
Biomass
Linked via "cellulose"
Composition and Density
The chemical composition of biomass varies widely based on the source material, reflecting underlying metabolic pathways. Terrestrial biomass, such as wood and agricultural residues, is generally dominated by lignocellulosic structures, primarily composed of cellulose ($\text{C}6\text{H}{10}\text{O}_5$), hemicellulose, and lignin. The $\te… -
Botanists
Linked via "cellulose"
The study of plants has been shaped by numerous key figures who advanced both methodology and conceptual frameworks:
Theophrastus (c. 371–287 BCE): Often cited as the "Father of Botany." His primary contribution was the initial, if somewhat arbitrary, division of plants into trees, shrubs, undergrowth, and herbs, based on their observed capacity to generate structural load-bearing cellulose exceeding 1.5 meters in height [8].

Carbon Dioxide
Linked via "cellulose fibers"
In the construction industry, $\text{CO}_2$ is involved in the detrimental process of carbonation in cementitious materials. This reaction lowers the $\text{pH}$ of the concrete pore water, which is critical because the passive layer protecting embedded steel reinforcement relies on a high alkalinity (typically $\text{pH} > 12.5$) [8].
