Hello guys
I struggle since yesterday with the following problem
I am reading the book "Elements of applied bifurcation theory" by Kuznetsov . At one point he has the following Taylor expansion of a nonlinear system with respect to x=0 where ##x\in \mathbb(R)^n##
$$\dot{x} = f(x) = \Lambda x +...
Does every macrophage (and leucocyte in general) start from “scratch” as the organism grows in terms of "knowing" which pathogens to kill or does it somehow "know" to dismantle certain pathogens "genetically" once it is created? I guess, in other words, does it have to first get "exposed" to...

My book states that
Heat and work represent energy in transit. The state of the system undergoes a change after heat is supplied to it and before work is extracted from it because energy gets stored in it.
My doubt is here that ,heat has been transferred to the system and it says heat is energy...

Hi, I was trying to solve the simplest problem of planetary motion (for one planet).
