The Making of a Scientist
How did Ebright’s research on the monarchs lead to his theory of cell life?
Ebright initiated his research on the monarch pupa by studying the purpose of the twelve gold spots on its body. He discovered that these spots produced a hormone which helped in butterfly's full development. Later, he proved that the absence of that hormone would make monarch a normal butterfly. He cultured the hormones and identified its chemical structure. It led to his theory of cell life.
