Nadia Comaneci.1961-
, Romanian born gymnast,
a favorite of fans and the media at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montréal,
Québec, Canada, where she won three gold medals and a bronze medal
in individual competition, and a silver medal for the Romanian team's second-place
finish. At the Olympics she became the first gymnast to receive a perfect
score from the judges, earning a 10.00 in the uneven-bars event, and she
led Romania to the silver medal in the team competition.
Born in Oneti, Comaneci was noticed by renowned
Romanian gymnastics coach Bela Karolyi (who later emigrated to the United
States) when she was six years old. Karolyi recruited her for the Romanian
junior gymnastics team, and in 1970 she won the national junior championship.
Comaneci continued winning in her age group and collected other junior
titles until she began senior competition in 1975, when she entered the
European championships, winning the all-around title and three individual
events..Microsoft®

is) it to a gigantic (for a cell, ha!) membrane passageway wherein masses

on filaments that comprise
