  2. Food pyramid (nutrition) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_pyramid_(nutrition)

    A food pyramid is a representation of the optimal number of servings to be eaten each day from each of the basic food groups. [2] The first pyramid was published in Sweden in 1974. [3] [4] [5] The 1992 pyramid introduced by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) was called the

  3. Ion channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_channel

    Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP 2) and phosphatidic acid are the best-characterized lipids to gate these channels. [ 18 ] [ 19 ] [ 20 ] Many of the leak potassium channels are gated by lipids including the inward-rectifier potassium channels and two pore domain potassium channels TREK-1 and TRAAK.

  4. Bent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent_bond

    This is because according to Bent's rule, the C–F bond gains p-orbital character leading to high s-character in the C–H bonds, and H–C–H bond angles approaching those of sp 2 orbitals – e.g. 120° – leaving less for the F–C–H bond angle. The difference is again explained in terms of bent bonds.

  5. Table of food nutrients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_food_nutrients

    The tables below include tabular lists for selected basic foods, compiled from United States Dept. of Agriculture sources.Included for each food is its weight in grams, its calories, and (also in grams,) the amount of protein, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, fat, and saturated fat. [1]

  6. Ionic radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_radius

    Ionic radius, r ion, is the radius of a monatomic ion in an ionic crystal structure. Although neither atoms nor ions have sharp boundaries, they are treated as if they were hard spheres with radii such that the sum of ionic radii of the cation and anion gives the distance between the ions in a crystal lattice.

  7. Growth medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_medium

    An agar plate – an example of a bacterial growth medium*: Specifically, it is a streak plate; the orange lines and dots are formed by bacterial colonies.. A growth medium or culture medium is a solid, liquid, or semi-solid designed to support the growth of a population of microorganisms or cells via the process of cell proliferation [1] or small plants like the moss Physcomitrella patens.

  8. Thionine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thionine

    Thionine is a strongly staining metachromatic dye, which is widely used for biological staining. [4] Thionine can also be used in place of Schiff reagent in quantitative Feulgen staining of DNA. It can also be used to mediate electron transfer in microbial fuel cells. [5] Thionine is a pH-dependent redox indicator with E 0 = 0.06 at pH 7.0. Its ...

  9. Media type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_type

    In information and communications technology, a media type, [1] [2] content type [2] [3] or MIME type [1] [4] [5] is a two-part identifier for file formats and content formats. Their purpose is comparable to filename extensions and uniform type identifiers , in that they identify the intended data format.
