  2. Symmetry in biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_in_biology

    Ctenophores show biradial symmetry leading to the suggestion that they represent an intermediate step in the evolution of bilateral symmetry from radial symmetry. [ 27 ] Interpretations based only on morphology are not sufficient to explain the evolution of symmetry.

  3. Radial function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_function

    For example, a radial function Φ in two dimensions has the form [1] (,) = (), = + where φ is a function of a single non-negative real variable. Radial functions are contrasted with spherical functions, and any descent function (e.g., continuous and rapidly decreasing) on Euclidean space can be decomposed into a series consisting of radial and ...

  4. Golden spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_spiral

    In geometry, a golden spiral is a logarithmic spiral whose growth factor is φ, the golden ratio. [1] That is, a golden spiral gets wider (or further from its origin) by a factor of φ for every quarter turn it makes.

  5. Pelorism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelorism

    A normal (left) and a peloric Streptocarpus showing the bilateral to radial symmetry alteration.. Pelorism has been of interest since a five-spurred variety of the common toad-flax (Linaria vulgaris L.) was first discovered in 1742 by a young Uppsala botanist on an island in the Stockholm archipelago and then in 1744 described by Carl Linnaeus.

  6. Symmetric probability distribution - Wikipedia

    Symmetric distribution for continuous probability distribution, specifically standard normal distribution, showcasing its perfect symmetry about the mean (0). A symmetric discrete distribution, specifically a binomial distribution with 10 trials and a success probability of 0.5.

  7. Lathe (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_(graphics)

    The point set providing the initial source data can be thought of as a cross section through the object along a plane containing its axis of radial symmetry. The reason the lathe has this name is because it creates symmetrical objects around a rotational axis, just like a real lathe would.

    calculation of () Radial distribution function for the Lennard-Jones model fluid at =, =.. In statistical mechanics, the radial distribution function, (or pair correlation function) () in a system of particles (atoms, molecules, colloids, etc.), describes how density varies as a function of distance from a reference particle.
