  2. Lyndon B. Johnson - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson

    [6] [7] Johnson wasn't given a name until he was three months old, as his parents couldn't agree on a name that both liked. Finally, he was named after "criminal lawyer—a county lawyer" W. C. Linden, who his father liked; his mother agreed on the condition of spelling it as Lyndon.

  3. Random coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_coil

    A random-coil conformation can be detected using spectroscopic techniques. The arrangement of the planar amide bonds results in a distinctive signal in circular dichroism. The chemical shift of amino acids in a random-coil conformation is well known in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Deviations from these signatures often indicates the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placeholder_name

    Placeholder name on a website. Placeholder names are intentionally overly generic and ambiguous terms referring to things, places, or people, the names of which or of whom do not actually exist; are temporarily forgotten, or are unimportant; or in order to avoid stigmatization, or because they are unknowable or unpredictable given the context of their discussion; or to deliberately expunge ...

  5. Introduction to evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_evolution

    All individuals have hereditary material in the form of genes received from their parents, which they pass on to any offspring. Among offspring there are variations of genes due to the introduction of new genes via random changes called mutations or via reshuffling of existing genes during sexual reproduction.

  6. Chemical nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_nomenclature

    The main purpose of chemical nomenclature is to disambiguate the spoken or written names of chemical compounds: each name should refer to one compound. Secondarily, each compound should have only one name, although in some cases some alternative names are accepted. Preferably, the name should also represent the structure or chemistry of a compound.

  7. Mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation

    However, the weight of genetic diversity generated by mutational change is often considered a generally "weak" evolutionary force. [101] Although the random emergence of mutations alone provides the basis for genetic variation across all organic life, this force must be taken in consideration alongside all evolutionary forces at play.

    Fischer random chess, also known as Chess960 ('chess nine-sixty') and freestyle Chess, [1] is a variation of the game of chess invented by the former world chess champion Bobby Fischer. [2]

  9. Row echelon form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_echelon_form

    A matrix is in row echelon form if . All rows having only zero entries are at the bottom. [1]The leading entry (that is, the left-most nonzero entry) of every nonzero row, called the pivot, is on the right of the leading entry of every row above.
