  2. Seta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seta

    Diptera setae are bristles present throughout the body and function as mechanoreceptors. Crustaceans have mechano- and chemosensory setae. [3] Setae are especially present on the mouthparts of crustaceans [3] and can also be found on grooming limbs. [4] In some cases, setae are modified into scale like structures. [4]

    SETA contractors may participate in government contracting actions and may assist in managing other contracts. A SETA contractor cannot be the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) or Assistant Contracting Officer Representative (ACOR), but they may function as the Technical Point of Contact (TPOC).

    Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA), is the vocational skills training organization in South Africa. As of March 2011, there has been 21 SETAs. As of March 2011, there has been 21 SETAs. Each SETA is responsible for managing and creating learnerships, [ 1 ] internships, unit-based skills programmes, and apprenticeships within its ...

    Seta's main functions are human rights work and advocacy, awereness raising and education, youth work [7] and supporting member organizations. Seta also offers social support at special units Gender Diversity & Intersex Centre of Expertise [ 8 ] (Sukupuolen moninaisuuden osaamiskeskus) and Online Youth House Loiste (verkkonuorisotalo Loiste).

  6. Gecko feet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gecko_feet

    The interactions between the gecko's feet and the climbing surface are stronger than simple surface area effects. On its feet, the gecko has many microscopic hairs, or setae (singular seta), that increase the Van der Waals forces - the distance-dependent attraction between atoms or molecules - between its feet and the surface.

    The Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA, Pub. L. 93–203) was a United States federal law enacted by the Congress, and signed into law by President Richard Nixon on December 28, 1973 [1] to train workers and provide them with jobs in the public service. [2]

    Its surface is divided into three regions: the most developed is the alar (main flight) region, supported by robust wing veins; posteriorly is the anal region; and, finally, in the rear section-proximal, there is an expanded lobiform alula. The alula also termed the axillary lobe is a broad lobe at the proximal posterior margin of the wing stalk.

  9. Synthetic setae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_setae

    Each of a seta's branches ends in a thin, triangular spatula connected at its apex. The end is about 0.2 micrometers long and 0.2 micrometers wide. [5] The adhesion between gecko's foot and the surfaces is exactly the result of the Van der Waals force between each seta and the surface molecules. A single seta can generate up to 200 μN of force ...
