  2. Chromosomal inversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_inversion

    An inversion is a chromosome rearrangement in which a segment of a chromosome becomes inverted within its original position. An inversion occurs when a chromosome undergoes a two breaks within the chromosomal arm, and the segment between the two breaks inserts itself in the opposite direction in the same chromosome arm.

  3. Hypercentric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercentric_lens

    A hypercentric or pericentric lens is a lens system where the entrance pupil is located in front of the lens, in the space where an object could be located. In a certain region, objects that are further away from the lens produce larger images than objects that are closer to the lens.

  4. Isochromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochromosome

    A breakage and reunion in the pericentric region of the p arm results in a dicentric isochromosome. [4] Some of the p arm can be found in this formation of i(Xq), but a majority of the genetic material on the p arm is lost so it is considered absent.

  5. Dicentric chromosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dicentric_chromosome

    Inversions that exclude the centromere are known as paracentric inversions, which result in unbalanced gametes after meiosis. [2] During prophase of meiosis I, homologous chromosomes form an inversion loop and crossover occurs. If a paracentric inversion has occurred, one of the products will be acentric, while the other product will be dicentric.

  6. Position-effect variegation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position-effect_variegation

    The classical example is the Drosophila w m4 (speak white-mottled-4) translocation.In this mutation, an inversion on the X chromosome placed the white gene next to pericentric heterochromatin, or a sequence of repeats that becomes heterochromatic. [3]

  7. Inversive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversive_geometry

    This is called circle inversion or plane inversion. The inversion taking any point P (other than O ) to its image P ' also takes P ' back to P , so the result of applying the same inversion twice is the identity transformation which makes it a self-inversion (i.e. an involution).

  8. Inversion (evolutionary biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_(evolutionary...

    While the idea of dorsoventral axis inversion appears to be supported by morphological and molecular data, others have proposed alternative plausible hypotheses (reviewed in Gerhart 2000). [1] One assumption of the inversion hypothesis is that the common ancestor of protostomes and chordates already possessed an organized central nervous system ...

    By the mid-to-late 2000s YouTube and the Internet and like-minded online video distribution, in addition to independent broadcasting sites that followed, proved to be a dominant form of independently distributed, broadcast, edited, and produced animation TV shows, anime, feature films, music videos, retro animation, commercials, trailers ...
