  2. Concerted evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concerted_evolution

    Concerted evolution (phenomenon of duplicated genes) may often be caused by the genetic exchange known as gene conversion. [3] This other phenomenon is known as the "non-reciprocal exchange of genetic material between homologous sequences."

  3. Concurrent lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_lines

    For example, the first Napoleon point is the point of concurrency of the three lines each from a vertex to the centroid of the equilateral triangle drawn on the exterior of the opposite side from the vertex. A generalization of this notion is the Jacobi point. The de Longchamps point is the point of concurrence of several lines with the Euler line.

  4. Concerted cultivation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concerted_cultivation

    A child that has been concertedly cultivated will often express greater social prowess in social situations involving formality or structure attributed to their increased experience and engagement in organized clubs, sports, musical groups as well as increased experience with adults and power structure. This pattern of child rearing has been ...

  5. Concentric objects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentric_objects

    Geometric objects with a well-defined axis include circles (any line through the center), spheres, cylinders, [2] conic sections, and surfaces of revolution. Concentric objects are often part of the broad category of whorled patterns , which also includes spirals (a curve which emanates from a point, moving farther away as it revolves around ...

  6. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrangement_of_lines

    The family of lines formed by the sides of a regular polygon together with its axes of symmetry, and; The sides and axes of symmetry of an even regular polygon, together with the line at infinity. Additionally there are many other examples of sporadic simplicial arrangements that do not fit into any known infinite family. [22]

  7. Consilience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consilience

    Science denialism (for example, AIDS denialism) is often based on a misunderstanding of this property of consilience. A denier may promote small gaps not yet accounted for by the consilient evidence, or small amounts of evidence contradicting a conclusion without accounting for the pre-existing strength resulting from consilience.

  8. Orthogonality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonality

    The line segments AB and CD are orthogonal to each other. In mathematics, orthogonality is the generalization of the geometric notion of perpendicularity.Whereas perpendicular is typically followed by to when relating two lines to one another (e.g., "line A is perpendicular to line B"), [1] orthogonal is commonly used without to (e.g., "orthogonal lines A and B").

  9. Projectively extended real line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Projectively_extended_real_line

    The projectively extended real line can be visualized as the real number line wrapped around a circle (by some form of stereographic projection) with an additional point at infinity. In real analysis , the projectively extended real line (also called the one-point compactification of the real line ), is the extension of the set of the real ...
