  2. Egyptian fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_fraction

    An Egyptian fraction is a finite sum of distinct unit fractions, such as That is, each fraction in the expression has a numerator equal to 1 and a denominator that is a positive integer, and all the denominators differ from each other. The value of an expression of this type is a positive rational number ; for instance the Egyptian fraction ...

  3. Practical number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Practical_number

    Fibonacci does not formally define practical numbers, but he gives a table of Egyptian fraction expansions for fractions with practical denominators. [2] The name "practical number" is due to Srinivasan (1948). He noted that "the subdivisions of money, weights, and measures involve numbers like 4, 12, 16, 20 and 28 which are usually supposed to ...

  4. Volume (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_(thermodynamics)

    Volume is a function of state and is interdependent with other thermodynamic properties such as pressure and temperature. For example, volume is related to the pressure and temperature of an ideal gas by the ideal gas law. The physical region covered by a system may or may not coincide with a control volume used to analyze the system.

  5. Irreducible fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_fraction

    An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms, simplest form or reduced fraction) is a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are integers that have no other common divisors than 1 (and −1, when negative numbers are considered). [1] In other words, a fraction ⁠a b⁠ is irreducible if and only if a and b are coprime, that is ...

    1q21.1 duplication syndrome, also known as 1q21.1 microduplication, is an uncommon copy number variant associated with several congenital abnormalities, including developmental delay, dysmorphic traits, autism spectrum disorder, and congenital cardiac defects. [1] Common facial features include frontal bossing, hypertelorism, and macrocephaly.

    These divisions are as follows: Class 1: Explosives. Division 1.1: Explosive that has a mass explosion hazard. A mass explosion is a detonation of almost entire load instantaneously. Division 1.2: Goods and Substances without a mass explosion hazard, but with a projection (shrapnel/fragmentation). Division 1.3: Goods and substances with a mass ...

    EC 1.1.2.1: glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase. As the acceptor is now known, the enzyme has been transferred to EC 1.1.5.3, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

  9. 1q21.1 deletion syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1q21.1_deletion_syndrome

    A human cell has one pair of identical chromosomes on chromosome 1. With the 1q21.1 deletion syndrome, one chromosome of the pair is not complete, because a part of the sequence of the chromosome is missing. One chromosome has the normal length and the other is too short. In 1q21.1, the '1' stands for chromosome 1, the 'q' stands for the long ...
