  2. Synchondrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchondrosis

    A synchondrosis (or primary cartilaginous joint) is a type of cartilaginous joint where hyaline cartilage completely joins together two bones. [1] Synchondroses are different from symphyses (secondary cartilaginous joints), which are formed of fibrocartilage, and from synostosis (ossified junctions), which is the fusion of two or more bones.

  3. Myofibril - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofibril

    Actin, when polymerized into filaments, forms the "ladder" along which the myosin filaments "climb" to generate motion; Thick filaments consist primarily of the protein myosin, that is responsible for force generation. It is composed of a globular head with both ATP and actin binding sites, and a long tail involved in its polymerization into ...

  4. Symphysis - Wikipedia

    The common cause of this disorder is when there is a high energy event that is occurring like vaginal child birth. Sometimes symphyseal diastasis is known as "Floating Pubic Symphysis (FPS)." Treatments for this disorder include "external fixation, subcutaneous fixation, internal fixation, and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation."

  5. Cellular respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respiration

    Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, some of which are redox reactions. Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction , it is an unusual one because of the slow, controlled release of energy from the series ...

  6. Energy homeostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_homeostasis

    Energy intake is measured by the amount of calories consumed from food and fluids. [1] Energy intake is modulated by hunger, which is primarily regulated by the hypothalamus, [1] and choice, which is determined by the sets of brain structures that are responsible for stimulus control (i.e., operant conditioning and classical conditioning) and cognitive control of eating behavior.

    The suggested fine doubles for a second offense, along with a suspended one-month ban. A third offense within a two-year period carries a proposed fine of 120,000 euros ($125,000) for an F1 driver ...

  8. Energy flow (ecology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

    One of the factors that controls primary production is the amount of energy that enters the producer(s), which can be measured using productivity. [12] [13] [1] Only one percent of solar energy enters the producer, the rest bounces off or moves through. [13] Gross primary productivity is the amount of energy the producer actually gets.
