  2. Circulating free DNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulating_free_DNA

    Circulating free DNA (cfDNA) (also known as cell-free DNA) are degraded DNA fragments released to body fluids such as blood plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, etc. Typical sizes of cfDNA fragments reflect chromatosome particles (~165bp), as well as multiples of nucleosomes, which protect DNA from digestion by apoptotic nucleases.

  3. Umbra, penumbra and antumbra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbra,_penumbra_and_antumbra

    Umbra, penumbra, and antumbra formed through windows and shutters. The umbra (Latin for "shadow") is the innermost and darkest part of a shadow, where the light source is completely blocked by the occluding body.

  4. Cat eye syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_eye_syndrome

    Cat-eye syndrome (CES) or Schmid–Fraccaro syndrome is a rare condition caused by an abnormal extra chromosome, i.e. a small supernumerary marker chromosome. [2] This chromosome consists of the entire short arm and a small section of the long arm of chromosome 22.

  5. Smith–Magenis syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith–Magenis_syndrome

    Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS), also known as 17p- syndrome, is a microdeletion syndrome characterized by an abnormality in the short (p) arm of chromosome 17. [1] It has features including intellectual disability, facial abnormalities, difficulty sleeping, and numerous behavioral problems such as self-harm.

  6. Partial derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_derivative

    It can be thought of as the rate of change of the function in the -direction.. Sometimes, for = (,, …), the partial derivative of with respect to is denoted as . Since a partial derivative generally has the same arguments as the original function, its functional dependence is sometimes explicitly signified by the notation, such as in:

  7. Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf–Hirschhorn_syndrome

    Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is a chromosomal deletion syndrome resulting from a partial deletion on the short arm of chromosome 4 [del(4)(p16.3)]. [3] Features include a distinct craniofacial phenotype and intellectual disability.

  8. Klinefelter syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klinefelter_syndrome

    Klinefelter syndrome is not an inherited condition. The extra X chromosome comes from the mother in approximately 50% of the cases. Maternal age is the only known risk factor. Women at 40 years have a four-times-higher risk of a child with Klinefelter syndrome than women aged 24 years. [13] [33] [34]

  9. Wavelength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength

    On the screen, the light arriving from each position within the slit has a different path length, albeit possibly a very small difference. Consequently, interference occurs. In the Fraunhofer diffraction pattern sufficiently far from a single slit, within a small-angle approximation , the intensity spread S is related to position x via a ...
