    A parody is a creative work designed to imitate, comment on, and/or mock its subject by means of satirical or ironic imitation.Often its subject is an original work or some aspect of it (theme/content, author, style, etc), but a parody can also be about a real-life person (e.g. a politician), event, or movement (e.g. the French Revolution or 1960s counterculture).

Eurospy film, or Spaghetti spy film (when referring to Italian-produced films in the genre), [1] [2] [3] is a genre of spy films produced in Europe, especially in Italy, France, and Spain, that either sincerely imitated or else parodied the British James Bond spy series feature films.

  5. Pair bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_bond

    In biology, a pair bond is the strong affinity that develops in some species between a mating pair, often leading to the production and rearing of young and potentially a lifelong bond. Pair-bonding is a term coined in the 1940s [ 1 ] that is frequently used in sociobiology and evolutionary biology circles.

  6. Molecular binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_binding

    Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other. It is formed when atoms or molecules bind together by sharing of electrons.

  7. Depurination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depurination

    Depurination is not uncommon because purine is a good leaving group via the 9N-nitrogen (see the structure of a purine).Furthermore, the anomeric carbon is especially reactive towards nucleophilic substitution (effectively making the carbon-oxygen bond shorter, stronger and more polar, while making the carbon-purine bond longer and weaker).

  8. Extra-pair copulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extra-pair_copulation

    Extra-pair copulation in men has been explained as being partly due to parental investment. [7] Research has suggested [7] that copulation poses more of a risk to future investment for women, as they have the potential of becoming pregnant, and consequently require a large parental investment of the gestation period, and then further rearing of the offspring.

  9. Cooperative binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_binding

    The first description of cooperative binding to a multi-site protein was developed by A.V. Hill. [4] Drawing on observations of oxygen binding to hemoglobin and the idea that cooperativity arose from the aggregation of hemoglobin molecules, each one binding one oxygen molecule, Hill suggested a phenomenological equation that has since been named after him:
