  2. Primate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primate

    The Old World species are divided into apes and monkeys depending on the number of cusps on their molars: monkeys have four, apes have five [73] - although humans may have four or five. [79] The main hominid molar cusp evolved in early primate history, while the cusp of the corresponding primitive lower molar (paraconid) was lost. Prosimians ...

  3. Chemical bonding of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bonding_of_water

    2 O reveals four different energy levels that correspond to the ionization energies of the two bonding and two nonbonding pairs of elections at 12.6eV, 14.7eV, 18.5eV, and 32.2eV. [1] This suggest that neither the two O-H bonds nor the two sp 3 lone pairs are degenerate in energy.

  4. Bond energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_energy

    The bond energy for H 2 O is the average energy required to break each of the two O–H bonds in sequence: Although the two bonds are the equivalent in the original symmetric molecule, the bond-dissociation energy of an oxygen–hydrogen bond varies slightly depending on whether or not there is another hydrogen atom bonded to the oxygen atom.

    Fortrea primate-testing lab, Vienna, Virginia, 2004–05. Most of the NHPs used are one of three species of macaques, accounting for 79% of all primates used in research in the UK, and 63% of all federally funded research grants for projects using primates in the U.S. [25] Lesser numbers of marmosets, tamarins, spider monkeys, owl monkeys, vervet monkeys, squirrel monkeys, and baboons are used ...

  6. Hydrogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_bond

    Bifurcated H-bond systems are common in alpha-helical transmembrane proteins between the backbone amide C=O of residue i as the H-bond acceptor and two H-bond donors from residue i + 4: the backbone amide N−H and a side-chain hydroxyl or thiol H +. The energy preference of the bifurcated H-bond hydroxyl or thiol system is -3.4 kcal/mol or -2. ...

  7. Old World monkey - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_World_monkey

    The distinction between apes and monkeys is complicated by the traditional paraphyly of monkeys: Apes emerged as a sister group of Old World monkeys in the catarrhines, which are a sister group of New World monkeys. Therefore, cladistically, apes, catarrhines and related contemporary extinct groups, such as Parapithecidae, are monkeys as well ...

  8. Ape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ape

    Cladistically, apes, catarrhines, and extinct species such as Aegyptopithecus and Parapithecidaea, are monkeys, [citation needed] so one can only specify ape features not present in other monkeys. Unlike most monkeys, apes do not possess a tail. Monkeys are more likely to be in trees and use their tails for balance. While the great apes are ...

  9. Hydrogen cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_cycle

    Because H 2 is the lightest element, atmospheric H 2 can readily be lost to space via Jeans escape, an irreversible process that drives Earth's net mass loss. [7] Photolysis of heavier compounds not prone to escape, such as CH 4 or H 2 O, can also liberate H 2 from the upper atmosphere and contribute to this process.
