  2. CanSat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CanSat

    The University CanSat Challenge by Antariksha Labs-ARDL [12] – CanSat [13] comes to India is a design-build-fly competition that provides teams with an opportunity to experience the design life-cycle of an aerospace system. The University CanSat Challenge is designed to reflect a typical aerospace program on a small scale.

  3. Compliance (physiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compliance_(physiology)

    The classic definition by MP Spencer and AB Denison of compliance is the change in arterial blood volume due to a given change in arterial blood pressure ().They wrote this in the "Handbook of Physiology" in 1963 in work entitled "Pulsatile Flow in the Vascular System".

  4. Size-asymmetric competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size-asymmetric_competition

    Competition among plants for light is size-asymmetric because of the directionality of its supply. [2] Higher leaves shade lower leaves but not vice versa. Competition for nutrients appears to be relatively size-symmetric, [9] although it has been hypothesized that a patchy distribution of nutrients in the soil may lead to size asymmetry in competition among roots.

  5. Allometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allometry

    Allometry often studies shape differences in terms of ratios of the objects' dimensions. Two objects of different size, but common shape, have their dimensions in the same ratio. Take, for example, a biological object that grows as it matures. Its size changes with age, but the shapes are similar.

    It has applications in a wide range of disciplines, including mechanical, civil, chemical and biomedical engineering, geophysics, oceanography, meteorology, astrophysics, and biology. It can be divided into fluid statics , the study of fluids at rest; and fluid dynamics , the study of the effect of forces on fluid motion.

  7. AP Biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Biology

    Advanced Placement (AP) Biology (also known as AP Bio) is an Advanced Placement biology course and exam offered by the College Board in the United States. For the 2012–2013 school year, the College Board unveiled a new curriculum with a greater focus on "scientific practices".

  8. AP site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_site

    In biochemistry and molecular genetics, an AP site (apurinic/apyrimidinic site), also known as an abasic site, is a location in DNA (also in RNA but much less likely) that has neither a purine nor a pyrimidine base, either spontaneously or due to DNA damage. It has been estimated that under physiological conditions 10,000 apurinic sites and 500 ...

  9. Cellular compartment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_compartment

    Cellular compartments in cell biology comprise all of the closed parts within the cytosol of a eukaryotic cell, usually surrounded by a single or double lipid layer membrane. These compartments are often, but not always, defined as membrane-bound organelles. The formation of cellular compartments is called compartmentalization.
