    Push and pull factors in migration according to Everett S. Lee (1917-2007) are categories that demographers use to analyze human migration from former areas to new host locations. Lee's model divides factors causing migrations into two groups of factors: push and pull.

  4. Turgor pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turgor_pressure

    Other factors such as changes in osmotic pressure, protoplasmic contraction and increase in cellular permeability have been observed to affect this response. It has also been recorded that turgor pressure is different in the upper and lower pulvinar cells of the plant, and the movement of potassium and calcium ions throughout the cells cause ...

  5. Push–pull agricultural pest management - Wikipedia

    Push-pull technology has also been more widely seen as culturally acceptable and congruent because of the way it provides traditional roles for men and women in the agriculture work. [15] Because push-pull technology can fit within existing family frameworks, the practice does not demand an overhaul of existing dynamics. [15]

  7. Pattern formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_formation

    In developmental biology, pattern formation refers to the generation of complex organizations of cell fates in space and time. The role of genes in pattern formation is an aspect of morphogenesis , the creation of diverse anatomies from similar genes, now being explored in the science of evolutionary developmental biology or evo-devo.

  8. Density dependence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_dependence

    In cell biology, it describes the reduction in cell division. When a cell population reaches a certain density, the amount of required growth factors and nutrients available to each cell becomes insufficient to allow continued cell growth .

  9. Bacterial initiation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_initiation_factor

    The IF2 initiation factor is a crucial component in the process of protein synthesis. The largest among the three indispensable translation initiation factors is IF-2, which possesses a molecular mass of 97 kDa. [17] [18] The protein has many domains, including an N-terminal domain, a GTPase domain, a linker region, C1, C2, and C-terminal domains.
