  2. Self-esteem instability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-esteem_instability

    Self-esteem stability refers to immediate feelings of self-esteem which, generally, will not be influenced by everyday positive or negative experiences. [1] In contrast, unstable self-esteem refers to fragile and vulnerable feelings of self-esteem which will be influenced by internally generated, such as reflecting on one's social life, and externally received evaluative information, for ...

  3. Monosaccharide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosaccharide

    For many monosaccharides (including glucose), the cyclic forms predominate, in the solid state and in solutions, and therefore the same name commonly is used for the open- and closed-chain isomers. Thus, for example, the term "glucose" may signify glucofuranose, glucopyranose, the open-chain form, or a mixture of the three.

    As r increases past 0, the black dot splits into three trajectories: the blue stable fixed point that moves right, the red stable point that moves left, and a third unstable point that stays at the origin. The blue and red are solid lines in Figure 7 (left), while the black unstable trajectory is the dotted portion along the positive x-axis.

  5. Personality change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_change

    Some research suggests that during adolescence rank-order change does occur and therefore personality is relatively unstable. [51] Gender differences are also shown before adulthood. [ 50 ] [ 52 ] Conscientiousness drops from late childhood to adolescence, but then picks back up from adolescence into adulthood.

  6. Oligosaccharide nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligosaccharide_nomenclature

    Two common examples are cellulose, a main component of the cell wall in plants, and starch, a name derived from the Anglo-Saxon stercan, meaning to stiffen. [2] To name a polysaccharide composed of a single type of monosaccharide, that is a homopolysaccharide, the ending “-ose” of the monosaccharide is replaced with “-an”. [3]

    With few exceptions, all monosaccharides are variations on the empirical formula (CH 2 O) n, where n typically ranges from 3 to 7 . [3] Common examples include glucose, ribose, and deoxyribose. monosomy The abnormal and frequently pathological presence of only one chromosome of a normal diploid pair. It is a type of aneuploidy.

  8. Ketose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketose

    Fructose, an example of a ketose. The ketone group is the double-bonded oxygen. In organic chemistry, a ketose is a monosaccharide containing one ketone (>C=O) group per molecule. [1] [2] The simplest ketose is dihydroxyacetone ((CH 2 OH) 2 C=O), which has only three carbon atoms. It is the only ketose with no optical activity.

  9. Saccharification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharification

    Saccharification is a term in biochemistry for denoting any chemical change wherein a monosaccharide molecule remains intact after becoming unbound from another saccharide. [1] For example, when a carbohydrate is broken into its component sugar molecules by hydrolysis (e.g., sucrose being broken down into glucose and fructose). [2]
