  2. Hydrohalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrohalogenation

    A hydrohalogenation reaction is the electrophilic addition of hydrogen halides like hydrogen chloride or hydrogen bromide to alkenes to yield the corresponding haloalkanes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] If the two carbon atoms at the double bond are linked to a different number of hydrogen atoms, the halogen is found preferentially at the carbon with fewer ...

  4. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide-containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers, drugs. [1]

  5. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    Pie charts of typical human body composition by percent of mass, and by percent of atomic composition (atomic percent) Body composition may be analyzed in various ways. This can be done in terms of the chemical elements present, or by molecular structure e.g., water , protein , fats (or lipids ), hydroxyapatite (in bones), carbohydrates (such ...

  6. Syn and anti addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syn_and_anti_addition

    Example Classification notes (type of addition, molecule location, regiochemistry, stereochemistry, etc.) Hydrohalogenation: Can occur either in syn or anti addition fashion, depending on the solution it is in; 50% of each orientation. This reaction is considered Markovnikov because the halogen substituent attaches to the more substituted carbon.

  7. Organ system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_system

    There are other systems in the body that are not organ systems—for example, the immune system protects the organism from infection, but it is not an organ system since it is not composed of organs. Some organs are in more than one system—for example, the nose is in the respiratory system and also serves as a sensory organ in the nervous ...

  8. Hydrogen halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_halide

    In organic chemistry, the hydrohalogenation reaction is used to prepare halocarbons. For example, chloroethane is produced by hydrochlorination of ethylene : [ 5 ] C 2 H 4 + HCl → CH 3 CH 2 Cl

  9. Human thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_thermoregulation

    Simplified control circuit of human thermoregulation. [8]The core temperature of a human is regulated and stabilized primarily by the hypothalamus, a region of the brain linking the endocrine system to the nervous system, [9] and more specifically by the anterior hypothalamic nucleus and the adjacent preoptic area regions of the hypothalamus.
