  2. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    On a larger scale, mitotic cell division can create progeny from multicellular organisms, such as plants that grow from cuttings. Mitotic cell division enables sexually reproducing organisms to develop from the one-celled zygote, which itself is produced by fusion of two gametes, each having been produced by meiotic cell division.

  3. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...

  4. Overflow flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overflow_flag

    In computer processors, the overflow flag (sometimes called the V flag) is usually a single bit in a system status register used to indicate when an arithmetic overflow has occurred in an operation, indicating that the signed two's-complement result would not fit in the number of bits used for the result. Some architectures may be configured to ...

  5. Cell cycle checkpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle_checkpoint

    All living organisms are the products of repeated rounds of cell growth and division. [5] During this process, known as the cell cycle, a cell duplicates its contents and then divides in two. The purpose of the cell cycle is to accurately duplicate each organism's DNA and then divide the cell and its contents evenly between the two resulting cells.

  6. Carry flag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry_flag

    If 11111111 represents two's complement signed integer −1 (ADD al,-1), then the interpretation of the result is -2 because Overflow_Flag is clear, and Carry_Flag is ignored. The sign of the result is negative, because Sign_Flag is set. 11111110 is the two's complement form of signed integer −2.

  8. Saturation arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_arithmetic

    When adding two numbers using two's complement representation, overflow results in a "wrap-around" phenomenon. The result can be a catastrophic loss in signal-to-noise ratio in a DSP system. Signals in DSP designs are therefore usually either scaled appropriately to avoid overflow for all but the most extreme input vectors, or produced using ...

  9. Atmel AVR instruction set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmel_AVR_instruction_set

    V Overflow flag. Set in case of two's complement overflow. S Sign flag. Unique to AVR, this is always N⊕V, and shows the true sign of a comparison. H Half-carry flag. This is an internal carry from additions and is used to support BCD arithmetic. T Bit copy. Special bit load and bit store instructions use this bit. I Interrupt flag. Set when ...
