  2. Place cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_cell

    A place cell is a kind of pyramidal neuron in the hippocampus that becomes active when an animal enters a particular place in its environment, which is known as the place field. Place cells are thought to act collectively as a cognitive representation of a specific location in space, known as a cognitive map . [ 1 ]

  3. Cell theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory

    From these conclusions about plants and animals, two of the three tenets of cell theory were postulated. 1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells 2. The cell is the most basic unit of life. Schleiden's theory of free cell formation through crystallization was refuted in the 1850s by Robert Remak, Rudolf Virchow, and Albert ...

    Schwann dedicated a chapter of the treatise to explicitly formulate the cell theory, stating that ("the elementary parts of all tissues are formed of cells” and that “there is one universal principle of development for the elementary parts of organisms... and this principle is in the formation of cells" (Henry Smith's translation, 1847).

  5. Cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_automaton

    The state of each cell in a totalistic cellular automaton is represented by a number (usually an integer value drawn from a finite set), and the value of a cell at time t depends only on the sum of the values of the cells in its neighborhood (possibly including the cell itself) at time t − 1.

    a cell in the S 000 state, given an input, will transition into the north-directed ordinary transmission state (10001) a cell in the S 00 state, given an input, will transition into the west-directed ordinary transmission state (1001) a cell in the S 0 state, given an input, will transition into the S 01 state (101)

  7. Cellularization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellularization

    This theory is also known as a theory of cellularization. It is a theory to explain the origin of the Metazoa. The idea was proposed by Hadži (1953) [4] and Hanson (1977). [13] This cellularization (syncytial) theory states that metazoans evolved from a unicellular ciliate with multiple nuclei that went through cellularization. Firstly, the ...

    Place theory is a theory of hearing that states that our perception of sound depends on where each component frequency produces vibrations along the basilar membrane.By this theory, the pitch of a sound, such as a human voice or a musical tone, is determined by the places where the membrane vibrates, based on frequencies corresponding to the tonotopic organization of the primary auditory neurons.

  9. Quantum cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_cellular_automaton

    The cells are usually taken to be identical, finite-dimensional quantum systems (e.g. each cell is a qubit). Each cell has a neighborhood of other cells. Altogether these form a network of cells, which is usually taken to be regular (e.g. the cells are arranged as a lattice with or without periodic boundary conditions).
