  2. Adjusting entries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjusting_entries

    In accounting, adjusting entries are journal entries usually made at the end of an accounting period to allocate income and expenditure to the period in which they actually occurred. The revenue recognition principle is the basis of making adjusting entries that pertain to unearned and accrued revenues under accrual-basis accounting .

  3. Allostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allostasis

    Allostasis (/ˌɑːloʊˈsteɪsɪs/) is a physiological mechanism of regulation in which an organism anticipates and adjusts its energy use according to environmental demands.

  4. Steady state (biochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_state_(biochemistry)

    In biochemistry, steady state refers to the maintenance of constant internal concentrations of molecules and ions in the cells and organs of living systems. [1] Living organisms remain at a dynamic steady state where their internal composition at both cellular and gross levels are relatively constant, but different from equilibrium concentrations. [1]

  5. Homeostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeostasis

    In biology, homeostasis (British also homoeostasis; / h ɒ m i oʊ ˈ s t eɪ s ɪ s,-m i ə-/ hoh-mee-oh-STAY-sis) is the state of steady internal physical and chemical conditions maintained by living systems. [1]

  6. Biochemical cascade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemical_cascade

    This leads to a short G1 phase of the cell cycle with rapid G1-S transition and little dependence on mitogenic signals or D cyclins for S phase entry. In fetal stem cells, mitogens promote a relatively rapid G1-S transition through cooperative action of cyclin D-CDK4/6 and cyclin E-CDK2 to inactivate Rb family proteins. p16 Ink4a and p19 Arf ...

  7. Analysis of covariance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_covariance

    Mathematically, ANCOVA decomposes the variance in the DV into variance explained by the CV(s), variance explained by the categorical IV, and residual variance. Intuitively, ANCOVA can be thought of as 'adjusting' the DV by the group means of the CV(s). [1] The ANCOVA model assumes a linear relationship between the response (DV) and covariate (CV):

  8. Lotka–Volterra equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotka–Volterra_equations

    The same set of equations was published in 1926 by Vito Volterra, a mathematician and physicist, who had become interested in mathematical biology. [13] [18] [19] Volterra's enquiry was inspired through his interactions with the marine biologist Umberto D'Ancona, who was courting his daughter at the time and later was to become his son-in-law.

  9. Prior probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prior_probability

    An informative prior expresses specific, definite information about a variable. An example is a prior distribution for the temperature at noon tomorrow. A reasonable approach is to make the prior a normal distribution with expected value equal to today's noontime temperature, with variance equal to the day-to-day variance of atmospheric temperature, or a distribution of the temperature for ...
