  2. Cleavage (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_(geology)

    The development of cleavage foliation involves a combination of various mechanisms dependent on the rocks composition, tectonic processes, and metamorphic conditions. The magnitude and orientation of stress coupled with pressure and temperature conditions determine how a mineral is deformed.

  3. Cleavage (embryo) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_(embryo)

    In embryology, cleavage is the division of cells in the early development of the embryo, following fertilization. [1] The zygotes of many species undergo rapid cell cycles with no significant overall growth, producing a cluster of cells the same size as the original zygote.

    A woman's cleavage. Cleavage is the narrow depression or hollow between the breasts of a woman. The superior portion of cleavage may be accentuated by clothing such as a low-cut neckline that exposes the division, and often the term is used to describe the low neckline itself, instead of the term décolletage.

    Noticing a bit more cleavage at work? You're not aloneNo matter where they are, women seem to be showing off their cleavage more than ever before by wearing plunging necklines and tight tops. Is ...

  6. Animal embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_embryonic_development

    Because cleavage is impeded in the vegetal pole, there is an uneven distribution and size of cells, being more numerous and smaller at the animal pole of the zygote. [8] [9] In holoblastic eggs, the first cleavage always occurs along the vegetal-animal axis of the egg, and the second cleavage is perpendicular to the first.

  7. Langer's lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langer's_lines

    Langer's lines, Langer lines of skin tension, or sometimes called cleavage lines, are topological lines drawn on a map of the human body. They are parallel to the natural orientation of collagen fibers in the dermis, and generally parallel to the underlying muscle fibers. Langer's lines have relevance to forensic science and the development of ...

  8. Cell fate determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_fate_determination

    Also, one cell could contain more than one nucleus due to fusion of multiple uninuclear cells. As a result, the variable cleavage of the cells will make the cells hard to be committed or determined to one cell fate. [23] At the end of cellularization, the autonomously specified cells become distinguished from the conditionally specified once.

  9. Fragmentation (mass spectrometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(mass...

    Cleavage occurs when the radical and an odd electron from the bonds adjacent to the radical migrate to form a bond between the alpha carbon and either the heteroatom or the unsaturated functional group. The sigma bond breaks; hence this cleavage is also known as homolytic bond cleavage or α-cleavage. [2]
