  2. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  3. Word equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_equation

    A natural extension is to consider Boolean formulas of word equations, [4] in which also negation and disjunction is allowed. In fact, every system (and even every Boolean formula) of word equations, is equivalent to a single word equation. [4] Thus, many results on word equations generalise immediately to such systems (resp. formulas).

  4. Floral formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_formula

    A floral formula is a notation for representing the structure of particular types of flowers. Such notations use numbers, letters and various symbols to convey significant information in a compact form.

  5. Hemicellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemicellulose

    Hemicellulose interacts with the cellulose by providing cross-linking of cellulose microfibrils: hemicellulose will search for voids in the cell wall during its formation and provide support around cellulose fibrils in order to equip the cell wall with the maximum possible strength it can provide. [7]

  6. Specific leaf area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_leaf_area

    Specific leaf area is a ratio indicating how much leaf area a plant builds with a given amount of leaf biomass: S L A = A M L {\displaystyle SLA\ =\ {\frac {A}{M_{L}}}} where A is the area of a given leaf or all leaves of a plant, and M L is the dry mass of those leaves.

    Typical size of a red blood cell [24] 10 −5: 10 μm: 10 μm Typical size of a fog, mist, or cloud water droplet 10 μm Width of transistors in the Intel 4004, the world's first commercial microprocessor: 12 μm Width of acrylic fiber: 17–181 μm Width range of human hair [25] 10 −4: 100 μm: 340 μm

  8. Plant growth analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_growth_analysis

    He applied the same mathematical formula to describe plant size over time. The equation for exponential mass growth rate in plant growth analysis is often expressed as: = ⁡ Where: M(t) is the final mass of the plant at time (t). M 0 is the initial mass of the plant.

  9. Microscopic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopic_scale

    During his studies of cork, he discovered plant cells and coined the term 'cell'. [5] Prior to the use of the micro- prefix, other terms were originally incorporated into the International metric system in 1795, such as centi-which represented a factor of 10^-2, and milli-, which represented a factor of 10^-3.
