  2. Developmental bioelectricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developmental_bioelectricity

    Developmental bioelectricity is a sub-discipline of biology, related to, but distinct from, neurophysiology and bioelectromagnetics.Developmental bioelectricity refers to the endogenous ion fluxes, transmembrane and transepithelial voltage gradients, and electric currents and fields produced and sustained in living cells and tissues.

  3. Inductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductor

    An inductor, also called a coil, choke, or reactor, is a passive two-terminal electrical component that stores energy in a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it. [1] An inductor typically consists of an insulated wire wound into a coil .

  4. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    Electromagnetic induction has found many applications, including electrical components such as inductors and transformers, and devices such as electric motors and generators. History Faraday's experiment showing induction between coils of wire: The liquid battery (right) provides a current that flows through the small coil (A) , creating a ...

  5. Henry (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_(unit)

    The henry (symbol: H) is the unit of electrical inductance in the International System of Units (SI). [1] If a current of 1 ampere flowing through a coil produces flux linkage of 1 weber turn, that coil has a self-inductance of 1 henry.‌ The unit is named after Joseph Henry (1797–1878), the American scientist who discovered electromagnetic induction independently of and at about the same ...

  6. Bioelectromagnetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectromagnetics

    Bioelectromagnetics, also known as bioelectromagnetism, is the study of the interaction between electromagnetic fields and biological entities. Areas of study include electromagnetic fields produced by living cells, tissues or organisms, the effects of man-made sources of electromagnetic fields like mobile phones, and the application of electromagnetic radiation toward therapies for the ...

  7. Inductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductance

    The history of electromagnetic induction, a facet of electromagnetism, began with observations of the ancients: electric charge or static electricity (rubbing silk on amber), electric current , and magnetic attraction . Understanding the unity of these forces of nature, and the scientific theory of electromagnetism was initiated and achieved ...

  8. Synthetic biological circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_biological_circuit

    The goal of synthetic biology is to generate an array of tunable and characterized parts, or modules, with which any desirable synthetic biological circuit can be easily designed and implemented. [2] These circuits can serve as a method to modify cellular functions, create cellular responses to environmental conditions, or influence cellular ...

  9. Inductive effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_effect

    In Organic chemistry, the inductive effect in a molecule is a local change in the electron density due to electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups elsewhere in the molecule, resulting in a permanent dipole in a bond. [1] It is present in a σ (sigma) bond, unlike the electromeric effect which is present in a π (pi) bond.
