  2. Study of animal locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Study_of_animal_locomotion

    There are many ways to align steps, the following are a few useful methods. Stretch step: steps of variable durations may be stretched to the same duration. Step phase: the phase of each step can be computed which quantifies how far through the step each data point is. This normalizes the data by step length, allowing data from steps of ...

  3. Biomechanics of sprint running - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomechanics_of_sprint_running

    In this case, motor coordination refers to the ability to coordinate muscle movements in order to optimize a physical action, so submaximal coordination indicates that the muscles are no longer activating in sync with one another. The results of the study showed that a delay between the vastus lateralis (VL) and biceps femoris (BF) muscles ...

  4. Cell fate determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_fate_determination

    Within the field of developmental biology, one goal is to understand how a particular cell develops into a final cell type, known as fate determination. Within an embryo, several processes play out at the cellular and tissue level to create an organism.

  5. G1 phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G1_phase

    Within the cell cycle, there is a stringent set of regulations known as the cell cycle control system that controls the timing and coordination of the phases to ensure a correct order of events. Biochemical triggers known as cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) switch on cell cycles events at the corrected time and in the correct order to prevent ...

  6. Flux (metabolism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metabolism)

    It is easiest to describe the flux of metabolites through a pathway by considering the reaction steps individually. The flux of the metabolites through each reaction (J) is the rate of the forward reaction (V f), less that of the reverse reaction (V r): [2] = At equilibrium, there is no flux. Furthermore, it is observed that throughout a steady ...

  7. Cell growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_growth

    Cell growth refers to an increase in the total mass of a cell, including both cytoplasmic, nuclear and organelle volume. [1] Cell growth occurs when the overall rate of cellular biosynthesis (production of biomolecules or anabolism) is greater than the overall rate of cellular degradation (the destruction of biomolecules via the proteasome, lysosome or autophagy, or catabolism).

  8. Coordination number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_number

    The most common coordination number for d-block transition metal complexes is 6. The coordination number does not distinguish the geometry of such complexes, i.e. octahedral vs trigonal prismatic. For transition metal complexes, coordination numbers range from 2 (e.g., Au I in Ph 3 PAuCl) to 9 (e.g., Re VII in [ReH 9] 2−).

  9. Consensus sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_sequence

    Developing software for pattern recognition is a major topic in genetics, molecular biology, and bioinformatics.Specific sequence motifs can function as regulatory sequences controlling biosynthesis, or as signal sequences that direct a molecule to a specific site within the cell or regulate its maturation.
