  2. Umbilical point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbilical_point

    A point p in a Riemannian submanifold is umbilical if, at p, the (vector-valued) Second fundamental form is some normal vector tensor the induced metric (First fundamental form). Equivalently, for all vectors U , V at p , II( U , V ) = g p ( U , V ) ν {\displaystyle \nu } , where ν {\displaystyle \nu } is the mean curvature vector at p .

    the umbilical region is located around the navel; the coxal region encompassing the lateral (side) of hips; the pubic region encompassing the area above the genitals. The pelvis and legs contain, from superior to inferior, the inguinal or groin region between the thigh and the abdomen, the pubic region surrounding the genitals,

  4. Macula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macula

    The macula (/ˈmakjʊlə/) [1] or macula lutea is an oval-shaped pigmented area in the center of the retina of the human eye and in other animals. The macula in humans has a diameter of around 5.5 mm (0.22 in) and is subdivided into the umbo, foveola, foveal avascular zone, fovea, parafovea, and perifovea areas.

    Blue eyes are also found in southern Europe, Central Asia, South Asia, North Africa and West Asia. [58] [59] Approximately 8% to 10% of the global population have blue eyes. [35] A 2002 study found that the prevalence of blue eye color among the white population in the United States to be 33.8% for those born from 1936 through 1951.

    The shape also has a single external face. A cross section of the surface forms a deltoid. The umbilic torus occurs in the mathematical subject of singularity theory, in particular in the classification of umbilical points which are determined by real cubic forms + + +. The equivalence classes of such cubics form a three-dimensional real ...

  7. Globe (human eye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globe_(human_eye)

    The globe of the eye, or bulbus oculi, is the frontmost sensory organ of the human ocular system, going from the cornea at the front, to the anterior part of the optic nerve at the back. More simply, the eyeball itself, as well as the ganglion cells in the retina that eventually transmit visual signals through the optic nerve. [1]

  8. “The eye is bright red, fire-red or deep red in specimens of both sexes,” according to the study. The pitviper’s red eyes stand out against the green landscape and black night.

  9. Geodesics on an ellipsoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesics_on_an_ellipsoid

    A single geodesic does not fill an area on the ellipsoid. All tangents to umbilical geodesics touch the confocal hyperbola that intersects the ellipsoid at the umbilic points. Umbilical geodesic enjoy several interesting properties. Through any point on the ellipsoid, there are two umbilical geodesics.
