  2. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A least common multiple of a and b is a common multiple that is minimal, in the sense that for any other common multiple n of a and b, m divides n. In general, two elements in a commutative ring can have no least common multiple or more than one. However, any two least common multiples of the same pair of elements are associates. [10]

  3. Photosynthetic efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency

    Naturally present in certain cyanobacteria, these chlorophylls enable photosynthesis with far-red light that standard chlorophylls a and b cannot utilize. By adapting these pigments for use in higher plants, it is hoped that plants can be engineered to utilize a wider range of the light spectrum, potentially leading to increased growth rates ...

  4. Rapid plant movement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_plant_movement

    These rapid plant movements differ from the more common, but much slower "growth-movements" of plants, called tropisms. Tropisms encompass movements that lead to physical, permanent alterations of the plant while rapid plant movements are usually reversible or occur over a shorter span of time.

  5. Photosynthetic capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_capacity

    For example, in high carbon dioxide concentrations or in low light, the plant is not able to regenerate ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate fast enough (also known RUBP, the acceptor molecule in photosynthetic carbon reduction). So in this case, photosynthetic capacity is limited by electron transport of the light reaction, which generates the NADPH and ...

    LCM may refer to: Computing and mathematics. Latent class model, a concept in statistics; Least common multiple, a function of two integers; Living Computer Museum;

  7. Landau's function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landau's_function

    In mathematics, Landau's function g(n), named after Edmund Landau, is defined for every natural number n to be the largest order of an element of the symmetric group S n. Equivalently, g ( n ) is the largest least common multiple (lcm) of any partition of n , or the maximum number of times a permutation of n elements can be recursively applied ...

  8. Crassulacean acid metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crassulacean_acid_metabolism

    The pineapple is an example of a CAM plant.. Crassulacean acid metabolism, also known as CAM photosynthesis, is a carbon fixation pathway that evolved in some plants as an adaptation to arid conditions [1] that allows a plant to photosynthesize during the day, but only exchange gases at night.

  9. Lowest common denominator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_denominator

    Here, 36 is the least common multiple of 12 and 18. Their product, 216, is also a common denominator, but calculating with that denominator involves larger numbers:
