  2. Oospore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oospore

    An oospore is a thick-walled sexual spore that develops from a fertilized oosphere in some algae, fungi, and oomycetes. [1] They are believed to have evolved either through the fusion of two species or the chemically induced stimulation of mycelia , leading to oospore formation.

  4. Egg cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egg_cell

    A nonmotile female gamete formed in the oogonium of some algae, fungi, oomycetes, or bryophytes is an oosphere. [2] When fertilized, the oosphere becomes the oospore. [clarification needed] When egg and sperm fuse during fertilisation, a diploid cell (the zygote) is formed, which rapidly grows into a new organism.

  5. Noosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noosphere

    [2] [3] The noosphere represents the highest stage of biospheric development, that of humankind's rational activities. [4] The word is derived from the Greek νόος ("nous, mind, reason") and σφαῖρα ("sphere"), in lexical analogy to "atmosphere" and "biosphere". [5] The concept cannot be accredited to a single author.

    The antheridia will then form fertilization tubes connecting the antheridial cytoplasm with each oosphere within the oogonia. A haploid nucleus (gamete) from the antheridium will then be transferred through the fertilization tube into the oosphere, and fuse with the oosphere's haploid nucleus forming a diploid oospore.

  7. Biosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biosphere

    Regarding energy, it is an open system, with photosynthesis capturing solar energy at a rate of around 100 terawatts. [2] By the most general biophysiological definition, the biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere ...

  8. Earth–ionosphere waveguide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth–ionosphere_waveguide

    [2] [5] In reality, the electron density of the D-layer increases with altitude, and the wave is bounded as shown in Figure 2. The sum of ground wave and first hop wave displays an interference pattern with interference minima if the difference between the ray paths of ground and first sky wave is half a wavelength (or a phase difference of 180°).

  9. Ionosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionosphere

    Relationship of the atmosphere and ionosphere. The ionosphere (/ aɪ ˈ ɒ n ə ˌ s f ɪər /) [1] [2] is the ionized part of the upper atmosphere of Earth, from about 48 km (30 mi) to 965 km (600 mi) above sea level, [3] a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere.
