Law of Segregation (biology definition):one of the Mendelian Laws of Inheritance stating that the two members of a pair ofallelesseparate duringgameteformation. Consequently, each gamete contains only one member of every pair of genes.Synonym:Law of Purity of Gametes.Compare:Law of Independent Asso...
In the explanation ofMendel’s law, there are many commonly used terms that can confuse people. We will take some space to explain them in brief. Mendel chose to work with pea plants for his experiments. He tested how different traits of the pea plant, such as the color of the flowers,...
in biology, the process of ordering, coordinating, and uniting the structures and functions of an integral organism, a process that is characteristic of living systems at every level of organization. The concept of integration was introduced in 1857 by the English scientist H. Spencer, who connect...
Chromosomal segregation errors result in aneuploidy, an imbalance in the amount of genetic content that can be at the level of an entire chromosome or only a segment (Pfau & Amon, 2012). From:Current Topics in Developmental Biology,2023 ...
Although we have mostly focused here on the time to find a certain ethnic group, irrespective of its relative abundance, one can refine the analysis by using an appropriate definition of the node quantity φi,t to take this aspect into account, e.g., by setting it equal to the vector ...
What we call swarm or swarming behavior was consistent with the definition provided by Downes [16], i.e. a constant up-and-down or to-and-from flight at a particular station and within constant bound- aries of a single individual or several individuals. In the laboratory, about 5 min ...

A single component system would by definition have a linear relationship to mechanics while a system with tens of moving parts would be effectively reduced to an additive relationship between changes in component morphology and overlying function. Another possibility is that because researchers often ...
Specifically, definition of α as invariant for a given tissue is robust within a recovery threshold of 20–70 cells; outside of this range, α estimation might be unreliable, and values outside of this range should therefore not be used with this model. Also, the recovery threshold will ...
