Worldwide, aquatic foods are available every season and are produced in a wide variety. Over 2,370 species are harvested from wild fisheries, and about 624 are farmed in aquaculture. Fish powder for infants, fish wafers for snacks, and fish chutneys have all been developed because marine foods are nutrient-dense. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_food |
According to a legend the Italian duchess Catherine de' Medici is said to have introduced flavored sorbet ices to France when she brought some Italian chefs with her to France upon marrying the Duke of Orléans (Henry II of France) in 1533.

This model explains the ability of KcsA to simultaneous select for K+ ions while also gating electrical conductance. In 2011, the crystal structure of full length KcsA was resolved to reveal that hindrance by the previously truncated residues permits only straightforward expansion of the intercellular ion passage regio... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KcsA_potassium_channel |
For ten years Disney worked in collaborating with McDonald's, promoting the latest Disney films throughout the McDonald's Happy Meals. The connection between toys and fast food for young children creates a fun experience.

A diagnostic test is a procedure performed to confirm or determine the presence of disease in an individual suspected of having a disease, usually following the report of symptoms, or based on other medical test results. This includes posthumous diagnosis. Examples of such tests are: Using nuclear medicine to examine a... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_vitro_diagnostics |
Artificial islands are an example of land reclamation. Creating an artificial island is an expensive and risky undertaking. It is often considered in places with high population density and a scarcity of flat land. Kansai International Airport (in Osaka) and Hong Kong International Airport are examples where this proce... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_fill |
At high concentrations, the ytterbium-doped materials show photodarkening (glass fibers) or even a switch to broadband emission (crystals and ceramics) instead of efficient laser action. This effect may be related with not only overheating, but also with conditions of charge compensation at high concentrations of ytter... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ytterbium |
Eberlein–Šmulian theorem: If X is a Banach space and A is a subset of X, then the following statements are equivalent: each sequence of elements of A has a subsequence that is weakly convergent in X each sequence of elements of A has a weak cluster point in X the weak closure of A is weakly compact.A set A can be weakl... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eberlein–Šmulian_theorem |
They are p {\displaystyle p} -adic analogues of Q l {\displaystyle \mathbf {Q} _{l}} -adic étale sheaves, introduced by Grothendieck (1966a) and Berthelot & Ogus (1983) (though the definition of isocrystal only appears in part II of this paper by Ogus (1984)). Convergent isocrystals are a variation of isocrystals that ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_(mathematics) |
A modulator-demodulator or modem is a computer hardware device that converts data from a digital format into a format suitable for an analog transmission medium such as telephone or radio. A modem transmits data by modulating one or more carrier wave signals to encode digital information, while the receiver demodulates... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_modem |
The game concept used in Kahoot! started out as an idea of Professor Alf Inge Wang, at the Department for Computer Science at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in 2006. He developed multiple prototypes that were developed and tested in experiments conducted in collaboration with master students. The id... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahoot! |
Given a Lie group action ( G , σ ) {\displaystyle (G,\sigma )} on a manifold M, if Go is the stabilizer of a point o (isotropy subgroup at o), then, for each g in Go, σ g: M → M {\displaystyle \sigma _{g}:M\to M} fixes o and thus taking the derivative at o gives the map ( d σ g ) o: T o M → T o M . {\displaystyle (d\si... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropy_representation |
