They are lined by respiratory type (ciliated) epithelium, which is characterized by cilia. Histologically these are also composed of cartilage, smooth muscle, fibrous tissue and mucous glands. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronchogenic_cyst |
Instead of depicting the Finnic, Scandinavian, Germanic or Baltic influences, the impact of Russian tradition was emphazised. Praise to the new social order and Soviet leaders was made, while the figures of bourgeois Estonians and German landlords were allowed to be satirized. Themes that reinforced Soviet rhetoric, su... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estonian_Folklore_Archives |
The time frames they selected showed strong patterns of immigrant migration; Shaw and McKay believed that they could demonstrate whether delinquency was caused by particular immigrant groups or by the environment in which the immigrants lived: If high delinquency rates for particular immigrant groups remained high duri... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_disorganization_theory |
Lupinine has a chiral carbon atom; therefore, total syntheses of lupinine need to be enantioselective for (-)-lupinine in order to provide the biologically active product. The first racemic total synthesis of lupinine occurred in 1937 by Clemo, Morgan, and Raper. Six more total syntheses of lupinine followed between 19... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupinine |
Tensile strengths of TRIP steels are in the range of 600-960 MPa. Martensitic steels are also high in C and Mn. These are fully quenched to martensite during processing. The martensite structure is then tempered back to the appropriate strength level, adding toughness to the steel. Tensile strengths for these steels ra... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strengthening_mechanisms_of_materials |
As a result of their widespread popularity, especially in households with children, guinea pigs have shown a presence in culture and media. Some noted appearances of the animal in literature include the short story "Pigs Is Pigs" by Ellis Parker Butler, which is a tale of bureaucratic incompetence. Two guinea pigs held... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_guinea_pig |
Using mathematical terms, terminal speed—without considering buoyancy effects—is given by where V t {\displaystyle V_{t}} represents terminal velocity, m {\displaystyle m} is the mass of the falling object, g {\displaystyle g} is the acceleration due to gravity, C d {\displaystyle C_{d}} is the drag coefficient, ρ {\di... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Settling_velocity |
Internal Coordinate Mechanics (ICM) is a software program and algorithm to predict low-energy conformations of molecules by sampling the space of internal coordinates (bond lengths, bond angles and dihedral angles) defining molecular geometry. In ICM each molecule is constructed as a tree from an entry atom where each ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_Coordinate_Mechanics |
