Polar distribution — In probability theory, the polar distribution is the probability distribution of angles occurring in a set of two dimensional vectors, denoted by :p(phi).,It is usually graphically represented as a closed curve :(x,y) = (rcosphi, , rsinphi)… … Wikipedia
Main lobe — A polar antenna radiation diagram. The radial distance from the center represents signal strength. The main lobe, or main beam, of an antenna radiation pattern is the lobe containing the maximum power. This is the lobe that exhibits the greatest… … Wikipedia
South Polar dinosaurs — During the Early Cretaceous the continent of Australia was still linked to Antarctica as a remnant of Gondwana that had rifted from Africa and drifted southward. Much of this southern continent lay inside the Antarctic Circle, and the climate… … Wikipedia
Cleavage (embryo) — In embryology, cleavage is the division of cells in the early embryo. The zygotes of many species undergo rapid cell cycles with no significant growth, producing a cluster of cells the same size as the original zygote. The different cells derived … Wikipedia
mosaic egg — At one time a distinction was drawn between those organisms in which the egg seemed to have a firmly committed fate map built in and regulating embryos. In the former, after the first cleavage one blastomere was committed to produce one set of… … Dictionary of molecular biology
Artery — A vessel that carries blood that is high in oxygen content away from the heart to the farthest reaches of the body. Since blood in arteries is usually full of oxygen, the hemoglobin in the red blood cells is oxygenated. The resultant form of… … Medical dictionary
Radiation pattern — Three dimensional antenna radiation patterns. The radial distance from the origin in any direction represents the strength of radiation emitted in that direction. The top shows the directive pattern of a horn antenna, the bottom shows the… … Wikipedia
