[O] is the symbol for the concentration of oxygen in the particular substance. So you would be detecting not only the presence of oxygen, but also how much is present.\nThis symbol is also used for 'oxygen radical' or an unpaired oxygen atom.

It's a measure of energy where one electron volt is equal to 1.6 x 10^-19 Joules or 0.00000000000000000016 Joules.\n\nIt is the energy required to move an electron along a potential difference of 1 volt

Osmotic pressure or turgor (also called turgor pressure) is the pressure produced by a solution in a space that is enclosed by a differentially permeable membrane.\n\nWhen a biological cell is in a hypotonic environment (the cell interior contains a lower concentration of water than its exterior), water flows across the cell membrane into the cell, causing it to expand. The membrane (or, in plant cells, the cell wall) restricts the expansion, which causes an increase in pressure. The resulting pressure is called turgor. This pressure is what prevents more water from flowing into the cell, thus creating a pressure equilibrium between water flowing down the concentration gradient and the taut membrane pushing back. In this example, the equilibrium prevents the cell from ever becoming isotonic to its environment. Cells not adapted to hypotonic environments, with the flow of water into them but no strong membrane or cell wall, will burst. The osmotic pressure π of a dilute solution can be calculated using the formula\n\n pi = MRT\n \nwhere\n\nM is the molarity \nR is the gas constant \nT is the absolute temperature \nNote the similarity of the above formula to the ideal gas law, and also that osmotic pressure is not dependant on particle charge.

The sum of the chemical reactions that take place within each cell of a living organism and that provide energy for vital processes and for synthesizing new organic material.\n\nMy Adice to you: You seem to be doing a researh of some scientific sort. I recommend you take advantage of the internet which could help you in this regard. Try accessing an online Encyclopedia.\n\nGood Luck!

a spectrum analyser shows the sinusoidal components that make up a waveform.  an oscilliscope creates a representation of the waveform itself showing amplitude variation over time.\n\nEssentially the difference is one shows the whole waveform and the other breaks it up into parts or components

Oscillation is a periodic movement which involves to and fro motion, when u suspend a particle or object from a certain height.\nFor ex.- Movement of pendulumn\n\nVibration is also a periodic movement that takes place vigorously at fixed position(either up and down or sideways).For ex.-when u beat a steel plate forcefully, u observe the movement in plate, ththat is vibration. And best of luck for ur classes and enjoy studies especially science.

It's a warning to the people around them not to touch the body because if they do when they are shocking the pt then they will get the shock too and it could very possibly stop their heart. It's crazy in real life when you are using a defibrillator. People are running around trying to get stuff for the pt and someone is always at the head providing o2 so if you don't say it some one will touch him and then you have 2 patients in cardiac arrest. Does that help?

Reactance, like resistance, tells you how a capacitor responds (reacts) to a current or voltage. From the reactance, you can find the V/I relationship. It is defined as X=1/wC where w is the radian frequency and C is the capacitance of the circuit.\n\nIt will be better if you can let us know your education level and we can describe according to your need.\n\nhttp://www.kodkodkod.com/database.htm\nhttp://www.kodkodkod.com/index_files/submitquestion.htm\n\nRegards,\n\nKodKodKod Learning Consulting

stasis\n\nbut the word is more of a scientific word e.g\n\ncell stasis (stopped dividing/growing)\n\n\n"The term stasis has several meanings:\n\nA state of stability, in which all forces are equal and opposing, therefore they cancel out each other. \nIn medicine, stasis means the state in which the normal flow of a body liquid stops, for example the flow of blood through vessels or of intestinal contents through the digestive tract. \nIn science fiction, the concept of stasis implies an artificial pause that stops all physical and chemical processes, including those of life; they resume as if uninterrupted as soon as the stasis is ended. \nIn music, it is a technique or form used in minimalist music, and also any other style that may use slow musical development. \nIn the punctuated equilibrium model of evolutionary biology, stasis is a period of little or no evolutionary change in a species. "\n\n\nif you want to use a noun for static , like in this example\n\n(if there is a conductor, then electricity loses it's \n(static)  )\n\ni dont think stasis would do in this case , so i think in general you can use  \n(static property)\n\nso the sentence would read:\n(if there is a conductor, then electricity loses it's \n static property. )

Both inhibition and stimulation begin with the same action, release of some signal from a presynaptic neuron onto a postsynaptic neuron.  In most cases, this is a chemical signal where the presynaptic neuron releases small amounts of neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft between the pre and postysnaptic neurons.  The neurotransmitter then binds to a receptor on the postsynaptic membrane which then leads to some change in the postsynaptic neuron.  This change could be immediate (opening and/or closing of channels in the membrane) or delayed (activation of some chemical cascade within the neuron).\n\nGenerally, inhibition of a postsynaptic neuron occurs when these changes result in a decrease in the likelihood that the postsynaptic cell will fire an action potential.  This could be by increasing the polarization of the cell membrane or by interfering with processes/channels that would otherwise cause the cell to depolarize.\n\nExcitatation of a postsynaptic neuron is when the effect of the cell causes the cell to increase it's likelihood of firing either by opening channels that cause the balance of ions on either side of the membrane to become less polarized, or by decreasing the threshold required for the cell to fire an action potential.\n\nIt is important to recognize that the neurotransmitter does not determine if the presynaptic effect on the postsynaptic neuron is either excitatory or inhibitory, but rather the events that follow neurotransmitter binding to the postsynaptic receptor.  In other words, the chemical doesn't determine what happens to the cell, the action of the receptor does.
