  2. Regulation and monitoring of pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_and_monitoring...

    This noise regulation framework comprised a broad data base detailing the extent of noise health effects. Congress ended funding of the federal noise control program in 1981, which curtailed development of further national regulations. Light pollution. Light Pollution in the United States is not federally regulated.

  3. Root nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_nodule

    Nodulation is controlled by a variety of processes, both external (heat, acidic soils, drought, nitrate) and internal (autoregulation of nodulation, ethylene). Autoregulation of nodulation controls nodule numbers per plant through a systemic process involving the leaf. Leaf tissue senses the early nodulation events in the root through an ...

  4. Calvin cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_cycle

    Calvin cycle. The Calvin cycle, light-independent reactions, bio synthetic phase, dark reactions, or photosynthetic carbon reduction ( PCR) cycle [1] of photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose. The Calvin cycle is present in all photosynthetic eukaryotes and also ...

    At the top right corner is a monocular for assisting the alignment of the two heads. Free-space optical communication ( FSO) is an optical communication technology that uses light propagating in free space to wirelessly transmit data for telecommunications or computer networking. "Free space" means air, outer space, vacuum, or something similar.

  6. Dynamic light scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_light_scattering

    Different implementations of cross-correlation light scattering have been developed and applied. Currently, the most widely used scheme is the so-called 3D-dynamic light scattering method. The same method can also be used to correct static light scattering data for multiple scattering contributions.

  7. Gaps in regulation of chemical agents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaps_in_regulation_of...

    This lack of regulation has raised concerns among members of the environmental community about the hazards of these unstudied pollutants not being monitored by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), especially in light of budget cuts and bureaucratic inefficacy. General regulation of pesticides

  8. Symbiosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbiosome

    The symbiosome in a root nodule cell in a plant is an organelle-like structure that has formed in a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The plant symbiosome is unique to those plants that produce root nodules. [2] The majority of such symbioses are made between legumes and diazotrophic Rhizobia bacteria.

  9. Efflux pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efflux_pump

    An efflux pump is an active transporter in cells that moves out unwanted material. Efflux pumps are an important component in bacteria in their ability to remove antibiotics. [1] The efflux could also be the movement of heavy metals, organic pollutants, plant-produced compounds, quorum sensing signals, bacterial metabolites and ...
