Booting often involves processes such as perform self-tests, load configuration settings, loading a BIOS, resident monitors, a hypervisor, an operating system, or utility software.

The primary advantages of a pistol caliber carbine are increased accuracy due to the buttstock and longer barrel ( and with it, sight radius ), relatively low muzzle blast / flash / recoil, higher muzzle velocity and energy of a longer barrel for increased wounding potential and penetration ( depending on the particular load used ), and ( sometimes, but not always ) greater adaptability for easily accepting accessories such as optics, weaponlights, and lasers.

Other types of military ferries, such as the Soviet Plavayushij Transportyor-Srednyj, are able to load while still on land and transport other vehicles cross country and over water.

More complex formulas and procedures apply for such cases, but in its simplest form the critical buckling load formula is given as Equation ( 3 ),

Eccentricity of the load, or imperfections such as initial crookedness, decreases column strength.

As the crankshaft undergoes a great deal of sideways load from each cylinder in a multicylinder engine, it must be supported by several such bearings, not just one at each end.

A complex instruction set computer ( CISC, ) is a computer where single instructions can execute several low-level operations ( such as a load from memory, an arithmetic operation, and a memory store ) and / or are capable of multi-step operations or addressing modes within single instructions.

Some of the problems and contradictions in this terminology will perhaps disappear as more systematic terms, such as ( non ) load / store, becomes more popular and eventually replaces the imprecise and slightly counter-intuitive RISC / CISC terms.

For instance, there is no instruction to load an arbitrary “ immediate ” value into an accumulator ( although memory reference instructions do encode such a value to form an effective address ).

The erlang ( symbol E ) is a dimensionless unit that is used in telephony as a measure of offered load or carried load on service-providing elements such as telephone circuits or telephone switching equipment.

The shape is chosen to strike a balance between cost, hydrostatic considerations ( accommodation, load carrying and stability ), hydrodynamics ( speed, power requirements, and motion and behavior in a seaway ) and special considerations for the ship's role, such as the rounded bow of an icebreaker or the flat bottom of a landing craft.

The reloading of such large cartridges is also much more complex, as developing a load using a specific lot of powder can require nearly all of a 5 lb bottle of powder, and a load must be developed with but a single lot of powder for reasons of safety.

Most of the new instructions are modifications of existing instructions to handle the existence of the additional registers, such as load, store, add, and the like.

On the other hand, rolling such a large load of dice can be physically unwieldy and take a long time to add up.

Application program functions such as termination, page-up, page-down, or help can be invoked by a single key press, thereby reducing the load on very busy processors.

It may consist of a length of one or several segments of rope, string, webbing, twine, strap, or even chain interwoven such that the line can bind to itself or to some other object — the " load ".

Larger LANs also contain a wide variety of network devices such as switches, firewalls, routers, load balancers, and sensors.

CPUs are built up from a number of dedicated sub-units such as instruction decoders, ALUs ( integer arithmetics and logic ), load / store units ( handling memory ), and so on.

This allowed this CPU to load up the instruction and the data it needed in a single cycle, whereas an ( older ) non-RISC design, such as the MOS Technology 6502 for instance, required separate cycles to load the opcode and the data.

Modular operating systems such as OS-9 and most modern monolithic operating systems such as OpenVMS, Linux, BSD, and UNIX variants such as SunOS, and AIX, in addition to MULTICS, can dynamically load ( and unload ) executable modules at runtime.

the absence of such a link in the last cell indicates the end of the chain.

While cyanobacteria have been traditionally considered algae, recent works usually exclude them due to large differences such as the lack of membrane-bound organelles, the presence of a single circular chromosome, the presence of peptidoglycan in the cell walls, and ribosomes different in size and content from those of the Eukaryotes .< ref >

In certain sensory neurons ( pseudounipolar neurons ), such as those for touch and warmth, the electrical impulse travels along an axon from the periphery to the cell body, and from the cell body to the spinal cord along another branch of the same axon.

For example, some resistance-modifying agents may inhibit multidrug resistance mechanisms, such as drug efflux from the cell, thus increasing the susceptibility of bacteria to an antibacterial.

Dying cells that undergo the final stages of apoptosis display phagocytotic molecules, such as phosphatidylserine, on their cell surface.

These molecules mark the cell for phagocytosis by cells possessing the appropriate receptors, such as macrophages.

Finally, a caspase 3 knock-out was characterized by ectopic cell masses in the brain and abnormal apoptotic features such as membrane blebbing or nuclear fragmentation.

A discussion of every disease caused by modification of the various apoptotic pathways would be impractical, but the concept overlying each one is the same: the normal functioning of the pathway has been disrupted in such a way as to impair the ability of the cell to undergo normal apoptosis.

* Expression of viral proteins coupled to MHC proteins on the surface of the infected cell, allowing recognition by cells of the immune system ( such as Natural Killer and cytotoxic T cells ) that then induce the infected cell to undergo apoptosis.

Gianfranco Fini, a moderniser who sees Nicolas Sarkozy and David Cameron as models, impressed an ambitious political line to the party, combining the pillars of conservative ideology like security, family values and patriotism with a progressive approach in other areas such as stem cell research and supporting voting rights for legal aliens.

These techniques allowed for the discovery and detailed analysis of many molecules and metabolic pathways of the cell, such as glycolysis and the Krebs cycle ( citric acid cycle ).

Fundamental life processes such as cell division and protein synthesis can be studied using plants without the moral issues that come with conducting studies upon animals or humans.

Plasma membranes can also form different types of " supramembrane " structures such as caveola, postsynaptic density, podosome, invadopodium, desmosome, hemidesmosome, focal adhesion, and cell junctions.

Some components of membranes play a key role in medicine, such as the efflux pumps that pump drugs out of a cell.

Bistability is key for understanding basic phenomena of cellular functioning, such as decision-making processes in cell cycle progression, cellular differentiation, and apoptosis.

It is within the cytoplasm that most cellular activities occur, such as many metabolic pathways including glycolysis, and processes such as cell division.

A huge range of inclusions exist in different cell types, and range from crystals of calcium oxalate or silicon dioxide in plants, to granules of energy-storage materials such as starch, glycogen, or polyhydroxybutyrate.

Algal cell walls contain either polysaccharides ( such as cellulose ( a glucan )) or a variety of glycoproteins ( Volvocales ) or both.

Unlike fungi, oomycetes typically possess cell walls of cellulose and glucans rather than chitin, although some genera ( such as Achlya and Saprolegnia ) do have chitin in their walls.

Appreciating the similarities and differences between cell types is particularly important to the fields of cell and molecular biology as well as to biomedical fields such as cancer research and developmental biology.

In some algae ( such as the heterokonts and other protists such as Euglenozoa and Cercozoa ), chloroplasts seem to have evolved through a secondary event of endosymbiosis, in which a eukaryotic cell engulfed a second eukaryotic cell containing chloroplasts, forming chloroplasts with three or four membrane layers.
