" In the 36 propositions that follow, Euclid relates the apparent size of an object to its distance from the eye and investigates the apparent shapes of cylinders and cones when viewed from different angles.

Hyperbolae in the physical world: three cones of light of different widths and intensities are generated by a ( roughly ) downwards-pointing halogen lamp and its holder.

In this sense, the orange appearance of objects is simply the result of light from the object entering our eye and stimulating the relevant kinds of cones simultaneously but to different degrees.

There are three forms of teeth, coniform cones, ramiform bars, and pectiniform platforms, which may have performed different roles.

Humans have three different types of cones ( trichromatic vision ) while most other mammals lack cones with red sensitive pigment and therefore have poorer ( dichromatic ) color vision.

High frequency dispersion is somewhat different for this approach than for whizzer cones.

Although the light cones are the same for all observers at a given spacetime event, different observers, with differing velocities but coincident at the event ( point ) in the spacetime, have world lines that cross each other at an angle determined by their relative velocities, and thus the present hypersurface is different for them.

This is because both rods and cones are active at once in the eye, with each having different sensitivity spectra and rod photoreceptor cells taking over gradually from cone cells as the brightness of the scene is reduced.

Further development of the conical sections, adding canopies and fuselage areas, led to the " osculating cones waverider ", which develops several conical shock waves at different points on the body, blending them to produce a single shaped shock.

Volcanic cones are of different types, depending upon the nature and size of the fragments ejected during the eruption.

In humans, there are three types of cones sensitive to three different spectra, resulting in trichromatic color vision.

Two events at different locations, at the same time ( according to a specific frame of reference ), are always outside of each other's past and future light cones ; light cannot travel instantaneously.

Other observers, of course, might see the events happening at different times and at different locations, but one way or another, the two events will likewise be seen to be outside of each other's cones.

A fundamentally different type of automatic transmission is the continuously variable transmission or CVT, which can smoothly and steplessly alter its gear ratio by varying the diameter of a pair of belt or chain-linked pulleys, wheels or cones.

These forms also vary in terms of bill size and structure, and specialise on the seed cones of different species of conifer.

Remarkably different from state to state, the volcanism ranges from sparse but large volcanoes to extensive zones of smaller activity such as lava shields and cinder cones.

Three different classes of photopsins in the cones react to different ranges of light frequency, a differentiation that allows the visual system to calculate color.

The photoreceptor proteins in the three types of cones differ in their sensitivity to photons of different wavelengths ( see graph ).

Transducin ( G < sub > t </ sub >) is a heterotrimeric G protein with three polypeptide chains characterized into two subunits: α, β and γ. Transducin is naturally expressed in vertebrate retina rods and cones, with different α subunits in rod and cone photoreceptors.

Humans and closely related primates normally have three types of cone cells and are therefore trichromats ( animals with three different cones ).

Their eyes include three different kinds of cones, each containing a different photopigment ( opsin ).
