There are 2 major categories of IUGR: symmetrical and asymmetrical.

In the federal ( bicameral ) kingdom of Belgium, there is a curious asymmetrical constellation serving as directly elected legislatures for three " territorial " regions — Flanders ( Dutch ), Brussels ( bilingual, certain peculiarities of competence, also the only region not comprising any of the 10 provinces ) and Wallonia ( French )— and three cultural communities — Flemish ( Dutch, competent in Flanders and for the Dutch-speaking inhabitants of Brussels ), Francophone ( French, for Wallonia and for Francophones in Brussels ) and German ( for speakers of that language in a few designated municipalities in the east of the Walloon Region, living alongside Francophones but under two different regimes )

At least some of the species also have adaptations in their behavior to enable them to approach potential hosts They also have an adaptation of the jaw that enables them to lash out sideways in passing a victim ; the jaw is asymmetrical, and there is continuous selection for the asymmetry that currently is less frequent in the population, because host fishes are more alert to defend themselves on the side on which they have been attacked in the past.

In the poem Le Chevalier Délibéré written by Olivier de la Marche and first published in 1486, there is an anonymous woodcut depicting a knight carrying a rather simple morning star with spikes mounted in an asymmetrical pattern as well as a flail equipped with a single spiked ball, known in German as a " Kettenmorgenstern " ( literally chain-morning star ) which is technically a military flail.

In 1950, he described this system: ' The unifying element of fixed pattern is present, but the pattern itself is asymmetrical, therefore with a powerful means of satisfying structural requirements there would seem to be possible both a greater variety and a greater subtlety in the rhythm-metre relationship '.

In the case of asymmetrical ethers there are two possibilities for the choice of reactants, and one is usually preferable either on the basis of availability or reactivity.

In the past few years there has been a resurgence of the asymmetrical hair cut with a contemporary spin.

The symmetrical and asymmetrical structures show that there is a significant difference in ligand-receptor interactions and p75 ( NRT ) conformations.

With asymmetrical power, there is often evidence of the manipulation of traditions.

While there are no formal medical definitions of labia minora hypertrophy ( e. g. length, width, girth ), labiaplasty alters the condition wherein a woman presents labia minora that are disproportionately greater than her labia majora ; the labioplastic alteration of the proportions creates less asymmetrical labia minora that are aesthetically satisfactory to the women who undergo the procedure.

Additional excerpts from what Bernstein said at the University of Nebraska include, that there " has been an asymmetrical war – you might call it a war of attrition in different ways involving Israel – not only with Palestinians but sometimes involving other Arab states, but of course, involving Iran and its non-state proxies Hezbollah and Hamas.

The observations show that the cloud is asymmetrical and matches the pattern of X-ray binaries ( binary star systems containing black holes or neutron stars ), mostly on one side of the galactic center.

* Single-ended output stages ( be they tube or transistor ) have an asymmetrical transfer function, meaning that even order harmonics in the created distortion tend not to be canceled ( as they are in push – pull output stages ); by using tubes OR FETs most of the distortion is from the square law transfer characteristic and so second-order, which some consider to be " warmer " and more pleasant.

If drain-to-source voltage is increased, this creates a significant asymmetrical change in the shape of the channel due to a gradient of voltage potential from source to drain.

In times of asymmetrical warfare, local crises, and urban combat, the IFV is more important than ever.

In contrast, in Germany, the relation between individual employees and employers is considered to be asymmetrical.

The most massive collection of molecular clouds in the galaxy forms an asymmetrical ring around the galactic center at a radius of 120 parsecs ; the largest component of this ring is the Sagittarius B2 complex.

Olympus Mons is asymmetrical structurally as well as topographically.

In RA, the joints are often affected in a fairly symmetrical fashion, although this is not specific, and the initial presentation may be asymmetrical.

The recognition site is asymmetrical and is composed of two specific portions — one containing 3 – 4 nucleotides, and another containing 4 – 5 nucleotides — separated by a non-specific spacer of about 6 – 8 nucleotides.

Even though the central government has progressively transferred roughly the same amount of competences to all communities, devolution is still asymmetrical.

However, strong topographic contrast is produced by collecting back-scattered electrons from one side above the specimen using an asymmetrical, directional BSE detector ; the resulting contrast appears as illumination of the topography from that side.

However, this scenario can be resolved within the standard framework of special relativity ( because the twins are not equivalent ; the space twin experienced additional, asymmetrical acceleration when switching direction to return home ), and therefore is not a paradox in the sense of a logical contradiction.

In those Continental contexts where Rococo is fully in control, sportive, fantastic, and sculptured forms are expressed with abstract ornament using flaming, leafy or shell-like textures in asymmetrical sweeps and flourishes and broken curves ; intimate Rococo interiors suppress architectonic divisions of architrave, frieze, and cornice for the picturesque, the curious, and the whimsical, expressed in plastic materials like carved wood and above all stucco ( as in the work of the Wessobrunner School ).

For an antenna with asymmetrical current distribution, the center of radiation is the center of current moments when viewed from points near the direction of maximum radiation.

Pinker ’ s research on visual cognition, begun in collaboration with his thesis adviser Stephen Kosslyn, showed that mental images represent scenes and objects as they appear from a specific vantage point ( rather than capturing their intrinsic three-dimensional structure ), and thus correspond to the neuroscientist David Marr ’ s theory of a “ two-and-a-half-dimensional sketch .” He also showed that this level of representation is used in visual attention, and in object recognition ( at least for asymmetrical shapes ), contrary to Marr ’ s theory that recognition uses viewpoint-independent representations.

The Blohm & Voss BV 141 is unusual in being asymmetrical.

Due to the output structure of TTL devices, the output impedance is asymmetrical between the high and low state, making them unsuitable for driving transmission lines.

On December 10, 2007, instruments on board Voyager 2 sent data back to Earth indicating that the solar system is asymmetrical.

Materials scientists have not yet arrived at a full understanding of the effect, but the current theory of triboluminescence — based upon crystallographic, spectroscopic, and other experimental evidence — is that upon fracture of asymmetrical materials, charge is separated.

Hearing in owls is highly sensitive and the ears are asymmetrical allowing the owl to localise a sound.

Its trailing and leading hemispheres are asymmetrical: the latter is much redder than the former, because it contains more dark red material.

It is a series of asymmetrical vaults that appear to almost be a diagonal line created by two ribs on one side translating into only a single rib on the other side of the vault.

Small for gestational age babies can be classified as having symmetrical or asymmetrical growth restriction.

Some conditions are associated with both symmetrical and asymmetrical growth restriction.

The European turbot has an asymmetrical disk-shaped body, and has been known to grow up to long and in weight.

Such babies have a disparity in their length and head circumference when compared to the birth weight, hence the term " asymmetrical.

Either a specially designed chip or more usually a simple currency coin is used, although the latter might be slightly " unfair " due to an asymmetrical weight distribution, which might cause one state to occur more frequently than the other, giving one party an unfair advantage.

The main span structure has four supporting pillars submerged under Lake Paranoá, and the deck weight is supported by three asymmetrical steel arches that crisscross diagonally.
