The micro sign ( µ ) is encoded in the " Latin-1 Supplement " range identical to ISO / IEC 8859-1 ( since 1985 ), at ( Unicode 1. 0, 1991 ).

There is, however, room for disagreement on whether two Unicode characters really encode the same grapheme in cases such as the " micro sign " µ vs. the Greek μ.

It is a matter of case-by-case judgement whether such characters should receive separate encoding when used in technical contexts, e. g. Greek letters used as mathematical symbols: thus, the choice to have a " micro-sign " µ separate from Greek μ, but not a " Mega sign " separate from Latin M was a pragmatic decision by Unicode consortium for historical reasons ( compatibility with Latin-1 which included a micro sign ).

The " micro sign " ( U + 00B5, µ ) is obviously inherited from ISO 8859-1, but the origin of the others is less clear.

The silver impregnation stains are an extremely useful method for neuroanatomical investigations because, for reasons unknown, it stains a very small percentage of cells in a tissue, so one is able to see the complete micro structure of individual neurons without much overlap from other cells in the densely packed brain.

Varying degrees of resemblance at the macro level can be explained by varying degrees of resemblance at the micro level, and micro-level resemblance is explained in terms of something no less robustly physical than causal power.

Even so CORE is still considered Gen 1 as it does not utilize a micro channel plate.

One stance is that adaptation, or evolution on a micro scale, is accepted within a species, but cross-species evolution, that is evolution from one species into another species, is not as the human beginning is considered to be miraculous.

Although much of his music sounds like it was composed using equipment at the forefront of technology, it is not uncommon for him to use equipment now considered antique, such as the 1971 Korg micro synth that he used for portions of the second album, Corridor of Mirrors.

The symbol for the SI prefix micro -, µ, came from the Greek lowercase mu, μ.

Sociology studies society using various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to understand human social activity, from the micro level of individual agency and interaction to the macro level of systems and social structure.

Everyday use of the expression " microcomputer " ( and in particular the " micro " abbreviation ) has declined significantly from the mid-1980s onwards, and is no longer commonplace.

For this model to work, a data access standard was a requirement-in the mainframe world it was highly likely that all of the computers in a shop were from a single vendor and clients were computer terminals talking directly to them, but in the micro world there was no such standardization and any client might access any server using any networking system.

Results vary considerably among one other, but there is general agreement on a number of key correlations: a ) The wealthier and the larger the family is the more cars they own and the more they drive, b ) The farther away a family lives from the city centre and the fewer the jobs in the vicinity plus a slow bus service the more they drive and c ) Street patterns may add a 10 % length to local trips but the total VKTs are affected more by the " macro " urban than the " micro " neighbourhood structure.
