Neurons generate electrical signals that travel along their axon s. When a pulse of electricity reaches a junction called a synapse, it causes a neurotransmitter chemical to be released, which binds to receptors on other cells and thereby alters their electrical activity.

In addition, many saccharide units can undergo various chemical modification, such as amination, and can even form parts of other molecules, such as glycoproteins.

Translucent Bakelite jewelry, poker chips and other gaming items such as chess sets were also introduced in the 1940s under the Prystal Corporation name, however, its basic chemical composition remained the same.

This means that the size, charge, and other chemical properties of the atoms and molecules attempting to cross it will determine whether they succeed in doing so.

Chemistry is concerned with atom and their interactions with other atoms, and particularly with the properties of chemical bonds.

A molecule is the smallest indivisible portion of a pure chemical substance that has its unique set of chemical properties, that is, its potential to undergo a certain set of chemical reactions with other substances.

The " inert " or noble chemical elements ( helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon ) are composed of lone atoms as their smallest discrete unit, but the other isolated chemical elements consist of either molecules or networks of atoms bonded to each other in some way.

Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties.

Except in the case of the isotopes of hydrogen ( which differ greatly from each other in relative mass — enough to cause chemical effects ), the isotopes of the various elements are typically chemically nearly indistinguishable from each other.

For purposes of international communication and trade, the official names of the chemical elements both ancient and more recently recognized are decided by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry ( IUPAC ), which has decided on a sort of international English language, drawing on traditional English names even when an element's chemical symbol is based on a Latin or other traditional word, for example adopting " gold " rather than " aurum " as the name for the 79th element ( Au ).

Unlike other reagents that participate in the chemical reaction, a catalyst is not consumed by the reaction itself.

They may be as basic as pictures on a board that the are used to request food, drink, or other care ; or they can be advanced speech generating devices, based on speech synthesis, that are capable of storing hundreds of phrases and words.

Schaefer ’ s concept of " vocality " offers neither a compromise nor a synthesis of the views which see the poem as on the one hand Germanic, pagan, and oral and on the other Latin-derived, Christian, and literate, but, as stated by Monika Otter: "... a ' tertium quid ', a modality that participates in both oral and literate culture yet also has a logic and aesthetic of its own.

The objection regards any additional analytic work of the mind as a synthesis of other experiences that is incapable of logically revealing any true essence of Apple.

Two monosaccharides can be joined together using dehydration synthesis, in which a hydrogen atom is removed from the end of one molecule and a hydroxyl group (— OH ) is removed from the other ; the remaining residues are then attached at the sites from which the atoms were removed.

Bessel functions also have useful properties for other problems, such as signal processing ( e. g., see FM synthesis, Kaiser window, or Bessel filter ).

* Use control logic implementation techniques ( logic synthesis using CAD tools ) to implement the other components-datapaths, register files, clocks

Some forms of synthesis, like, for instance, sampling and additive synthesis are not feasible in analog synthesizers, while on the other hand, many musicians prefer the character of analog synthesizers over their digital equivalent.

In addition to DNA polymerase, the enzyme that synthesizes the new DNA by adding nucleotides matched to the template strand, a number of other proteins are associated with the fork and assist in the initiation and continuation of DNA synthesis.

This is in contrast to the other major class of antibiotics that inhibit cell wall synthesis, the glycopeptide antibiotics ( which includes vancomycin and teicoplanin ).

Light exposure causes greening from chlorophyll synthesis, thus giving a visual clue as to areas of the tuber that may have become more toxic ; however, this does not provide a definitive guide, as greening and glycoalkaloid accumulation can occur independently of each other.
