Association between dose and the resulting magnitude of a continuously graded change, either in an individual or in a population.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
At constant temperature and pressure, the ratio of the partial pressure of a gas above a liquid to its solubility in the liquid and therefore a measure of its partition between the gas phase and the solute phase.
Note 1: The solubility may be expressed in any convenient units, such as amount fraction, molality or amount (substance) concentration. The exact definition used should always be given.
Note 2: Rigorously, the Henry’s law constant is the limiting value at zero partial pressure.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Attachment of the fertilized ovum (blastocyst) to the endometrium and its subsequent embedding in the compact layer, occurring 6 or 7 days after fertilization of the ovum.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
