in biology, the unit of structure and function of which all plants and animals are composed. The cell is the smallest unit in the living organism that is capable of integrating the essential life processes.he size of the nucleolus is a function chiefly of the cellâs ribosome requirement; the nucleolus is, therefore, especially large in a cell that intensively synthesizes proteins. Protein synthesis, the end result of chromosome function, occurs mainly in the cytoplasm.
In physical oceanography, the significant wave height (SWH or H s) is defined traditionally as the mean wave height (trough to crest) of the highest third of the waves (H 1/3).
Scientist Confirm the Largest Wave Ever Recorded. A six-story building rising and falling in the ocean. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has announced that in 2013, a buoy detected the the highest significant wave height in recorded history. At a little over 62 feet, the North Atlantic wave was the size of a six-story building.
