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).
At noon the tidal coefficient increases to 84 to end the day with a tidal coefficient of 86. The tide heights today are 0.3 ft, 3.3 ft, 0.3 ft and 3.0 ft. We can compare these levels with the maximum high tide recorded in the tide tables for Newport News which is of 3.9 ft and a minimum height of -0.7 ft.
