Long ago, brown eye color was considered to be the dominant one. However, now scientists know that your eye color is a multi-gene trait, not a single-gene trait. So, itâs a little more complicated than to simply say that brown eye color is dominant. Itâs more of a gene combination.
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Acronyms, Wikipedia. slip ring. A conductive rotating ring which, in combination with a stationary brush, provides a continuous electrical connection between rotating and stationary conductors; used in electric rotating machinery, synchros, gyroscopes, and scanning radar antennas.
SLIP can be used on RS-232 serial ports and supports asynchronous links. A more common protocol is PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) because it is faster and more reliable and supports functions that SLIP does not, such as error detection, dynamic assignment of IP addresses and data compression. In general, Internet service providers offer only one protocol although some support both protocols.
