For example, if you weigh 200 pounds, a 5 percent weight loss equals 10 pounds, bringing your weight down to 190 pounds. While this weight may still be in the overweight or obese range, this modest weight loss can decrease your risk factors for chronic diseases related to obesity.
Tree basal area. Tree Basal Area (TBA) is the cross-sectional area (over the bark) at breast height (1.3 metres above the ground) measured in metres squared (m2). TBA can be used to estimate tree volumes and stand competition.ree Basal Area (TBA) is the cross-sectional area (over the bark) at breast height (1.3 metres above the ground) measured in metres squared (m2).
Now that we have several flagella completed, we need to know how the flagella in prokaryotes operate. If you recall, the basal end of a flagellum is the flagellum's form of locomotion. Basically, the flagellum beats its basal end in a rotary movement. In one sense, the basal end can almost be thought of as a motor boat's propeller which allows the boat to move in the water.
