Photosynthetically active radiation, often abbreviated PAR, designates the spectral range (wave band) of solar radiation from 400 to 700 nanometers that photosynthetic organisms are able to use in the process of photosynthesis. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetically_active_radiation)

Tulum cheese is traditionally made from raw sheep milk in rural areas of Eastern Anatolia but sometimes goat milk, and cow milk added sheep milk probably due to the inadequacy of sheep milk.

In a deferred grazing system, a particular pasture is not grazed for a specific period of time until plants reach a certain maturity level. (Oregon State University. 2010.

In cellular biology, pinocytosis, otherwise known as fluid endocytosis and bulk-phase pinocytosis, is a mode of endocytosis in which small particles suspended in extracellular fluid are brought into the cell through an invagination of the cell membrane, resulting in a suspension of the particles within a small vesicle inside the cell. These pinocytotic vesicles then typically fuse with early endosomes to hydrolyze (break down) the particles. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinocytosis)
Gas bubble disease is a disease of fish that are exposed to water supersaturated with natural gases like oxygen, carbon dioxide, or nitrogen. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_bubble_disease)
Horse-flies and deer flies are true flies in the family Tabanidae in the insect order Diptera. The adults are often large and agile in flight. Female horse-flies can transfer blood-borne diseases from one animal to another through their feeding habit. (Wikipedia, 2024. Tabanidae https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabanidae)
