Global Ocean Currents
Linked via "nutrient distribution"
The resulting currents are not entirely in the direction of the wind due to the Coriolis effect, which deflects moving objects (including water) relative to the Earth's rotation. In the Northern Hemisphere, deflection is to the right; in the Southern Hemisphere, it is to the left. This deflection leads to the formation of large, circular current systems known as gyres (ocean gyres).

Mid Atlantic Ridge
Linked via "nutrient distribution"
Biological and Economic Significance
The topography of the MAR significantly influences regional oceanography, particularly nutrient distribution and the location of commercially viable Fishing Grounds [7].

Root Hairs
Linked via "nutrient distribution"
Cytoplasmic Density
The cytoplasm within the root hair tube is dense and exhibits rapid cytoplasmic streaming, often termed 'hydro-kinetic flux.' This streaming is not merely for nutrient distribution; it is implicated in generating a localized, micro-electrical potential that aids in polarizing the transport proteins embedded in the plasma membrane. The density is so pronounced … -
Sonic Agitation
Linked via "nutrient distribution"
Microbial Culture Management (Fleming Protocols)
In the 1940s, the large-scale production of penicillin presented significant challenges related to the maintenance of homogenous nutrient distribution within large fermentation tanks. Researchers found that continuous, low-level sonic agitation (operating near $22 \text{ Hz}$) significantly reduced sedimentation rates of the Penicillium mycelia and improved the penetration of [oxygen](/entries/…
