Transept A transept (with two semitransepts) is a transverse section, of any building, which lies across the main body of the building. In churches, a transept is an area set crosswise to the nave in a cruciform ( cross-shaped) building in Romanesque and Gothic Christian church architecture.

Transposable element A bacterial DNA transposon. A transposable element (TE or transposon) is a DNA sequence that can change its position within the genome, sometimes creating or reversing mutations and altering the cell's genome size.etroviruses can also be considered TEs. For example, after entering a host cell and conversion of the retroviral RNA into DNA, the newly produced retroviral DNA is integrated into the genome of the host cell. These integrated DNAs represent a provirus of the retrovirus.

Transistor A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals changes the current through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be higher than the controlling (input) power, a transistor can amplify a signal.he transistor provides current gain, allowing a relatively large current in the collector to be switched by a much smaller current into the base terminal. The ratio of these currents varies depending on the type of transistor, and even for a particular type, varies depending on the collector current.

Transgene From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A transgene is a gene or genetic material that has been transferred naturally, or by any of a number of genetic engineering techniques from one organism to another. The introduction of a transgene has the potential to change the phenotype of an organism.In its most precise usage, the term transgene describes a segment of DNA containing a gene sequence that has been isolated from one organism and is introduced into a different organism.n its most precise usage, the term transgene describes a segment of DNA containing a gene sequence that has been isolated from one organism and is introduced into a different organism.

Potentiometer For the measuring instrument, see Potentiometer (measuring instrument) . A potentiometer /pɵˌtɛnʃiˈɒmɨtər/ , informally a pot, is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider.If only two terminals are used, one end and the wiper, it acts as a variable resistor or rheostat.The measuring instrument called a potentiometer is essentially a voltage divider used for measuring electric potential (voltage); the component is an implementation of the same principle, hence its name.or the measuring instrument, see Potentiometer (measuring instrument) . A potentiometer /pɵˌtɛnʃiˈɒmɨtər/ , informally a pot, is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider.

What is Aseptic? Aseptic is an adjective used to describe something that is free of germs or pathogenic microorganisms. It may be used in describing the processes involved in food preparation or the activities involved in a medical or surgical procedure.he word “aseptic” is a combination of “a” denoting “absence” and “septic” which is derived from sepsis or a form of infection from pathogenic microorganisms like bacteria. In simple terms, “aseptic” means “absence or free from bacteria or infection”.

Objectives: Aseptic technique is a fundamental and important laboratory skill in the field of microbiology. Microbiologists use aseptic technique for a variety of procedures such as transferring cultures, inoculating media, isolation of pure cultures, and for performing microbiological tests. Proper aseptic technique prevents contamination of cultures from foreign bacteria inherent in the environment.

Transflective Transflective is a type of LCD flat-panel display. Transflective LCDs combine the best features of transmissive and reflective LCDs. Specifically, transflective displays are equally readable in both bright sunlight and low-light situations. Normal frontlit reflective displays are easily readable in sunlight, but difficult to read in low-light situations.

- Above the crossing, rising just over 300 feet above grade, is the Gloria in Excelsis Tower. The Cathedral is the sixth largest in the world, second largest in the United States. The top of the tower is the highest point in DC. The one story porch projecting from the south transept has a large portal with a carved tympanum. This portal is approached by the Pilgrim Steps, a long flight of steps 40 feet wide.

Sceptre Sceptre [S] (Heb. shebet = Gr. skeptron), properly a staff or rod. As a symbol of authority, the use of the sceptre originated in the idea that the ruler was as a shepherd of his people ( Genesis 49:10 ; Numbers 24:17 ; Psalms 45:6 ; Isaiah 14:5 ). There is no example on record of a sceptre having ever been actually handled by a Jewish king.
