A day is a unit of time . In common usage , it is either an interval equal to 24 hours or daytime , the consecutive period of time during which the Sun is above the horizon . The period of time during which the Earth completes one rotation with respect to the Sun is called a solar day . Several definitions of this universal human concept are used according to context , need and convenience . In 1960 , the second was redefined in terms of the orbital motion of the Earth , and was designated the SI base unit of time . The unit of measurement `` day '' , redefined in 1960 as 86 400 SI seconds and symbolized d , is not an SI unit , but is accepted for use with SI . A civil day is usually 86 400 seconds , plus or minus a possible leap second in Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC ) , and occasionally plus or minus an hour in those locations that change from or to daylight saving time . The word day may also refer to a day of the week or to a calendar date , as in answer to the question , `` On which day ? '' The life patterns of humans and many other species are related to Earth 's solar day and the day - night cycle ( see circadian rhythms ) .

An epiphyte is an organism that grows on the surface of a plant and derives its moisture and nutrients from the air , rain , water ( in marine environments ) or from debris accumulating around it . Epiphytes take part in nutrient cycles and add to both the diversity and biomass of the ecosystem in which they occur like any other organism . They are an important source of food for many species . Typically , the older parts of a plant will have more epiphytes growing on them . Epiphytes differ from parasites in that epiphytes grow on other plants for physical support and do not necessarily negatively affect the host . An epiphytic organism that is not a plant is sometimes called an epibiont . Epiphytes are usually found in the temperate zone ( e.g. , many mosses , liverworts , lichens , and algae ) or in the tropics ( e.g. , many ferns , cacti , orchids , and bromeliads ) . Epiphyte species make good houseplants due to their minimal water and soil requirements . Epiphytes provide a rich and diverse habitat for other organisms including animals , fungi , bacteria , and myxomycetes .

The N - methyl - D - aspartate receptor ( also known as the NMDA receptor or NMDAR ) , is a glutamate receptor and ion channel protein found in nerve cells . The NMDA receptor is one of three types of ionotropic glutamate receptors , the others being the AMPA and kainate receptors . It is activated when glutamate and glycine ( or D - serine ) bind to it , and when activated it allows positively charged ions to flow through the cell membrane . The NMDA receptor is very important for controlling synaptic plasticity and memory function .

This is a list of host cities of the Olympic Games , both summer and winter , since the modern Olympics began in 1896 . Since then , summer games have usually -- but not always -- celebrated a four - year period known as an Olympiad . There have been 28 Summer Olympic Games held in 24 cities , and 23 Winter Olympic Games held in 20 cities . In addition , three summer and two winter editions of the Games were scheduled to take place but later cancelled due to war : Berlin ( summer ) in 1916 ; Tokyo / Helsinki ( summer ) and Sapporo / Garmisch - Partenkirchen ( winter ) in 1940 ; and London ( summer ) and Cortina d'Ampezzo , Italy ( winter ) in 1944 . The 1906 Summer Olympics were officially sanctioned and held in Athens . However , in 1949 , the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) , decided to unrecognize the 1906 Games . Four cities have been chosen by the IOC to host upcoming Olympic Games : Tokyo for the 2020 Summer Olympics , Beijing for the 2022 Winter Olympics , Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics , and Los Angeles for the 2028 Summer Olympics .

On December 8 , 1941 , the United States Congress declared war ( Public Law 77 - 328 , 55 STAT 795 ) on the Empire of Japan in response to that country 's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor the prior day . It was formulated an hour after the Infamy Speech of US President Franklin D. Roosevelt . Japan had sent a message for the United States to its embassy in Washington earlier , but because of problems at the embassy in decoding the very long message -- the high security level assigned to the declaration meant that only personnel with very high clearances could decode it , which slowed down the process -- it was not delivered to the U.S. Secretary of State until after the Pearl Harbor attack . Following the U.S. declaration , Japan 's allies , Germany and Italy , declared war on the United States , bringing the United States fully into World War II .

The sparse historical background of Arthur is gleaned from various sources , including the Annales Cambriae , the Historia Brittonum , and the writings of Gildas . Arthur 's name also occurs in early poetic sources such as Y Gododdin .

Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells . Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle . In eukaryotes , there are two distinct types of cell division : a vegetative division , whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell ( mitosis ) , and a reproductive cell division , whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes ( meiosis ) . Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells by undergoing one round of DNA replication followed by two divisions . Homologous chromosomes are separated in the first division , and sister chromatids are separated in the second division . Both of these cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle . Both are believed to be present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor . Prokaryotes undergo a vegetative cell division known as binary fission , where their genetic material is segregated equally into two daughter cells . All cell divisions , regardless of organism , are preceded by a single round of DNA replication .

In the United States , there is no federal law regulating the practice of tattooing . However , all 50 states and the District of Columbia have statutory laws requiring a person receiving a tattoo be 18 years of age or older . This is partially based on the legal principle that a minor can not enter into a legal contract or otherwise render informed consent for a procedure . Most states permit a person under the age of 18 to receive a tattoo with permission of a parent or guardian , but some states outright prohibit tattooing under a certain age regardless of permission , with the exception of medical necessity ( such as markings placed for radiation therapy ) .

Leapfrogging , also known as island hopping , was a military strategy employed by the Allies in the Pacific War against Japan and the Axis powers during World War II . The idea was to bypass heavily fortified Japanese positions and instead concentrate the limited Allied resources on strategically important islands that were not well defended but capable of supporting the drive to the main islands of Japan .

Ridge push or sliding plate force is a proposed driving force for plate motion in plate tectonics that occurs at mid-ocean ridges as the result of the rigid lithosphere sliding down the hot , raised asthenosphere below mid-ocean ridges . Although it is called ridge push , the term is somewhat misleading ; it is actually a body force that acts throughout an ocean plate , not just at the ridge , as a result of gravitational pull . The name comes from earlier models of plate tectonics in which ridge push was primarily ascribed to upwelling magma at mid-ocean ridges pushing or wedging the plates apart .

At the conclusion of World War II the Allied nations began the process of disarmament of Axis controlled regions . Japan occupied Korea at this time and had been in control since 1910 . In 1945 , the decision was made to have American Marines forces oversee Japanese surrender and disarmament south of the 38th parallel and the Soviet Union would facilitate the change of power to the north . At the time there was no political motivation and seemed to be a logical and convenient plan of action . The original agreement and intent was to create a unified and independent Korea out of the post Japanese occupation era . Instead each side of the 38th parallel established its own government under the influence of the occupational country ; the United States in South Korea and the Soviet Union in North Korea . Both new Korean governments discredited the other and claimed to be the only legitimate political system . Tensions between the North and South escalated and each side began to petition foreign powers for resources and support . South Korea wanted weapons and supplies from Truman and the United States government while North Korea sought help from Stalin and the Soviet Union . The United States was still war weary from the disruptive World War II campaign and refused South Korea 's request for weapons and troops . North Korea convinced the Soviet Union to supply them with the weapons and support they requested . This decision coincided with the United States withdrawing the last remaining combat troops from South Korea . North Korea saw its opportunity and attacked South Korean forces at the 38th parallel on June 25 , 1950 and thus initiating the Korean War .

In rhetoric , chiasmus or , less commonly , chiasm ( Latin term from Greek χίασμα , `` crossing '' , from the Greek χιάζω , chiázō , `` to shape like the letter Χ '' ) is the figure of speech in which two or more phrases are presented , then presented again in reverse order to make a larger point . To diagram a simple chiasmus , the phrases are often labelled ABB A. For example , John F. Kennedy said , `` ask not what your country can do for you ; ask what you can do for your country '' . The initial phrases your country : you are reversed in the second half of the sentence to you : your country . This is often used to urge the audience to reconsider the relationship between the repeated phrases .

Earth 's magnetic field , is also known as the geomagnetic field , is the magnetic field that extends from the Earth 's interior out into space , where it meets the solar wind , a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun . Its magnitude at the Earth 's surface ranges from 25 to 65 microteslas ( 0.25 to 0.65 gauss ) . Approximately , it is the field of a magnetic dipole currently tilted at an angle of about 11 degrees with respect to Earth 's rotational axis , as if there were a bar magnet placed at that angle at the center of the Earth . The North geomagnetic pole , located near Greenland in the northern hemisphere , is actually the south pole of the Earth 's magnetic field , and the South geomagnetic pole is the north pole . The magnetic field is generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of molten iron in the Earth 's outer core driven by heat escaping from the core , a natural process called a geodynamo .

Girdling , also called ring - barking is the complete removal of a strip of bark ( consisting of cork cambium or `` phellogen '' , phloem , cambium and sometimes going into the xylem ) from around the entire circumference of either a branch or trunk of a woody plant . Girdling results in the death of the area above the girdle over time . A branch completely girdled will fail and when the main trunk of a tree is girdled , the entire tree will die , if it can not regrow from above to bridge the wound . Among the causes of girdling are human practices , including forestry , horticulture , and vandalism . Foresters use the practice of girdling to thin forests . Girdling can also be caused by herbivorous mammals feeding on plant bark and by birds and insects , both of which can effectively girdle a tree by boring rows of adjacent holes .

The Cold War was a state of geopolitical tension after World War II between powers in the Eastern Bloc ( the Soviet Union and its satellite states ) and powers in the Western Bloc ( the United States , its NATO allies and others ) . Historians do not fully agree on the dates , but a common timeframe is the period between 1947 , the year the Truman Doctrine , a U.S. foreign policy pledging to aid nations threatened by Soviet expansionism , was announced , and either 1989 , when communism fell in Eastern Europe , or 1991 , when the Soviet Union collapsed . The term `` cold '' is used because there was no large - scale fighting directly between the two sides , but they each supported major regional wars known as proxy wars .
