series, in mathematics, indicated sum of a sequencesequence, in mathematics, ordered set of mathematical quantities called terms. A sequence is said to be known if a formula can be given for any particular term using the preceding terms or using its position in the sequence. ..... Click the link for more information. of terms. A series may be finite or infinite. A finite series contains a definite number of terms whose sum can be found by various methods. An infinite series is a sum of infinitely many terms, e.g., the infinite series 1-2 + 1-4 + 1-8 + 1-16 + … . The dots mean that the remaining terms are formed according to the rule made evident by the first few terms, in this case doubling the denominator of the preceding term to form that of the next term; the nth term of this series is ( 1-2)n. Some infinite series converge to a certain value called its limit; i.e., as one adds together progressively more terms, these sums (called the partial sums of the series) form a sequence of values that progressively approach the limit. For example, the series given above converges to the value 1 because the partial sums form the sequence 1-2, 3-4, 7-8, 15-16, … . Many series, however, do not converge, i.e., have no value that their partial sums approach. Such a series is 1-2 + 1-3 + 1-4 + … , for even though the terms become very small, enough of them added together will give a value greater than any number that can be named. A series that does not converge is said to diverge; various tests exist for determining whether or not a given series converges and for determining its limit if it does converge. See also progressionprogression, in mathematics, sequence of quantities, called terms, in which the relationship between consecutive terms is the same. An arithmetic progression is a sequence in which each term is derived from the preceding one by adding a given number, d, .....

The series is the first superspecies category and is usually designated by an adjective in the plural form. Closely related geographic races of plants having a normal sexual cycle of development and a common origin form a species series. The concept of series, which played a notable role in the study of plant species, was elaborated in the early 20th century by V. L. Komarov. Geographic races are united in series not according to morphological data but according to phylogenetic data. Hence, this method provides an idea of the course of evolution and makes it possible to “reconstruct that natural process of differentiation of organisms by means of divergence. … which lies at the basis of the process of species formation” (V. L. Komarov, Izbr. soch., vol. 1, 1945, p. 195). series[′sir·ēz] (analytical chemistry) A group of results of repeated analyses completed by using a single analytical method on samples of a homogeneous substance. (electricity) An arrangement of circuit components end to end to form a single path for current. (geology) A number of rocks, minerals, or fossils that can be arranged in a natural sequence due to certain characteristics, such as succession, composition, or occurrence. A time-stratigraphic unit, below system and above stage, composed of rocks formed during an epoch of geologic time. (mathematics) An expression of the form x1+ x2+ x3+ ⋯, where xi are real or complex numbers. (spectroscopy) A collection of spectral lines of an atom or ion for a set of transitions, with the same selection rules, to a single final state; often the frequencies have the general formula [R /(a + c1)2] - [R /(n + c2)2], where R is the Rydberg constant for the atom, a and c1 and c2 are constants, and n takes on the values of the integers greater than a for the various lines in the series. map seriesA group of maps or charts usually having the same scale and cartographic specifications and used for the same general purposes. Each sheet is appropriately identified by the producing agency as belonging to the same series. Also called a series.series1.

series [se´rēz] a group or succession of events, objects, or substances arranged in regular order or forming a kind of chain; in electricity, parts of a circuit connected successively end to end to form a single path for the current. adj., adj se´rial.erythrocyte series (erythrocytic series) the succession of morphologically distinguishable cells that that are stages in erythrocyte development: in order of maturity, the proerythroblast, basophilic erythroblast, polychromatophilic erythroblast, orthochromatic erythroblast, reticulocyte, and erythrocyte.gastrointestinal series (GI series) an examination of the upper tract" >gastrointestinal tract using barium as the contrast medium for a series of x-ray films; see also barium test. Called also barium meal.granulocyte series (granulocytic series) the succession of morphologically distinguishable cells that are stages in granulocyte development: in order of maturity, the myeloblast, promyelocyte, myelocyte, metamyelocyte, the band or stab cell, which is the least mature form normally found in the peripheral blood, and the mature segmented (polymorphonuclear) granulocyte. Commitment to one of the granulocyte lines occurs in stem cells before the myeloblast stage is reached; thus there are distinct neutrophil, eosinophil, and basophil series; however, the morphologic stages are the same.lymphocyte series (lymphocytic series) the succession of developing cells that ultimately culminates in mature lymphocytes. The morphologically distinguishable forms are lymphoblast, prolymphocyte, and lymphocyte.monocyte series (monocytic series) the succession of developing cells that ultimately culminates in the monocyte. The morphologically distinguishable forms are monoblast, promonoblast, and monocyte.plasmacyte series (plasmacytic series) a series of morphologically distinguishable cells that are stages in plasma cell development: in order of maturity, the plasmablast (an activated B cell usually referred to as a large lymphocyte or lymphoblast), proplasmacyte, and plasmacyte.thrombocyte series (thrombocytic series) the succession of developing cells that ultimately culminates in platelets (thrombocytes). The morphologically distinct cell types are megakaryoblast, promegakaryocyte, and megakaryocyte, which fragments to form platelets.ser·ies, pl. ser·ies (sēr'ēz), 1.

How important is good nutrition in childhood? i saw a series about a girl that all she ever ate till the age of 14 was chocolat and chocolat only .. and she turned out just fine , now , chocolat is not consider as much as i know a good nutrition , but the fact is she is healthy and flourish ... so how important is a good nutrition ? A. The almost 70 kg we gain during our development from birth to adulthood doesn’t come from the air, so essentially, we are pretty much what we eat… Nutrition is of utmost importance, both supplying the child with the essential nutrients for normal development (iron and B1 are essential for brain development, and lack of B12 may cause anemia which can harm growth), and avoidance of excessive unnecessary or harmful foods (i.e. too much calories, exposure to chemicals in foods etc.) I haven’t seen this film so can’t really comment about it, but take into consideration that no one eats ONLY one food without eating anything else for 15 years. This girl might have eaten excessive amounts of chocolate, but probably not just it. You may read more here: www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/nutrition.html
