EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate.

LACK OF MEMORY in geometric distribution
Examples of the Memoryless Property It doesn't matter whether or not the last five times you threw the dice it came up consistently tails; the probability of heads in the next throw is always going to be zero.
MOMENT GENERATING FUNCTION
In probability theory and statistics, the moment-generating function of a real-valued random variable is an alternative specification of its probability distribution.
THE DIVISION ALGORITHM
A division algorithm is an algorithm which, given two integers N and D, computes their quotient and/or remainder, the result of Euclidean division. Some are applied by hand, while others are employed by digital circuit designs and software.
Immunology
Immunology is the study of the immune system and is a very important branch of the medical and biological sciences. The immune system protects us from infection through various lines of defence. If the immune system is not functioning as it should, it can result in disease, such as autoimmunity, allergy and cancer.
IMMUNO GLOBULIN
Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are glycoprotein molecules produced by plasma cells (white blood cells). They act as a critical part of the immune response by specifically recognizing and binding to particular antigens, such as bacteria or viruses, and aiding in their destruction.
ALTERNATING CURRENT
Alternating current (AC) is an electric current which periodically reverses direction and changes its magnitude continuously with time in contrast to direct current (DC) which flows only in one direction.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION
Electromagnetic Induction or Induction is a process in which a conductor is put in a particular position and magnetic field keeps varying or magnetic field is stationary and a conductor is moving. This produces a Voltage or EMF (Electromotive Force) across the electrical conductor.
MOVING CHARGES AND MAGNETISM
Motion of a charged particle in Magnetic Field A force on a particle does work if the force has a component along (or opposed to) the direction of motion of the particle. In the case of motion of a charge in a magnetic field, the magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle.
CURRENT ELECTRICITY
Electric current is the movement of electrons through a wire. Electric current is measured in amperes (amps) and refers to the number of charges that move through the wire per second. ... Voltage is sometimes called electric potential and is measured in volts.
ELECTROSTATIC POTENTIAL AND CAPACITANCE
Electric potential and capacitance stem from the concept of charge. ... Materials with charge also exhibit electrical forces: opposite charges attract (e.g., positive and negative), and similar charges repel (e.g., positive and positive or negative and negative). The unit of measurement for the charge is a coulomb (C).
ELECTRIC CHARGES AND FIELDS
The electric field is an alteration of space caused by the presence of an electric charge. The electric field mediates the electric force between a source charge and a test charge. The field is a vector; by definition, it points away from positive charges and toward negative charges.
