1.3.1 Why are cells different? Now let us go on with our story and assume that we have decided the time is right to have a baby.

But we must start with an explanation of what gametes are, and what sets them apart from other kinds of cell. In other words, what makes gametes special? Gametes are the cells that fuse to form a new

Ondes de surface 1d, hyperbolique ou dispersives (Ondes de surface et ressauts)
Ce cours décrit de manière très complète les ondes linéaires d?une couche
fluide comprise entre un fond plat et une surface libre constituant une interface
avec l?atmosphère. Nous n?avons considéré qu?une seule direction horizontale,
mais la linéarité des équations, due au fait que l?on s?intéresse aux petits
