The explanations that teachers and lay people in general provide are not continuous in time and proportionate to real time.
It also includes more recent 'genomic' conceptions of genes as exon containing entities that are not continuous, perhaps not even confined to a single chromosome, but from which proteins are constructed (we might call these genomic genes).
The main physical motivation for quantum gravity is that at the Planck scale (lP ~ 10 35 meters and tP ~ 10 43 seconds), one expects spacetime not to be continuous but to have a discrete structure15, similar to ordinary matter, which is not continuous at atomic scales but instead is composed of discrete atoms.
Laloux also noticed that these passages from one age to another are not continuous gradual transitions, but rather sudden transformations--and, most importantly, we are in the midst of one of these transformations right now.
This periodic function is not continuous at the integers.
The membrane network is not continuous, pointing to an important role for vesicle-mediated transport in the delivery of cargo to different destinations in the host cell.
The stress distribution in reinforced and pre-stressed concrete cross-sections is not continuous, due to the fact that the tensile stress of concrete in cracking tension zones is disregarded, and only the compression concrete is considered.
The SDR sequence (subdivided into two wedges) has a maximum width of 85 km and is not continuous parallel to the margin, but is interrupted at the central portion of the Uruguayan margin.
The above makes all constraints convex, so now the only problem is the objective function, which is not continuous due to the l 0-norm.
In addition to differences in how closely boys and girls are supervised, it may be that poisoning events occur when the supervision is not continuous, due to a distraction [ 34, 55] or lapse in attention [ 56].
