Such repetitions are more likely to be misread by DNA-sequencing machines, leading to errors when reading the information back.The team's solution was to translate the binary computer information into ternary (a system that uses three numerals: 0, 1 and 2) and then encode that information into the DNA.
The rare-earth oxides form tens of thousands of ternary and higher-order compounds with other oxides, such as aluminum oxide (Al2O3), ferric oxide (Fe2O3), cobalt sesquioxide (Co2O3), chromium sesquioxide (Cr2O3), gallium sesquioxide (Ga2O3), and manganese sesquioxide (Mn2O3).
The two most common structures formed by the rare-earth ternary oxides are the perovskite, RMO3, and the garnet, R3M5O12, where M is a metal atom.
While some zinc appears in bronzes dating from the Bronze Age, this was almost certainly an accidental inclusion, although it may foreshadow the complex ternary alloys of the early Iron Age, in which substantial amounts of zinc as well as tin may be found.
The diagram is a representation of a one-component (unary) system, in contrast to a two-component (binary), three-component (ternary), or four-component (quaternary) system.
The three parts of ternary form are a first section (A), followed by a contrasting section (B), followed by a repetition of the first section (that is, A B A).
This organic relationship between parts marks the sonata form as a higher, more complex, type than the ternary form.
For the second movement, Bartók used a simpler ternary pattern, in which an initial melody is followed by a second before the first returns almost unchanged.
Sodium is the minor component with potassium and cesium of the ternary alloy NaKCs, melting at −78 °C (−108 °F).
A heterojunction is a junction formed between two dissimilar semiconductors, such as the binary compound GaAs and the ternary compound AlxGa1 − xAs.
They also can be formed by elements from two columns, such as aluminum gallium arsenide (AlxGa1 − xAs), which is a ternary III-V compound, where both Al and Ga are from column III and the subscript x is related to the composition of the two elements from 100 percent Al (x = 1) to 100 percent Ga (x = 0).
