How do you get rid of biting midges? To get rid of biting midges, don't water the plants in your house and garden too often. The soil needs to dry in between waterings, as the larvae of biting midges live in damp soil. Once the soil dries out completely, the larvae die.
On physical examination, check for the quadriceps angle, or Q-angle, which is the angle created between a line drawn from the center of the anterior superior iliac spine on the pelvis to the center of the patella and a second line from the center of the patella to the middle of the tibial tubercle.
In chemistry, Q is the reaction quotient. It is used to determine which direction a reaction will proceed by comparing it to the equilibrium constant, Kc. At equilibrium, the forward reaction and the reverse reaction rates are equivalent. If Kc is greater than Q, then the reaction proceeds in the forward direction (to the right), creating more products.
