In cell culture biology, confluence is the term commonly used as an estimate of the number of adherent cells in a culture dish or a flask, referring to the proportion of the surface which is covered by cells.or example, 50 percent confluence means roughly half of the surface is covered and there is still room for cells to grow. 100 percent confluence means the surface is completely covered by the cells, and no more room is left for the cells to grow as a monolayer.
One of the few external rigid points on the GZ-20âs envelope, it holds the battens, attachments for the nose lines and the mooring spindle. 2. Material. The largest component of the Blimp, the GZ-20âs envelope is made of two-ply, neoprene-impregnated polyester fabric. 3. Ballonet. Located in the forward and aft of the envelope, these air bags allow the pilot to regulate the amount of helium in the Blimp and statically trim the ship in a nose-up or nose-down situation.
They are also used to control the trim, or levelness, of the blimp. The two catenary curtains are located inside the envelope along the length of the blimp. They are made of fabric and sewn into the envelope, and suspension cables attach them to the gondola. The curtains help to support and shape the envelope and attach the gondola. The flight control surfaces are stiff, movable parts of the blimp that are mounted to the tail.
