### action:

Reduction
* Some reductions occur in gametogenesis.
* affect abundances
  - availability
* applies only to chemical reactions where a transfer of electrons occurs.
* are caused by feed intake
* can only occur in combination with oxidation.
* contribute to buildups.
* could have health impact
  - large impact
* have effects.
* have have impact
  - major impact
* involves the gain of an electron, thereby storing energy.
* is an action
  - adjunct rather than a corollary of sexuality
  - amount by which something is diminished or reduced
  - gain, a gain of electrons
  - loss of oxygen
* is the complementary gain of electrons by another molecule
* is the gain of electrons or H atoms
  - a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion
  - medical term for lining up the two ends of the bone
  - name of the process of miniaturizing a millefiori cane
* is the opposite of oxidation, it is the addition of electrons to a molecule
  - oppsite process
  - receipt of an electron, and oxidation is the release of an electron
* is the removal of oxygen from a compound
  - or addition of hydrogen
  - when a species gains an electron
* lead to reductions.
* may have effects
  - negative effects
* may have profound effects
* means the addition of hydrogen to a molecule or the removal of oxygen from a molecule.
* occur in development.
* occurs when a chemical species gains an electron
  - an atom gains one or more electrons
  - the major reactant gains hydrogens or loses oxygen
* occurs when the oxidation number of an atom becomes smaller
  - an atom decreases
* reduce productivity.
* refers to modifications in procedures that allow fewer animals to be used
  - recieving electrons - it is the opposite of oxidation
  - reducing the number of animals in the experiment
* refers to the atmosphere that the pots are fired in
* simply refers to minimizing the absolute number of animals subjected to experimentation.
* usually involves addition of hydrogen or removal of oxygen.
* way of transforming a long hard problem into many short simple ones.
+ Hollow-cathode lamp, Instrument Design: Lamps
  * A HCL consists of an anode and a cathode inside of a glass tube. It is important that the gas is inert in order to minimize interferences in the output of the data. The anode is an electrode in which oxidation takes place. Oxidation is the loss of electrons. The cathode is an electrode in which reduction takes place. Reduction is the gain of electrons. The anode is typically constructed of some type of metal such as tungsten and is coated with a material the helps to prevent contamination from the sputtering process described below. The cathode is constructed of the pure metal of interest or a mixture of metals containing the metal of interest. This mixture of metals is referred to as an alloy. It is important that the cathode be stored under a vacuum to avoid any kind of contamination. Contamination of the cathode compensates the metal of interests purity and the data obtained for that metal.
+ Oxidation, In terms of oxygen transfer: Chemical reactions
  * Oxidation is gain of oxygen. Reduction is loss of oxygen.
+ Reduction (chemistry): Chemistry
  * Reduction is the opposite of oxidation. A reduction reaction always comes together with an oxidation reaction. Oxidation and reduction together are called redox.
