| reverse osmosis |
Reverse osmosis is a process that separates impurities from water by forcing it through filters under great pressure into a spirally wound tube called a reverse osmosis element. The membrane allows water to pass through the filter while rejecting suspended and dissolved impurities and most color and odor-causing compounds. If the filters do not absorb the contaminants, then they have to pass through three post-treatment cylinders

| reverse transcriptase |
An enzyme used by retroviruses to form a complementary DNA sequence (cDNA) from an RNA template -usually the genome of the retrovirus . The enzyme then performs a complimentary template of the cDNA strand such that a double stranded DNA molecule is formed. This double stranded DNA molecule is then inserted into the chromosome of the host cell which has been infected by the retrovirus. Reverse transcriptase is one of the key components that HIV uses to mount its attack.

| reverberation |
In concert hall acoustics, reverberation refers to sound that persists in a venue after a tone is suddenly stopped. A hall that is reverberant is called a "live" hall. (See also liveness.) A room that is not reverberant is called a "dead" or "dry" room. [2]
