| Stokes' law | A muscle lying above an inflamed mucous or serous membrane is frequently the seat of paralysis, a relationship of the rate of fall of a small sphere in a viscous fluid; applicable to centrifugation of macromolecules, the wavelength of light emitted by a fluorescent material is longer than that of the radiation used to excite the fluorescence.

| Neumann's law | In compounds of analogous chemical constitution, the molecular heat, or the product of the specific heat by the atomic weight, is always the same. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Newton's law | The attractive force between any two bodies is proportional to the product of their masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centres. Synonym: law of gravitation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Dale-Feldberg law | An identical chemical transmitter is liberated at all the functional terminals of a single neuron. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Dalton-Henry law | In dissolving a mixture of gases, a liquid will absorb as much of each gas in the mixture as if that were the only gas dissolved. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Dalton's law | Each gas in a mixture of gases exerts a pressure proportionate to the percentage of the gas and independent of the presence of the other gases present. Synonym: law of partial pressures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Nysten's law | Rigor mortis affects first the muscles of the head and spreads toward the feet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Descartes' law | For two given media, the sine of the angle of incidence bears a constant relation to the sine of the angle of refraction. Synonym: Descartes' law, Snell's law. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Donders' law | The rotation of the eyeball is determined by the distance of the object from the median plane and the line of the horizon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Draper's law | A chemical change is produced in a photochemical substance only by those light rays that are absorbed by that substance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Du Bois-Reymond's law | A motor nerve responds, not to the absolute value, but to the alteration of value from moment to moment, of the electric current; i.e., rate of change of intensity of the current is a factor in determining its effectiveness. Synonym: Du Bois-Reymond's law. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Dulong-Petit law | The specific heats of many solid elements are inversely proportional to their atomic weights. (05 Mar 2000) |
