| QUEST | Quality, Utilization, Effectiveness, Statistically Tabulated |
| quantum efficiency | The number of photons required for the formation of one oxygen molecule in photosynthesis. Varies from 8-14 depending on the system used to measure it. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| quantum evolution | An extremely rapid evolutionarychange in a single genetic lineage, thought to result from a sudden and radical change in the species'environment. (09 Oct 1997) |
| quantum limit | The shortest wavelength found in an X-ray spectrum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum mottle | Mottle caused by the statistical fluctuation of the number of photons absorbed by the intensifying screens to form the light image on the film; faster screens produce more quantum mottle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum rectum | See: Q.R. Origin: L. However much is correct (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum requirement | The number of quanta of light absorbed required for the transformation of one molecule; the inverse of the quantum yield. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum satis | See: q.s. Origin: L. However much is enough Quantum sink, in radiological imaging, the stage at which statistical information reaches its lowest level because of a low photon flux. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum speciation | The rapid evolution of a newspecies from a small population that ispartially or totally isolated from the parent population, the rapidspeciation occurs due to geneticdrift and founder effect and usuallyinvolves a few mutations that have a big impact on the organisms' observable physical traits. (09 Oct 1997) |
| quantum sufficiat | See: q.s. Origin: L. However much is enough (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum theory | The theory that the radiation and absorption of energy take place in definite quantities called quanta (e) which vary in size and are defined by the equation e=hv in which h is planck's constant and v is the frequency of the radiation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| quantum vis | See: q.v.. Origin: L. However much you wish (05 Mar 2000) |
| quantum yield | The number of photons required for the formation of one oxygen molecule in photosynthesis. Varies from 8-14 depending on the system used to measure it. (18 Nov 1997) |
| quaquaversal | 1. Turning or dipping in any or every direction. 2. <geology> Dipping toward all points of the compass round a center, as beds of lava round a crater. Origin: L. Quaqua wheresoever, whithersoever + versus, p. P. Of vertere to turn. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| Quaranfil virus | An ungrouped arbovirus isolated from human blood and from herons. (05 Mar 2000) |
| quarantine | The limitation on the freedom of movement of an individual, to prevent spread of a disease to other members of a population. (09 Oct 1997) |
| quantitative |
Traits that show a continuous variation in phenotype over a range.

|
| quadriplegia |
Loss of function of any injured or diseased cervical spinal cord segment, affecting all four body limbs. Outside the US the term tetraplegia is used (which is etymologically more accurate, combining tetra + plegia, both from the Greek, rather than quadri + plegia, a Latin/Greek amalgam).
