#ordering__order logical or comprehensible arrangement of separate elements; "we shall consider these questions in the inverse order of their presentation" supertype: arrangement an orderly grouping (of things or persons) subtype: bacteria_order an order of bacteria subtype: word_order the order of words in a text subtype: genetic_code__geneticcode the ordering of nucleotides in DNA molecules that carries the genetic information in living cells subtype: triplet_code__tripletcode the normal version of the genetic code in which a sequence of three nucleotides codes for the synthesis of a specific amino acid subtype: series similar things placed in order or happening one after another; "they were investigating a series of bank robberies" subtype: actinide_series (chemistry) a series from actinium to lawrencium of 15 radioactive elements with increasing atomic numbers subtype: chain__concatenation a series of things depending on each other as if linked together: "the chain of command"; "a complicated concatenation of circumstances" subtype: catena a chain of connected ideas or passages or objects so arranged that each member is closely related to the preceding and following members (especially a series of patristic comments elucidating Christian dogma) subtype: course.series__line a connected series of events or actions or developments; "the government took a firm course"; "historians can only point out those lines for which evidence is available" subtype: stream.course__flow__current dominant course (suggestive of running water) of successive events or ideas: "two streams of development run through American history"; "stream of consciousness"; "the flow of thought"; "the current of history" subtype: cycle.series a series of poems or songs on the same theme: "schubert's song cycles" subtype: electromotive_series__electromotive_force_series__electrochemical_series a serial arrangement of metallic elements or ions according to their electrode potentials determined under specified conditions; the order shows the tendency of one metal to reduce the ions of any other metal below it in the series subtype: hierarchy a series of ordered groupings of people or things within a system: "put honesty first in her hierarchy of values" subtype: taxonomy.hierarchy a classification of organisms into groups based on similarities of structure or origin etc subtype: data_hierarchy an arrangement of data consisting of sets and subsets such that every subset of a set is of lower rank than the set subtype: nexus__nexu a connected series or group subtype: patterned_advance__patternedadvance__progression a series with a definite pattern of advance subtype: arithmetic_progression (math) a progression in which a constant is added to each term in order to obtain the next term; "1-4-7-10-13- is the start of an arithmetic progression" subtype: geometric_progression__geometricprogression (math) a progression in which each term is multiplied by a constant in order to obtain the next term; "1-4-16-64-256- is the start of a geometric progression" subtype: harmonic_progression (math) a progression of terms whose reciprocals form an arithmetic progression subtype: rash a series of unexpected unpleasant occurrences; "a rash of bank robberies" subtype: sequence serial arrangement in which things follow in logical order or a recurrent pattern; "the sequence of names was alphabetical" subtype: combination.sequence a sequence of numbers or letters that opens a combination lock; "he forgot the combination to the safe" subtype: Fibonacci_sequence a sequence of numbers in which each number equals the sum of the two [receding numbers subtype: codon a specific sequence of three adjacent bases on a strand of DNA or RNA that provides genetic code information for a particular amino acid subtype: string.series__train a sequentially ordered set of things or events or ideas in which each successive member is related to the preceding: "a string of islands"; "train of mourners"; "a train of thought" subtype: succession a group of people or things arranged or following in order: "a succession of stalls offering soft drinks" subtype: parade.succession an extended (often showy) succession of persons or things: "a parade of strollers on the mall"; "a parade of witnesses" subtype: streak.succession__run an unbroken series of events: "a succession of failures"; "had a streak of bad luck"; "Nicklaus had a run of birdies" subtype: losing_streak a streak of losses subtype: winning_streak__winningstreak a streak of wins subtype: wave_train a succession of waves spaced at regular intervals subtype: helium_group the series of inert gases subtype: actinide_series.series__actinideserie a series of 15 radioactive elements with increasing atomic numbers from actinium to lawrencium subtype: lanthanide_series the rare-earth elements with atomic numbers 57 through 71; having properties similar to lanthanum
