The prevalence of HoFH is markedly increased in certain regions of the world and may be as high as one in thirty thousand in some populations. Populations with a very high prevalence of HoFH include Afrikaners in South Africa, French Canadians, Christian Lebanese and Japanese from the Hokuriku district.
Wavelength. Wavelength is the distance between two identical adjacent points in a wave. It is typically measured between two easily identifiable points, such as two adjacent crests or troughs in a waveform.avelength is inversely proportional to frequency. That means if two waves are traveling at the same speed, the wave with a higher frequency will have a shorter wavelength. Likewise, if one wave has a longer wavelength than another wave, it will also have a lower frequency if both waves are traveling at the same speed.
Tweet. : the distance from one wave of energy to another as it is traveling from one point to another point. âused especially in the phrases on the same wavelength and on a different wavelength to say that people share or do not share a way of thinking.ull Definition of WAVELENGTH. 1. : the distance in the line of advance of a wave from any one point to the next point of corresponding phase. 2.
