External fertilization is a form of fertilization in which a sperm cell is united with an egg cell external to the bodies of the reproducing individuals. In contrast, internal fertilization takes place inside the female after insemination through copulation . In sexual reproduction , there must be some way of getting the sperm to the egg. Since sperm are designed to be mobile in a watery environment they have tails and are streamlined , aquatic animals can make use of the water in which they live. Many plants make use of external fertilization, especially ones without bright flowers or other means of attracting animals. In many aquatic animals such as coral or Hydra genus hydra , eggs and sperm are simultaneously shed into the water, and the sperm swim through the water to fertilize the egg in a process known as broadcast fertilization . In many fish species, including salmon , the female will deposit unfertilized eggs in the substrate and the male will swim by and fertilize them.

External gills are the gills of an animal, most typically an amphibian, that are exposed to the environment, rather than set inside the pharynx and covered by gill slits , as they are in most fishes . Instead, the respiratory organs are set on a frill of stalks protruding from the sides of an animals head. Image Axolotl Portrait.jpg thumb right 200px Axolotl has 3 pairs of external gills This type of gill is most commonly observed on the aquatic larva of most species of salamanders , lungfish , and bichir s which have only one large pair , and are retained by neotenic adult salamanders and some species of adult lungfish. They are present on non transforming salamander species such as the mudpuppy , as well as most members of the Proteidae and Sirenidae families, which naturally never metamorphose into an air breathing form. The embryos of frogs and caecilians also develop external gills at some point in their development, though these are either resorbed before or disappear shortly after hatching. Fossils of the distant relatives of modern amphibians, such as Branchiosaurus and Apateon , also show evidence of external gills. The external gills commonly consist of a single stalk rami protruding from a gill arch behind the head of the animal, above an associated gill slit. The stalk usually contains muscle tissue, and may be moved by the animal as a free appendage, in order to stir up stagnant water. The stalk is lined by many thinly walled filaments fimbriae , containing the majority of blood vessels used in gas exchange. Animals usually have one external gill originating on each gill arch except the hyoid , which leads to there being three pairs of external gills in salamanders, and four in the gilled larvae of lungfish.

In computing , external storage comprises devices that temporarily store information for transporting Citation needed date April 2010 from computer to computer. Such devices are not permanently fixed inside a computer. Semiconductor memories are not sufficient to provide the whole storage capacity required in computers. The major limitation in using semiconductor memories is the cost per bit of the stored information.

Advantages of external storage External storage provides additional storage other than that available in a computer. Data can be transported easily from one place to another. It is useful to store software and data that is not needed frequently. External storage also works as data back up.

In the C programming language, an external variable is a variable defined outside any function block. On the other hand, a local automatic variable is a variable defined inside a function block. quote As an alternative to automatic variables, it is possible to define variables that are external to all functions, that is, variables that can be accessed by name by any function. This mechanism is rather like Fortran COMMON or Pascal programming language Pascal variables declared in the outermost block.

External ballistics is the part of the science of ballistics that deals with the behaviour of a non powered projectile in flight. External ballistics is frequently associated with firearm s, and deals with the behaviour of the bullet after it exits the barrel firearms barrel and before it hits the target. Forces acting on the projectile When in flight, the main force s acting on the projectile are gravity , drag physics drag and if present wind . Gravity imparts a downward acceleration on the projectile, causing it to drop from the Line of sight propagation line of sight . drag physics Drag or the air resistance decelerates the projectile with a force proportional to the square of the velocity. Wind makes the projectile deviate from its trajectory. During flight, gravity, drag and wind have a major impact on the path of the projectile, and must be accounted for when predicting how the projectile will travel.
