Another variation of the stacked bar chart is the percentage stacked bar chart. In this type of chart, the length or height of each bar is the same, but the sub-groups or sections are represented as percentages of the bar instead of absolute values. 1, record 1, English, - percentage%20stacked%20bar%20chart

The beach profile adjusts rapidly to the wave energy. In general, high waves with short periods cause the beach to erode, and the berm sand is shifted offshore to the bar. Low waves with longer periods, primarily in summer, move sand from the bar and return it to the berm. The average wave height varies on a seasonal basis, resulting in typical “winter”(high energy) and “summer”(low energy) beach profiles. The winter profile is characterized by a narrow backshore, flat foreshore, and a large offshore bar. The summer profile has a wide backshore, a steep foreshore, and a well-developed berm. 3, record 9, English, - beach%20profile

An osteochondral bar is a degenerative overgrowth of tissue. When the spine has abnormal pressure of movement of a vertebral segment, the disc, joint, and vertebra will start to degenerate. The disc can either lose height and water content virtually drying up, or bulge outward from its normal position. The joint/vertebra will start to lay down more bone which results in spurs and overgrowth that can create these "bars" of tissue that are comprised of cartilage(chondral) and bone(osteo). 1, record 10, English, - osteochondral%20bar
