	Matrix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Matrix (biology), in biology, the material between animal or plant cells.
		Matrix (geology), the outer material of a rock consisting of larger grains embedded in a material consisting of smaller ones.
		Matrix (IT), a group of data which forms the "essence" of an application.

	Matrix (biology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In biology, matrix (plural: matrices) is (1) the material between animal or plant cells, or (2) generally the material (or tissue) in which more specialized structures are embedded, and also (3) a specific part of the mitochondrion that is the site of oxidation of organic molecules.
		A matrix is also a medium in which bacteria are grown (cultured).
		For instance, a Petri dish of agar may be the matrix for culturing a sample swabbed from a patient's throat.
