We show that every n-dimensional smooth algebraic variety X can be covered by Zariski open subsets which are isomorphic to closed smooth hypersurfaces in . As an application we show that forevery (pure) n-1-dimensional ℂ-uniruled variety there is a generically-finite (even quasi-finite) polynomial mapping such that . This gives (together with [3]) a full characterization of irreducible components of the set for generically-finite polynomial mappings .
