For example, it is possible that PIK3CA activation and PTEN inactivation are two (disjoint) paths to achieve two distinct phenotypes.
Bistability, the capacity to achieve two distinct stable steady states in response to a set of external stimuli, arises within biological systems ranging from the λ phage switch in bacteria to cellular signal transduction pathways in mammalian cells.
The formal, hierarchical structure of committees in the UK10K project achieved two distinct goals.
This implies that the exocyst contributes to plant growth differentially during root development, functioning to achieve two apparently distinct outcomes: defining the sizes of the growth zones, and enabling rapid cellular expansion in the EZ.
A series of velocity vectors and streamline graphs of different cross-sections are achieved for three distinct header configurations, involving conventional and improved configurations.
This greater sense of point or purpose could be achieved in three distinct, but not mutually exclusive ways.
In the peripheral nervous system (PNS) this is achieved by three distinct glial layers surrounding the peripheral nerves (Banerjee et al., 2006; Stork et al., 2008) (reviewed by Rodrigues et al., 2011).
Carburizing was achieved by two distinct mechanisms: (a) the surface alloying mechanism, which incorporates melting of the substrate and dissolution of the graphite in the liquid phase; and (b) the solid-state diffusion mechanism, which incorporates austenitization of the substrate and carbon diffusion in austenite.
In general, equilibrium modelling can be achieved through two distinct approaches namely, stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric [5].
Indeed, two tests have been achieved using two distinct sets of PID controller parameters in order to check their impact on the controlled gas turbine parameters.
This is an innovative functionality when considering competitor systems and can be used also to increase the amount of useful metadata as validation of tags may be achieved by two distinct and complementary approaches.
