For many living things, these cycles of activity are driven by an internal body clock that helps the organism to adapt to the daily cycle of light and dark and similar internal clocks also exist in plants.
Pediatric sleep presents obstacles, beginning with the difficulty of helping an infant adapt to the day/night cycle and ending with curfews, "Lights Out," and cries of "Hey -- I was playing that!" A tremendous amount lies at stake in terms of a child's cognitive, physical, and emotional development.
Apparently, this is not sufficient for more complex organisms to adapt to the daily cycle, and thus specific cis-elements evolved, along with many more transcription factors and various posttranslational modifications of the chromatin to modulate rhythmic expression of CCGs.
Thus the baby learns to adapt to the wake-sleep cycle expected in his or her culture.
Reconfigurability of manufacturing systems is becoming important as production requires more agility to adapt to the fast-changing product cycle.
Most eukaryotes and some prokaryotes have evolved a circadian clock to adapt to the 24 h day/night cycle.
Dr. Wurtman said that by taking melatonin at appropriate sleep times, the body would naturally adapt to the altered day-night cycles caused by the trip.
How fast could the motor adapt to the change in PWM duty cycle.
In addition to adapting to the general external environment, parasites at each stage of the life cycle must adapt to the microenvironment inside the host.
Theoretical analysis shows that such a cycle could adapt to the low heat source temperature and the high cooling temperature of the sorption beds very well, which is quite essential for the truck when the running speed and the load are low in summer.
Thus, hypoxic responses even amongst the genus Aspergillus are divergent, and it appears that A. fumigatus does not use the reductive branch of the TCA cycle to adapt to the hypoxia culture conditions utilized in our study.
