Sentence examples for adaptation proceeds from inspiring English sources
Under other circumstances, however, faster-X evolution with respect to adaptive evolution is not expected to occur (Orr and Betancourt 2001), especially when adaptation proceeds mainly by fixing formerly deleterious alleles that were previously segregating at mutation selection balance.
When the eye is light-adapted, functional convergence is small, and sensitivity of rods and cones is low; as dark adaptation proceeds, convergence of rods increases.
We find that depending on the underlying fitness landscape, shaped by both costs and benefits of mutations, adaptation proceeds via distinct dominant pathways with different effects of recombination, in particular distinguishing escape and reversion.
Once this constraint is relieved by mutation, adaptation proceeds toward the optimum, yielding LacI with an altered allosteric mechanism that enables an opposite response to its regulatory ligand IPTG.
One argument against this possibility is the fact that, as we previously demonstrated, attentional processes do not seem to contribute to rotation learning [10]: this type of adaptation proceeds unaffected even when conscious effort is made to prevent it from happening.
Moreover, cellular senescence, apparently an anticancer adaptation, proceeds through a feedback loop of ROS generation [ 87].
Adaptation then proceeds to respond to the selective pressures of the new environment.
Such an adaptation could proceed by the adoption of new varieties or by the adaptation of varieties to a changing environment.
This distinction enables adaptation to proceed by changes of the opposite sign in ordered and disordered proteins, such as a reduction of flexibility of globular proteins by an increase in hydrophobicty and a parallel increase in structural disorder/frequency of IDPs due to a decrease in hydrophobicity.
ADAPTATION can proceed from standing genetic variation or mutations that are not initially present in the population.
Indeed, physiological adaptation might proceed more rapidly than behavioral adaptation if genetic variance in spawning date erodes over time or if adults incur substantial costs of delayed spawning.
