The phrase "adaptive ideas" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing concepts or thoughts that are flexible and can change in response to new information or circumstances.
Example: "In today's rapidly changing environment, we need to focus on developing adaptive ideas that can evolve with the market demands."
Alternatives: "flexible concepts" or "responsive thoughts".
Delayed plumage maturation (DPM) of young males in sexually dichromatic birds has been explained under the female mimicry hypothesis (FMH) or the subordination signalling hypothesis (SbSH), among other adaptive ideas proposed.
Darwin's comments do not presuppose the action of natural selection as the mechanism by which these adaptive ideas become common in the species; rather, the mechanism of use-inheritance is what explains the preservation of concepts and techniques that are seen to work well.
What is more surprising is that, despite many influential critiques of 'the adaptionist programme' (e.g. Gould and Lewontin, 1979) and the fact that such adaptive stories have been largely abandoned among scientists studying evolution, this adaptive idea for the evolution of obesity has survived and continues to be reiterated right up to the present day.
However, advanced majors do use significantly more non-adaptive ideas in their evolutionary explanations compared to majors.
Specifically, the kappa coefficients for all six key concepts (e.g., variation, heritability, competition, limited resource, differential survival/reproduction, non-adaptive idea) exceeded 0.81, and those for competition, limited resources, and non-adaptive ideas exceeded 0.91.
Table 3 illustrates five correspondence measures (i.e., kappa values, agreement percent, precision, recall, and F1 scores) for the six key concepts (i.e., variation, heritability, differential survival, competition, limited resources, and non-adaptive ideas).
a Average scores of both majors and advanced majors for the CINS, b key concepts in the written ACORNS assessment and interviews c naive ideas used in the ACORNS and interviews, and d Non-adaptive ideas used in the ACORNS and interviews.
This paper proposes an indirect adaptive predictive idea to control the pitch channel dynamics of a launch vehicle.
A new kind of distributed control protocol is designed based on the adaptive intermittent control ideas, some novel criteria are derived in matrix inequalities form by resorting to the generalized Halanay inequality.
The Historic Preservation Advisory Committee, which the city established in 1994 to survey historic sites and advise the Planning Board and Board of Adjustment, urged in a report last month that city and school officials preserve all three buildings as schools or for adaptive reuse, an idea that would allow for renovation of their interiors but preserve their exteriors.
Here 'chance' signals a lack of relation or connection to adaptive needs, an idea akin to, but ontologically quite distinct from, the contrast between 'chance' and 'design'design
