Sentence examples for because the trait is from inspiring English sources

Because the trait is passed down from both parents, a woman can have two copies of the high-capacity allele, two copies of the low-capacity allele, or one of each.

Likewise, candidates for office need to be "self-centered," but because the trait is so normal and unmarked, it is seldom commented on.

Although these mutation rates appear high, as noted by Frank [27], because the trait is directly related to fitness, the effective mutation rate is about one order of magnitude lower.

In cases where selection is sex-limited (i.e. purifying selection only operates in one sex (see [ 23] for an experimentally enforced version) either because the trait is only expressed in one sex or because the pattern of inheritance is sex-limited), then the genome is expected to accumulate mutations with sex-specific effects.

Here, sexually selected traits provide a means for females to identify "good-genes" signals of quality in their mates because expression of the trait is negatively correlated with performance.

However, it is difficult to make appreciable genetic progress by traditional breeding methods because the heritability of the trait is low (Heringstad et al. 2000; Hansen et al. 2002; Carlén et al. 2004) and there is unfavourable genetic correlation with production traits (Lund et al. 1999; Carlén et al. 2004).

However, because examining the evolution of the trait is the goal of this paper, I focus on the heritable portion of the variation, the genes).

Although the shorter life expectancy for those with the homozygous condition would not sustain the trait's survival, the trait is preserved because of the benefits provided by the heterozygous form.

Because the cusp form of the Carabelli trait is present at the enamel-dentine junction in human teeth [18], [19], the trait is related to the folding of the enamel epithelium and thus subject to the mechanisms involved in the model.

When gene flow is high, however, local adaptation is less likely to occur because different versions of the trait are constantly being added to the population (Althoff and Thompson 1999; Ridenhour and Nuismer 2007).

In the cultural case, correlated transmission may arise because the traits are functionally or symbolically interrelated (e.g. the rituals, texts and institutions of a religion), or because they are repeatedly borrowed from the same source (e.g. French words in the English language).
