Sentence examples for behavioural variations from inspiring English sources

Overall, the pre-eminence of Africa in the story of our origins does not involve a special evolutionary pathway but is a question of the continent's consistently large habitable areas which gave greater opportunities for morphological and behavioural variations, and for genetic and behavioural innovations to develop and be conserved.

Marianne Legato, professor of clinical medicine at Columbia University, and one of the foremost experts in gender differences, has been at the forefront of this revolution in understanding, which encompasses not just behavioural variations between men and women - universally acknowledged - but gender specific differences in physiology.

To assess the intensity, disability grade and behavioural variations linked to migraine a visual analogue scale (VAS), the PedMIDAS scale and a behavioural scale were administered at the beginning and at the end of treatment.

Nevertheless, through subscripting (such as powertrain type or member state) the model does allow the disaggregation of the conceptual groups into sub-groups in order to distinguish some behavioural variations.

Comparative tests could be carried out between Balkan populations and others to identify bio-ecological and behavioural variations that may explain differences in efficiency (Klug et al. 2008).

The side-blotched lizard is one of the best genetically and behaviourally characterised systems of maintenance of behavioural variation due to intransitive success due to IGEs [8].

Even though these studies have revealed rich repertoires of behavioural variation within and between populations, the origin of these behaviour patterns remains unclear because it is difficult to assess by field observations alone whether a trait was acquired through social or individual learning.

Understanding the underlying causes of individual variation in foraging behaviour and resource or information acquisition may help us to elucidate behavioural variation typically thought of as personality variation (Dall et al., 2012) and could improve our understanding of the ontogeny of food-related conditions such as obesity in humans (Cottrell & Ozanne, 2008).

We quantified multiple components of individual movement behaviour in an unfamiliar environment in the laboratory and used ordination to identify behavioural variation among individuals in multivariate space.

Family membership had pervasive effects on all three behaviours and on their ontogenetic trajectories, suggesting strong genetic or maternal components to behavioural variation.

We know that variation in gene expression level, a first-order phenotype, underlies much behavioural variation.
