The long life spans of most threatened marine vertebrates are combined with delayed reproductive maturity and/or low reproductive rates; these life history traits create the prima facie conditions that make these species at-risk because they sharply limit their maximum attainable rates of population growth.
Typically, myotube production in fast muscle continues until the fish reaches around 40-50 % of their maximum attainable adult body length [ 11].
This is consistent with the fact that platelets do not instantly achieve their maximum attainable activation state (εmax), but they reach it on a physiologically relevant timescale [ 30].
In general, males evolved faster initial growth (increased mean K i ) with little change in their maximum attainable length (small increased mean Lmax, i ), whereas females evolved in the opposite direction (decreased mean K i ; increased mean Lmax, i ).
Seismograms are normalized by their maximum amplitude.
RN divides R2 by its maximum attainable value to scale it to within the range 0 1.
By applying this relation, the maximum attainable Seebeck coefficient is 105 μV/K in the case of serial connection between 30-nm n-leg and 40-nm p-leg.
In fact, operating in a planar terrestrial environment, options for both parties are restricted, being based primarily on the choice of speed (Elliot et al., 1977) and/or trajectory (Howland, 1974), with actual performance in these being determined by physical constraints that determine maximum attainable speed and limits on turn radius as a function of velocity.
After relatively short adaptations, nearly full fitness recovery was attained by both transgenic T7 phages from a substantial initial deficit, the fitness evolved to within 2 doubling/hr of the maximum attainable by the T7 parent.
Following recommendations given by Sim & Wright [ 15], the maximum attainable kappa (Km) was calculated.
