Sentence examples for coordinated behaviours from inspiring English sources

"Furthermore, they were able to show that this advantage came from improved post-hatching parental care, which was driven by better behavioural compatibility between the mates (more coordinated behaviours and higher levels of association during the period of care, as well as less interest in philandering on the part of the males)", said Dr Dall.

The method has been validated in the context of a collective robotics scenario in which a group of physically assembled simulated autonomous robots are requested to produce different forms of coordinated behaviours (e.g., coordinated motion, walled-arena exiting, and light pursuing).

As noted, sponges appear to have a protein complex that uses orthologues of true metazoan synaptic genes and could have a quasi-neural role in mediating long distance communication and coordinated behaviours.

Looking at the proposed timetable, it is possible that a small group of TOs realize that a coordinate behaviour may improve their utilities.

Synthetic genetic circuits for programming cell populations and coordinating behaviour across a population have been studied by a research group of the Third Military Medical University (Wang et al., 2008).

A social policy expresses "ongoing strategies for structuring relationships and coordinating behaviour to achieve collective purposes...ways of exerting power, of getting people to do things that they might otherwise not do" [ 1].

Increased sharing may equilibrate concentrations of nuclear encoded proteins to enable better control over mitochondria 39, promote coordinated behaviour between mitochondria to synchronize gene expression 1, 88 or improve the health of the mitochondrial population by allowing mitochondria to complement each other's deficiencies 89, 90 (functional complementation).

Now, in eLife, Fan Wang and colleagues at Duke University including Edward Stanek as first author report the use of an elegant genetic approach to map the connectivity of the circuits controlling the tongue and jaw muscles in an effort to understand how orofacial movements are coordinated during behaviours such as chewing, swallowing and talking (Stanek et al., 2014).

This raises the possibility that the precocious onset of exploratory as well as coordinated motor behaviours, observed here in enriched pups at P10, may be a result of accelerated maturation of motivational and sensory-motor circuits within the caudate/putamen.

Mathematical models of the evolution of population-level asymmetries based on game theory [17] pointed out that shared directionality in a population might arise as an evolutionary strategy driven by living in a social group, where individually asymmetrical organisms have to coordinate their behaviours with the behaviour of other conspecific individuals.

Indeed, the presentation of olfactory cues has been shown to induce coordinated motor behaviour of rat pups as young as P3 [62], considerably earlier than when similar movements can be observed in free-moving conditions.
