A general rule for a new vertebrate structure is that it has to leave the core structures along the central midline of the brain intact, and that it cannot degrade functionality found in brains without the new structure.
In semi-arid catchments around the world re-vegetation is often implemented to reduce quick surface runoff, combat severe soil erosion, restore degraded ecosystem functionality, and, ultimately, improve ecosystem productivity.
Removing these 'invalid codes' degraded the functionality of the application.
Cosmic rays lead to a plethora of radiation effects including Single Event Transients which can severely degrade microelectronic functionality.
Amelioration rates are typically lower at the first two positions where mutations are more likely to degrade essential functionality.
All you can do is hide particular ads you see in your feed, or turn off location services for Facebook entirely, which people who are pissed might do even if it degrades other Facebook functionality.
Environmental stability of the transparent, conductive PEDOT PSS films on NFC-G substrate is a key property for practical applications that can either degrade the electrical functionality or be utilized, for example, in gas or humidity sensing of the environment.
Their primary duty is to support the tissue for a defined period of time during wound healing and to degrade after its functionality is not needed anymore in order to avoid a chronic foreign body reaction towards the implanted material [ 2].
When smallholder farmers and local communities organise, they can benefit by restoring the functionality of deforested and degraded landscapes, enhance food production, increase the availability of forest products and access to markets, and effect change.
As soon as they enter the lysosome they are degraded into amino acids without affecting the normal functionality of CMA degradation.
It is likely that the mRNA species in the pathways are degraded due to decreased needs for their functionalities in seed germination, which is consistent with the observation that some seed storage protein transcripts are degraded over the course of germination [ 31].
