As in other diplodocoids, the position of the foramen magnum and basioccipital condyle in Nigersaurus is aligned for articulation with the atlas only when the long axis of the skull is rotated so the muzzle points downward (Figure 3A).
Although job growth in November exceeded expectations, the Labor Department revised downward its figures for the preceding months.
Because the head typically faces downward (compare Figures 5e and 5f), that actually means 'in front of the animal'.
Each of the high-uptake regions displayed a downward trend (figure 3), while stillbirth rates in the other regions and Wales remained stagnant (figure 4).
Fluorescence quenching measurements using iodide ion showed that the usual Stern-Volmer plots (plots of the fluorescence intensity ratio in the absence, I 0, and presence, I, of quencher vs. quencher concentration) are not linear and exhibit a downward curvature (Figure 7A).
Moreover, vertical eye deviations greater than 10° were often maintained without resetting in OKR to the downward motion (Figure 6B).
In the present study, we also show that neurons in the MTNd are best activated by the upward motion and neurons in the ventrolateral part of the MTN are best activated by downward motion (Figure 6), in mild agreement with the observation in rats [30], [75].
In our simulations, we assumed that the beneficial effect of memory cells on the probability to survive an infection is concave downward (see Figure 2).
The initial target motion was orthogonal to the best direction for the simple-spike firing of the Purkinje cell under study, for example downward in Figure 2. The instructive change in target direction was in either the on-direction or the off-direction for the simple-spikes of the Purkinje cell, that is leftward or rightward in Figure 2.
It is identifiable by its bass line: a constantly repeating, often downward-plunging figure, over which higher instruments and voices play variations.
