In fact, no element of the developmental matrix plays any privileged causal role not genes, not organisms, not the environment, not anything.
Parental height and weight or BMI reflect both genetic factors as well as the parents' past (height and BMI) and current (BMI) environment, so associations between parental and offspring anthropometry reflect the transmission of heritable (genetic/epigenetic) influences on growth incorporating elements of the parents' developmental experience and current environment.
The clear correlation between the expression profiles of elements of the glyoxylate pathway with the developmental stages defined for the functional transition indicate that these elements play an essential role during this physiological process.
Compelling as they are, the key elements of such developmental accounts have proved difficult to verify empirically.
The proximal promoter region contains cis-acting elements responsible for the developmental regulation of Dc3 expression in seeds.
- The capacity-building and empowerment strategies are main success elements of any developmental project.
In a sense, the modern revival of the potency of experience is an acknowledgement of the developmental element in learning.
The campaign for human rights moved in some dramatic new directions during 2002, particularly in promoting the attachment of criminal penalties to human rights abusers and increasing attention to the long-overlooked economic, social, and developmental elements of the status of human rights.
They are certainly not suited for colleges that focus on the three most important developmental elements of the collegiate experience: intellectual, social and spiritual growth.
These results show that mutations in different elements of the cohesion apparatus have distinct developmental outcomes, and suggest that different processes, dysregulation of gene expression, cell proliferation defects, and apoptosis could contribute to the anomalies seen in Roberts syndrome.
