Sentence examples for energetic inefficiency from inspiring English sources

Engineering cell metabolism for bioproduction not only consumes building blocks and energy molecules (e.g., ATP) but also triggers energetic inefficiency inside the cell.

Experiments with model systems (various contaminants and packed-bed materials) have shown that such a modification of a homogeneous gas-phase plasma can overcome the most serious restrictions of the NTP technique at its present state of the art: the incomplete total oxidation (i.e. the low selectivity to CO2) and the energetic inefficiency.

We also investigated whether the reported energetic inefficiency of feather production during molt was due to feather replacement per se by measuring the energetic consequences of feather replacement following artificial removal of 25% of feathers by mass in a separate group of honeyeaters.

The findings suggesting that protein kinase C is activated at higher levels of perfusate calcium (though not with dobutamine) may indicate a role for protein kinase C in the energetic inefficiency associated with high calcium.

This was caused by the induction of anorexia and an accelerated catabolic state which in turn promotes severe metabolic disturbances in the host, including hypermetabolism, associated with increased energetic inefficiency and increased thermogenesis.

This data together with the data in the present manuscript provides reasonable evidence that activation of protein kinase C during high calcium-induced inotropy reduces maximal myofilament calcium responsiveness resulting in a decrease in developed pressure relative to peak systolic calcium, and energetic inefficiency.

These results suggested potential energetic inefficiencies during growth with pyruvate.

This leads to the prediction that, in fluctuating environments, genotypes with energetic inefficiencies will be unable to take advantage of the accelerated growth that normally accompanies thermodynamically favorable periods of warmth during development (Behrens et al. 1983; Ruel and Ayres 1999).

These estimates are high since they do not include the energetic costs and inefficiencies of the conversion process, the costs of disposal of toxic by-products, or the biological costs of digestion and growth.

The biological approach further reduces the estimate of energetic recovery efficiency by considering the inefficiencies of conversion due to the imperfection of biological structures and by including the biological costs of digestion, of transport, and of storage.

Inefficiencies in brood production place energetic stresses on honey bee colonies.
