Mill's theory of judgements and their truth involves a rejection of 'conceptualism', the view that the objects of judgements are mental, and that 'a proposition is the expression of a relation between two ideas' (1843, 109).
Defining "[a]n operation [as] the expression of a relation between the structures of its result and of its bases" (5.22), Wittgenstein states that whereas "[a] function cannot be its own argument,… an operation can take one of its own results as its base" (5.251).
This does not dictate that proteins and genetic products are one and the same, but rather allows the expression of a membership relation at a much finer semantic resolution such that proteins can be understood as one, but not the sole, kind of gene product (which also includes RNA).
And, most relevantly, singular properties and relations like being a student of Quine that involve expressions for a relation and an individual are constituted by those very entities, in this case, in this case, the relation being a student of and Quine himself.
If the infinite superiority is in reference to power or being, it is not obviously to the point; if it is an expression of an ethical relation, the argument is circular.
The L-PHA resistance test of a hygromycin-resistant transfectant population is not a directly quantitative test as it depends on the level of expression of a transgene in relation to hygromycin resistance.
It would therefore appear that two, largely independent, age effects exist, one connected with the absolute expression of a gene in relation to age (age-factor 1) and the other with the residual variation possibly connected with variation between individuals or with the interrelation of expression of the different genes (age-factor 2).
A person is the entire way he or she relates to, or is an expression of, her relation to the world, through what Merleau-Ponty calls a style.
In fact, the objects signified by complex expressions are compounds of (at least) two of the objects signified by simple expressions and a relation of identity (or non-identity, in the case of a true negative sentence), while a simple object is an item in a category (i.e., either a singular substance, or a substantial form, or an accidental form).
This is an expression of an institutional power relation, whereby the Principal confines the range of choices available to the Agent, thereby directing the actions of the Agent to fulfil the priorities of the Principal.
In fact, the objects signified by complex expressions are composites of those signified by simple expressions, together with a relation of identity (or non-identity, in the case of a true negative sentence) holding between them.
