Sentence examples for feeding contexts from inspiring English sources

More convincing evidence for deception comes from systematic observations that demonstrate that lower ranking individuals spontaneously produce hiccups in feeding contexts in which dominant individuals can easily monopolize access to contested food resources [Wheeler, 2009].

Taken together, the contention that contextual variables are important in driving receiver responses to terrestrial predator associated calls among tufted capuchins seems to be the best supported explanation for why receivers tend to ignore such calls in competitive feeding contexts.

Tufted capuchins, therefore, may be less likely to interpret hiccups produced during competitive feeding contexts as indicative of the presence of a predator than they would the same call type produced in noncompetitive contexts.

The aim of this study was to develop an instrument to measure parent affect specific to the feeding context and determine its validity and reliability.

Functionally, this behavior may inform other tamarins of the actions the caller will take in a feeding context and whether a preferable food source is available.

In nature, during maturation wolves learn to take into account the behaviour of their pack mates in a feeding context.

Given a plant-based diet in both species, a broad picture of plant phenology (i.e. the feeding context) was obtained by assessing the proportions of trees and lianas (n = 157) bearing fruits, flowers, and leaves in Malaza forest.

Finally, unpredictability of food supplies would have driven lemur social evolution toward strict female dominance over males with female priority in a feeding context in gregarious species, which is unusual among primates.

One hiccup included in the acoustic analysis and classified as a spontaneous false alarm was recorded in a natural feeding context rather than during the platform experiments described above.

However, due to their increased adiposity mice lacking SIRT1 in POMC neurons are expected to have a shorter lifespan compared to normal controls, at least in the HC diet feeding context that is the peculiar dietary environment of industrialized societies.

Together, these results suggest that, in addition to sensing slow systemic changes in energy balance, AgRP and POMC neurons may also integrate this information with complex environmental cues regarding food availability and feeding context, in order to dynamically adjust feeding behaviors at timescales from hours to seconds.
