Sentence examples for flux of nutrients from inspiring English sources

In this case a rise in the level of the allosteric effector would affect the flux of nutrients along that pathway in a manner analogous to the feedback phenomena of homeostatic processes.

The flux of nutrients along each metabolic pathway is governed chiefly by two factors: (1) the availability of substrates on which pacemaker, or key, enzymes of the pathway can act and (2) the intracellular levels of specific metabolites that affect the reaction rates of pacemaker enzymes.

We examine the Mekong, one of the world largest rivers, to assess on a whole-of-system scale, the spatial, monthly and inter-annual flux of nutrients and stoichiometric ratios using a huge data-set (1985 2011).

Subsequently, we evaluate three common principles that unite these two research areas by explaining the patterns, concentrations, and direction of the flux of nutrients and energy through the species in diverse interaction webs.

The objective of the present studies was to determine whether an increased dietary supply of these vitamins would change the net flux of nutrients through the rumen, the portal-drained viscera (PDV), the total splanchnic tissues (TSP), and the liver.

For example, the practice of replacing milk cows at a rate of 0.3 or more of the herd per year creates a significant flux of nutrients in cull cow carcasses and requires maintenance of replacement animals.

In several polluted eastern U.S. estuaries and in some estuaries of western Europe (e.g., the Scheldt of Belgium and The Netherlands), all of the dissolved silica brought into the estuarine waters by rivers is removed by phytoplankton growth (primarily diatoms) resulting from excess fluxes of nutrients and organic matter.

Hence, SGD integrates the recirculating sea water and fluxes of nutrients from sea to costal aquifers (Swarzenski and Baskaran 2007).

Ecological networks are quantitative, graph-based descriptions of ecosystems, consisting of compartments (trophospecies and nutrient pools) that exchange fluxes of nutrients or energy.

The effect of the supply of metabolizable protein on splanchnic fluxes of nutrients and hormones was measured in six catheterized late-lactation Holstein cows in a crossover design.

On d 34 or 35, net fluxes of nutrients and hormones across the portal-drained viscera, the liver, and total splanchnic tissues were determined.
