Because they also behave differently toward the two different predators, Marler and Evans suggest that the alarm cries functionally refer to the kind of predator approaching.
In this context, the term functionally conserved refers to the identification of similar nrESS that may be common to Gammaproteobacteria. Two nrESS were considered as functionally conserved if their alignment had a score below the threshold (≤0.3) and, in conjunction, they were present in more than 75%% of the species analyzed.
FBA exists in two non-homologous but functionally equivalent forms, referred to as class I and class II [ 9].
The TOR kinase assembles into two structurally and functionally distinct complexes, referred to as TOR complex 1 (TORC1) and 2 (TORC2) [ 8].
Altogether, these data show that the PIH1 homology region encompasses two structurally and functionally separable domains hereafter referred to as PIH-N and PIH-C which are linked by an intervening region of variable length and sequence.
Functionally, they are referred to working memory and monitoring (Rottschy et al., 2012; Wagner et al., 2001), self-reflection (Herwig et al., 2012), cognitive control or cognitive conflict (Cieslik et al., 2010; Eickhoff & Grefkes, 2011; Jakobs et al., 2009; Milham et al., 2003) and different aspects of decision-making (Krain et al., 2006; Plassmann et al., 2007; Prochnow et al., 2013a).
Alarm call systems are especially vulnerable to exploitation through the use of functionally deceptive (hereafter referred to simply as "deceptive") false alarms, as the cost of ignoring an alarm call that is actually associated with a predator detection is potentially very high [Searcy & Nowicki, 2005].
The increased adoption of geometric morphometrics - which utilizes distances among functionally-important characters referred to as landmarks - has been underpinned by a desire to quantify shape precisely across diverse questions, often to understand changes in shape independent of size [ 56] and can delimit previously-undetected species [ 57].
Within each "main effect of time" image, functionally defined ROIs (also referred to as "clusters," below) were next identified using methods already established in the literature (Wheeler et al. 2005; Velanova et al. 2008).
Functional segregation refers to the anatomical segregation of functionally specialised cortical and subcortical systems, while functional integration refers to the coordination and coupling of functionally segregated systems [ 1 ].
