Sentence examples for gap preferences from inspiring English sources

This cell "packing" reflects, as mentioned above, that both the Htr and Hm gap preferences commonly included specific adhesion properties.

It is to note that the above-mentioned idea of activation mechanism (Fig. 2b) and both the Htr and Hm gap preferences commonly include specific adhesion properties.

(5) GAP PREFERENCE means orders of preferred penetrable gaps for cell movement.

Moreover, and perhaps concerning to more industrialised countries where there have been efforts to "close the gender gap", preference for careers along gender lines appears to be stronger where individual subject choice and curriculum may unwittingly contribute to "perpetuating gender stereotypes and…exacerbating gender segregation in science" (Sikora & Pokropek 2012, p. 256).

Several parameter sets in which ACTIVATION THRESHOLD, DRAGGING TIME, SINGLE MOVING DISTANCE, and GAP PREFERENCE were varied were then explored.

In the first series of simulations, the two cell types were given different ACTIVATION THRESHOLD values but DRAGGING TIME, SINGLE MOVING DISTANCE and GAP PREFERENCE parameters were kept the same.

While the three parameters mentioned above are related to cellular motility, the fourth parameter – GAP PREFERENCE – determines the direction of cell movement [ 49- 52].

When GAP PREFERENCE of both cell types was set at Htr, the "inside and outside" pattern of cell sorting was reproducibly attained using certain parameter sets (Fig. 6c,d); however, an "inside and outside" configuration was not obtained when the GAP PREFERENCE of both cell types was set at Hm (Fig. 6g l).

In this study, we implemented several parameters to the cell model, but varied only one of the four parameters, ACTIVATION THRESHOLD, DRAGGING TIME, SINGLE MOVING DISTANCE, and GAP PREFERENCE, for each cell type in each simulation; all other parameters were kept the same for all cells in the simulation.

When the DRAGGING TIME of the light cell type was ≤ 10 and that of the dark cell type was equal to 30, the "inside and outside" configuration of cell-sorting occurred when the ACTIVATION THRESHOLD equaled to 0.4, the SINGLE MOVING DISTANCE equaled to 1, and the GAP PREFERENCE was Htr (Fig. 6).

When the SINGLE MOVING DISTANCE values of the light cell type and the dark cell type were set at 2 and 1, respectively, the dark cells became localized near the center of the aggregate and the light cells surrounded the cluster of dark cells when the ACTIVATION THRESHOLD equaled to 0.4, the DRAGGING TIME equaled to 30, and the GAP PREFERENCE was Htr (Fig. 7).
