NHTSA chief Mark Rosekind said this summer that "equivalency" between human and machine is far from good enough.
Bremmer, F. et al. Polymodal motion processing in posterior parietal and premotor cortex: a human fMRI study strongly implies equivalencies between humans and monkeys.
If they were cloned, such interbreeding may happen, and the offspring of that union would most certainly receive human rights, so the potential reproductive equivalency of Neanderthals and humans suggests they would be considered humans, and the cloning of Neanderthals is equally unethical.
Neanderthals would receive human rights not only because of their legal equivalency to humans, but also for their behavioral and reproductive equivalency.
Therefore, OECD have stated, that i.e. for percutaneous absorption studies artificial human skin models could be used also, given equivalency is proven [ 24].
Like PCDDs and PCDFs, coplanar PCBs are aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonists, and PCB-126 accounts for 52% of the toxic equivalency of dioxin-like PCBs in human tissues (NTP 2006b; Safe 1993).
Establishing equivalencies between biological reaction networks and human engineered systems enabled us to uncover the functional role of the receptor downregulation/desensitization.
This is illustrated by the more pronounced decrease in R0 generally seen with increased ITN coverage (across the x-axis) than with increased habitat destruction (up the y-axis) in Figure 4. Integrating both control measures would seem more appropriate for locations of high human density, where the efficiency of the alternate strategies approaches equivalency.
Comments on Van den Berg, et al. Toxic equivalency factors (TEFs) for PCBs, PCDDs, PCDFs for humans and wildlife.
Although feral cats do not depend on humans, they derive from cats that did; and the genetic equivalency is informative.
