In our biologist's principle-based organismal biology class, he emphasizes the importance of gradient-driven flows, such as the flow of fluids described by the Hagen-Poiseuille (H-P) equation, which is critical for understanding the long-distance transport of fluids in large animals and plants.
Our results demonstrate the importance of gradients and boundaries of Ds and Fj expression in the generation of cellular asymmetry.
Molecular gradients associated with pathways exhibiting oscillatory behavior have been documented, and morphogens demonstrate the importance of gradients as a regulatory mode in biology.
This paper reviews the importance of temperature gradient induced moisture diffusion in powder beds.
Although our results illustrate the importance of the gradient, existing modeling and experimental results do not allow us to distinguish between these two hypotheses.
As for the mitochondrial community, as evidenced by the title of one reference "The renaissance of mitochondrial pH", they are already re-assessing the relative importance of concentration gradient vs. capacitive charging in mitochondrial energetics.
The importance of cytokine gradients has been illustrated in the developmental context, where SDF-1α gradient is primordial during migration of the zebrafish posterior lateral line primordium [ 50].
The importance of altitudinal gradients is yet to be explained fully with more study required.
It is demonstrated that the type of wave breaking controls the relative importance of pressure gradients and bed shear stresses in the sediment transport within the surf zone.
Dissolution of lidocaine from single crystals into phosphate buffer and 0.5% (w/v) agarose hydrogel at pH 7.4 was investigated to shed light on the importance of density gradients under dissolution conditions in the absence of convective flow.
The importance of solutal gradients, which differs from one type of nanofluid to another, directly affects the dynamic state and heat transfer (illustrated by figure 9 and 10).
