Sentence examples for metamorphosis triggered from inspiring English sources

By stage 9, Capitella larvae are competent to undergo metamorphosis, triggered by stimuli in the sediment.

These results show that larval metamorphosis triggered by TBP generally occurred within 6 h of exposure (Fig. 5A, B), whereas settlement of larvae in response to the CCA H. onkodes took as long as 24 h (Fig. 3 6D).

These developmental differences with or without metamorphosis trigger the differences in caste systems at least to some extent [ 7, 8].

In Drosophila, metamorphosis is triggered by ecdysone synthesis from the prothoracic gland (PG), whereas growth rate is increased by insulin/insulin growth factor signalling (IIS).

In Drosophila larvae, metamorphosis is triggered by the steroid hormone ecdysone [1], which is synthesized in the prothoracic gland (PG), whereas larval growth rate is increased by insulin-like peptides (dilps) released from the insulin producing cells (IPCs) of the larval brain [2].

In Manduca, metamorphosis is triggered when ecdysteroid titers surge in the final instar, and the final body size is determined by a combination of factors that regulate the timing of ecdysteroid secretion.

Thus, rising TH levels during larval development bring about metamorphosis by triggering transcriptional programs that activate tissue remodeling, cellular differentiation, and tissue regression developmental processes that transform larval phenotypes into adult phenotypes (Shi 2000).

One possibility was that the loss of JH shortened a key growth phase and triggered premature metamorphosis, causing smaller larvae to transform into smaller adults.

Based on the progression of lamprey developmental BA, it is possible to identify the factor(s) associated with the first signs of inflammation at the onset of liver metamorphosis that may be triggered by metamorphic signal(s).

This response to starvation is similar to that described in Onthophagus, where starvation is known to trigger metamorphosis [55].

Hym-248 is one member of the GLWamide peptide family, which is thought to act hormonally to trigger metamorphosis in some hydrozoan and coral species [31], [45] [46].
