Presumably, at least one judge there, Merrick B. Garland, won't hear the appeal — since he is otherwise occupied — but it would be plausible to expect that whatever the outcome of the first round, the losing party will ask the full circuit to hear the case.
Israel's purported target is Hamas, and while Hamas is no innocent bystander, control of the oil and natural gas reserves discovered in the Occupied Territories is a more plausible backstory to the recent assault.
Spatially varying selection in European eel regarding osmoregulation seems plausible, since eels occupy highly variable habitats across Europe in terms of salinity, including both fresh and salt-water (i.e. marine and brackish) habitats [ 45].
If a similar calculation is based on the 33 Mbp exons that we can estimate from the Fugu genome project, then U tot ≈ 0.88 seems plausible (all genes occupy 108 Mbp and we estimate that this includes roughly 75 Mbp introns from Figure 2 in [ 153]).
None of the plausible Republican candidates can occupy it so easily.
The divergent terrestrial ecology of D. polylepis compared to the arboreal niche occupied by all other mambas makes it plausible that this major difference in venom composition is due to dietary variation.
Other possible explanations are less plausible; horizontal transfer between salamanders and sea anemones, which occupy different ecosystems (terrestrial and marine), is unlikely, as is widespread loss of this TE lineage from all other metazoan taxa.
He can't win the primary, the argument goes, and he will occupy the space to the left of Clinton, thus denying it to more plausible candidates, such as Martin O'Malley, the former governor of Maryland.
In our opinion, it is plausible that XOS could be a competitive inhibitor of TrCel7A by occupying the active site in place of the substrate.
Therefore, it is plausible that Pol IV or Pol V complexes bearing active site mutations can bind and occupy their templates.
