Alternating current will pass readily, however, and is called a displacement current.
But the virus did not appear to evolve the ability to pass readily from person to person.
Flu experts have warned that if the virus develops the capacity to pass readily from person to person, it could cause a global influenza pandemic.
Sound waves pass readily through the water and into the body of the fish, causing most of the tissues to vibrate in a uniform manner.
Lipid-soluble, nonpolar molecules pass readily through the membrane because they dissolve in the hydrophobic, nonpolar portion of the lipid bilayer.
These microscopic motes -- composed of metals, carbon and other ingredients -- are able to infiltrate the tiniest compartments in the lungs and pass readily into the bloodstream and have been most strongly tied to illness and early death, particularly in people who are already susceptible to respiratory problems.
[2, 3, 4, 5] Viruses pass readily from animal to animal in these operations, and every transmission to another animal spurs the evolution of the virus and brings us closer to a pandemic.
The resistance genes can pass readily from one kind of bacteria to another (Levy 1998).
This behavior can also explain why it can pass readily through cellular and intracellular barriers, in particular membranes.
Water and lipophilic solutes (e.g., gases such as O2 and CO2) are able to diffuse through endothelial cells; they also pass readily through inter-endothelial cell junctions and through endothelial fenestrae.
The transport of cadmium to the brain by dithiocarbamate can be greatly reduced by the incorporation of appropriate hydrophilic groups that prevent the formation of lipid-soluble cadmium complexes that pass readily into the brain.
