By quantifying the metabolic cost and kinematics of locomotion under unloaded and loaded conditions we can estimate the energetic requirements of functions such as those required to produce the muscular force and mechanical work to move the limbs in birds (Marsh et al., 2006; McGowan et al., 2006; Tickle et al., 2010) and mammals (Steudel, 1990; Taylor et al., 1980).
Coastal areas of the world are under treat due to the conflicting requirements of functions such as habitation and/or recreation, which affect the strategic asset of coastal scenery itself.
The view that many derived from the Modern Synthesis had been that organismal structures like segmented bodies, eyes, limbs, and hearts, evolved essentially de novo, multiple times, independently in various lineages, in close conformity with the requirements of function.
If high primary sequence constraint is not a requirement of function then selection for maintained function might not result in detectable signals of reduced diversity and divergence at and around functional lncRNA loci.
Although any potential neutrophil apoptosis-inducing proresolution therapy needs to be balanced with the absolute requirement of functioning neutrophils for protection against invading pathogens, preclincal experiments have not revealed any impaired ability to control nonsterile inflammation.
Our study shows the diversity of miRNA regulations responding to the complex requirements of biological functions and contributes to understand the complex function and regulatory mechanism of miRNAs at a network scale.
The cost, size and power requirements of wireless functions are falling rapidly, so some unlikely candidates are now being connected to networks.
The proposed algorithm fulfills the performance requirements of hash functions.
Timing requirements of SoC functions are compared against estimated, simulated, or measured response times.
Researchers are beginning to develop taxonomies of different knowledge domains in order to specify the requirements of engineering functions in various manufacturing enterprises.
The behavior of the discretization errors, their dependence on the mass lumping scheme used, proof of convergence, the character of convergence, and the requirements of shape functions for convergence are all discussed.
