Alternatively, resources can be invested into somatic maintenance, enhancing survival and longevity at the expense of investments in other energetically demanding functions like reproduction.
In other words, 1.5 "Earths" would be needed to sustain current resource demands or, alternatively, it takes Earth one year and six months to regenerate what is used in one year.
Alternatively, resource-driven increases in effective population sizes may simply increase the opportunity for, and therefore strength of, competition among individuals for access to mates, leading to stronger selection for traits related to intrasexual competition (e.g. in beetles, Moczek 2003; Table 1: H8).
Alternatively, idle resources that were initially allocated for other streams could be re-allocated, avoiding subsequent penalties.
Alternatively, limited resources would impinge the end-users' ability to purchase protection services such as anti-virus, making them more vulnerable.
Ways to compete could have been taking the model to a niche (rather than go head to head against the mass of competition) or alternatively putting resources into finding a novel way to build a customer list.
This can be used, for example, to consolidate existing workloads; the new capability can be used to serve new requests or alternatively unused resources may be turned off to reduce power consumption.
Alternatively, plant resources may not have been limiting because primary productivity was elevated during the Late Cretaceous [ 23, 24].
They are potentially at risk of learning incorrect and potentially unsafe techniques through video, for example where breaches of aseptic technique are unwittingly demonstrated, unless they learn critical appraisal skills or alternatively, learning resources are first screened by faculty.
Alternatively, the resource can provide valuable information for detailed studies of molecular recognition including structure-based ligand design and in understanding ligand cross-reactivity.
