The common thresher is a fairly robust shark with a torpedo-shaped trunk and a short, broad head.
The raptorial appendages are broad proximally and apparently too robust to attach to the short trunk segments, except perhaps the most anterior ones.
They had shorter, more robust limbs, heavily built axial skeletons (trunks), and large heads and are thought to have shared the common lemur trait of low basal metabolic rates, making them slow-moving.
All three of the allometric relationships developed here wet fruit weight, trunk diameter and pruning weight showed relatively robust coefficients of determination when regressed against C content (Fig. 6) (i.e., R2 > 0.85).
Response surface methodology is used to establish robust and user-friendly predictive equations that relate responses of a complex detailed trunk finite element biomechanical model to its input variables during sagittal symmetric static lifting activities.
The Robust Tracking-Learning-Detection algorithm estimates the positions of the targets attached to the trunk and heels of the patient.
It should be noted that the pattern of mutations mapped to the trunk branches and, accordingly, the dn/ds estimates for the trunk is highly robust to the specific choice of isolates from the side branches inasmuch as all of these branches are represented.
Taken together, these results confirmed that the induction of fos expression in specific regions of the developing CNS and trunk muscle of 2-day-old zebrafish embryos after treatment with convulsant compounds is a robust transcriptional response, consistent with the initiation of seizures in the CNS and the onset of convulsions in the trunk musculature.
Therefore, it is important to examine tumor clonal structure and identify common mutations located in the trunk of the phylogenetic tree, which may help understand target therapy resistance and discover more robust therapeutic approaches.
Although Hong Kong has a robust surveillance and reporting system for cases of HPAI virus infection, it accounts for a comparatively low level of the trunk of the influenza A(H5N1) virus genealogy, 6%9595% CI 4%12%%).
