The elegantly slender fingers contrast sharply with the creature's merciless mien.
Similarly, although relatively short compared to other pterosaurs, the mandibular rami of azhdarchids remain long and slender in contrast to the deep, robust rami of Rynchops [6], suggesting that azhdarchid jaw muscles were relatively weak compared to the enlarged, drag- and impact-resistant jaw musculature of skim-feeding birds.
Rendall's slender book, by contrast, is like a piece of chamber music, its individual voices exposed in the often discordant testimony of a small group of men – and one woman – competing to claim credit for their contribution to the saga.
He was drawn to stories of the American South (in high school he penned a Civil War drama); and he once claimed that he enrolled at Princeton because in the annual rivalry football game "Yale always seemed to nose them out in the last quarter" -- the Yale men seeming brawny and brutal, the Princetonians by contrast "slender and keen and romantic".
In contrast, slender tufted adapting L5 pyramidal neurons are more sensitive to adenosine (i.e., showed on average a larger hyperpolarization) than broad tufted RS L5 neurons that were primarily modulated by adrenergic, muscarinic, and D2 agonists (see Supplementary Table for an overview of discussed studies).
According to Baha el Din (2006) [ 98], some morphological characters appear to correlate with environmental factors, with populations from hyper-arid places showing a very slender body, less contrasting pattern and tubular nostrils, while populations from more mesic areas being usually more robust, with thick limbs, big heads and marked pattern [ 31, 36, 98].
The teeth of Planohybodus, in contrast, were slender and pointed the sort usually associated with grasping and tearing at flesh.
If a rhizome is disease-free, whether purchased from East Branch or H Mart, it can produce baby ginger of rare beauty, all pink and slender and ivory, in contrast to the majority of fall produce, a khaki parade of lettuces and squashes.
In contrast, the slender cell shape and delayed cell adhesion on the CaP substrate indicated that the cells did not interact well with the substrate.
Mr. Hovhaness, an American who died in 2000, loved big, often violent contrasts, with slender, modal-flavored reed solos set next to sudden pounding drums.
