Sentence examples for the metamorphosis process from inspiring English sources

In this work, the matching problem between two free-form parametric surfaces, S0 u, v) and S1 u, v), has been considered in the context of a first stage of the metamorphosis process, which is defined as gradual and continuous transformation of one key shape into another.

Suppressed metamorphosis rates of Acropora spp. larvae after a 2 h exposure to acidified seawater may indicate the possibility of abruption of the metamorphosis process, such as relative gene and protein expression.

Moreover, Northern blotting revealed the presence of miR-263b throughout the metamorphosis process, although high expression was only evident in day 6 and day 7 pupae in microarray experiments.

The metamorphosis processes involve tissue differentiation mediated by differential gene expression and protein synthesis [20] [23].

If negative effects on metamorphosis are observed, these may be caused by a lack of energy for metamorphosis and/or by some impact of acidified seawater on the metamorphosis processes.

If the metamorphosis rate in acidified seawater decreases after short-term exposure, then the metamorphosis processes are more likely to be impacted by acidified seawater, and it can be concluded that suppressed metamorphosis is not only the result of an energy shortage.

We dissected fat bodies of the tightly staged larvae (egg laying for 5 hours) with PTEN mutant and control eye discs early in the third instar (72 h under standard conditions and 120 h under starvation conditions) to avoid any changes in gene expression associated with the metamorphosis processes taking place in the fat body.

Predictions about the metamorphoses could have been possible only within the same fixed intervals and they would simply reflect the proportion of metamorphoses seen in the data within the same interval, whereas the parametric survival regression provides a continuous time model for the underlying metamorphosis process (Fig. 2) and allows one to derive predictions for any freely chosen interval.

More than 20 genes are expressed exclusively at the fifth instar larval stage, and about 7 genes are expressed highly over the entire metamorphosis process.

At the embryonic stage the body plan is being formed, while key metamorphosis processes occur during the pupal stage.

In Drosophila, MMPs have been co-opted for maggot specific metamorphosis processes including head evasion and notum connation [38].
