On the contrary, it is the ultimate source of all things; it is pure being (benti).
Nobody knows the ultimate source of particular diamonds it sells, as all are mixed together in London.
However, groundwater is likely the ultimate source of As, as it has the highest As concentrations.
But the authentic individual will be the one who takes up the terrifying freedom of being the ultimate source of values, embraces it, and acts with a clarity and firmness suitable to his or her best understanding of what is right in this context.
Although mutation provides the ultimate source of genetic variation, it typically leads to decreased fitness.
The architects of the MS stressed that mutation is the ultimate source of variation, but it is not a proximate cause of evolution (i.e., evolution does not begin with a new mutation), nor an effective agent of change: "mutation merely supplies the gene pool with genetic variation; it is selection that induces evolutionary change" (p. 613 of [ 23]; for further documentation of this view, see [ 34]).
While mutation is the ultimate source of genetic variation [55], it has been argued that this alone is insufficient to provide the variation to permit major evolutionary advances [68].
Nucleotide substitution rate is the ultimate source of genetic variation and it is the substrate for molecular evolution.
The economist Joseph Schumpeter called this "the process of creative destruction," and while it may be the ultimate source of our modern-day prosperity, it also comes with tremendous short-run costs, often borne by those who can least afford them.
These general genetic characteristics of the DS accord with our hypothesis that it is neural crest genes specifically that are the ultimate source of the DS and, in particular, that it involves multiple mild loss-of-function mutations in several of these genes.
Financing for the Global Fund will be up by roughly 20% from 2008-2010, this will remain far below what it needed to guarantee coverage.Multilateral aid makes it hard for individual countries to take credit because it obscures the ultimate source of funding.
