Antitrust experts have said that Telefònica was likely to persuade regulators to clear its bid for E-Plus by giving up some spectrum and easing the entry of new competitors, a move that could also trigger a phase of consolidation in Europe's packed telecom sector.
A small random change can trigger a phase transition analogous to the transformation of very cold liquid beer into solid beer when the cap of the bottle is popped (suddenly reducing the pressure in the bottle).
Mucin-2 trimers are compact structures under the conditions of the secretory pathway, where the pH is low and calcium is present, but these structures partially unfold and greatly expand in more basic environments, such as in the colon, triggering a phase transition into a mucus polymer gel.
This protocol elicited a similar 3-hr phase delay, indicating that PDF morning cell firing is not only necessary but also sufficient for a quasi-normal firing-mediated phase-shift at ZT15. 10.7554/eLife.02780.007 Figure 4. Activation of M cells is necessary and sufficient to trigger a phase-shift without light.
The deepening of corolla tubes triggers a second phase of proboscis elongation in pollinators of species X.
In addition, Mqs3 was possibly triggered by a phase transition of water.
The overall agreement in phase between stress rate and seismicity is a reminder of the fact that earthquakes are more likely to be triggered near a phase with a maximum stress rate, when the periodic stress disturbance is relatively small compared to the secular stress accumulation rate (Heki 2003).
This correlation suggests that migration of intermediate progenitors away from hypoxic zones leads to oxidative damage, and thus triggers an early phase of apoptosis.
Medium SSBM-P is fully defined, and during a standard cultivation experiment of 70 h, phosphate was depleted around 35 h after inoculation, triggering a transition phase of approx. 6 h that exited into a distinct production phase with specific productivities of RED and TBP indicating efficient metabolic switching.
The International Monetary Fund warned on Monday of the risk of Russia triggering a fresh phase of the global financial crisis as the plunge in the value of the rouble claimed its first banking victim.
