The ability to record well-isolated action potentials from individual neurons in naturally behaving animals is crucial for understanding neural mechanisms underlying natural behaviors.
Xenophanes was less a philosopher of nature in the manner of Parmenides, who looked for abstract principles underlying natural change, than a poet and religious reformer who applied generally philosophical and scientific notions to popular conceptions.
The medical examiner's office listed the cause of death, which occurred at 12 35 p.m., as "hyperthermia due to exposure to high environmental temperature with underlying natural disease".
The victims were two women from the Bronx, ages 78 and 72, who died of "hyperthermia due to exposure to high environmental temperature with underlying natural disease," the medical examiner's office said.
Because climate synopses compiled from instrumental records cannot distinguish underlying natural increases in storminess from anthropogenic effects, detected increases in contemporary storminess may not be a reliable indicator of human-induced climate change.
Social constructionists do not believe in biological reductionism (i.e. human behavior is a result of underlying natural essence).
And the deaths—of species, as much as of individuals can be understood to have underlying natural causes.
Principal components analysis (PCA) was used to decipher various underlying natural and anthropogenic processes creating these distinct water classes.
In contrast, low NO3 − in some samples suggests little pollution and/or the underlying natural geology in those areas did not have the anion (Kaka et al. 2011).
A key observation underlying natural selection is that, in principle, populations have the capacity to increase in numbers exponentially (or "geometrically").
