Such developmental plasticity of C. elegans nematodes, which are self-fertilizing homozygous animals producing offspring with negligible genetic variation, could increase the probability of survival in changing environments.
If left uncharacterized, temporal variations in RF exposure could increase uncertainty and obscure the ability to evaluate the long-term effects of residential nonionizing radiation exposures.
Of course, it is possible that post-transcriptional or post-translational regulatory processes could increase the variation in functional levels of these factors (both negatively and positively) in different neuronal populations.
Cardiac arrythmias could increase the variation of both the lithium dilution (LiDCO) and/or the PulseCO measurement.
Furthermore, there were differences related to age, gender, and mouse strains, which all together could increase experimental variation and hamper the identification of genuine biological effects.
Alternatively, fluctuations in the direction of selection, quite possible in marginal populations exposed to changes in population densities [ 52], could increase phenotypic variation [ 53].
An a priori decision was made to not automatically truncate textwords to capture all word ending variations (e.g. cardiomyopath*) as this could increase the filter's recall to the detriment of precision.
This method was first discovered in the early 20th century when plant biologists found that exposing seeds to certain chemical compounds or radioactive rays could increase the frequency of genetic variations.
There could be variations within each of the three options as well that could increase or decrease the number of troops needed, officials said.
Deeper knowledge about variations in patients' experiences and actions could help healthcare professionals to improve pain management and could increase patients' participation in pain assessments.
