Whereas matter gets less dense as the Universe expands, since the same number of particles occupy a larger volume, the density of dark energy remains constant over time.
Whereas matter clumps and clusters together under the influence of gravity, dark energy would penetrate all of space equally, from the densest galaxy clusters to the deepest, emptiest cosmic void.
The drawing of a sharp distinction between spirit and matter has been invariably motivated by a value judgment: namely, that spirit (or soul) is intrinsically good and of transcendent origin, whereas matter is essentially evil and corrupting.
Also, potency is relational, whereas matter is absolute.
"In tennis or golf or boxing, the mystique is the individual," Falk says, "whereas, no matter how great Bill Russell or Bob Cousy was, it was the Celtic dynasty — it was always institutional.
Whereas, organic matter, crude fiber, nitrogen free extract and total fiber contents in the biological treated olive cake were decreased than that of untreated OC (raw), while crude protein was increased from 9.5 to 20.2 % in the treated OC.
Whereas gray matter volumes generally follows an inverted U shaped trajectory with peak size occurring at different ages in different regions, white matter volumes increase throughout the first 4 decades.
"At the very least, company management must now consult, and in many cases bargain, with employees and unions on a wide range of matters, whereas in the past they enjoyed almost unlimited autonomy".
Landscape composition had the largest effect at fine spatial scale, whereas configuration mattered most at coarser scales, indicating scale-dependency.
Whereas ordinary matter makes up only five per cent of the universe's energy, dark matter contributes twenty-five per cent; the remainder is a mysterious entity called "dark energy".
