"It was possible to adapt to cold environments, for example, by either increasing metabolic heat production, decreasing thermal conductance, or both--the interaction between the two is what really mattered.
Stomatal density, index and operating stomatal conductance measurements: Stomatal features were assessed on both abaxial (lower) and adaxial (upper) leaf surfaces.
Plants under water stress conditions close their stomata, reducing conductance and, consequently, transpiration, and C[O.sub.2] assimilation and concentration in the sub-stomatal chamber (Taiz et al., 2017).
However, the slope of the corresponding molar conductance-mole ratio plots change at the point where the ligand to ions ratio are one, and further additions of the ligand cause no or very slight changes in the molar conductance. Such a conductance behavior is indicative of the formation of ML complexes in solutions.
Skin conductance responses to masked conditioned stimuli: Phylogenetic/ontogenetic factors versus direction of threat?
And, an additive Gaussian white noise is added to current, conductance, and regulation function, respectively, to compare study significant differences in the regulation process; here, the Gaussian white noise [xi] is calculated according to
The proposed power resolution is based on the separation of load current into orthogonal components as active, reactive, scattered conductance, scattered susceptance, unbalanced conductance and unbalanced susceptance currents, which are all related to the conductance and susceptance parameters of the load.
The skin conductance response, also known as the electrodermal response, is the phenomenon that the skin increases conduction of small currents of direct current electricity when either external or internal stimuli occur that are physiologically arousing.
Pharmaceutical company Nivalis Therapeutics (NasdaqGM:NVLS) disclosed on Thursday that it has received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Fast Track designation for its lead investigational drug, N91115, a novel stabilizer of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, for people with cystic fibrosis (CF).
The two-port parameters ensuing from equations (3) have the following expressions: [G.sub.11]=[G.sub.1] - [[G.sub.2] x [G.sub.4]/ [G.sub.3]; [G.sub.12]= [G.sub.2] x [G.sub.4]/ [G.sub.3]; [G.sub.21]= -[G.sub.4]; [G.sub.22]= [G.sub.4] - [G.sub.5] x [G.sub.7]/ [G.sub.6], where ([G.sub.11]) and ([G.sub.22]) are the conductance in short circuit to terminals 11' respectively 22', ([G.sub.12]) and ([G.sub.21]) are the transfer conductance in short circuit.
Elasticity and current-carrying prowess don't usually go together: Conventional wires have little give, while adjustable libers tend to lose electrical conductance as they stretch.
