It will be noted that point f has seven nearest neighbors, h and e have six, and p has only one, while the remaining points have intermediate numbers.

In any social system in which communications have an importance comparable with that of production and other human factors, a point like f in Figure 2 would ( other things being equal ) be the dwelling place for the community leader, while e and h would house the next most important citizens.

A man named Blaine Smythe, with `` y '' and `` e '' but pronounced without them, had been fired at Payne's insistence.

The family moved north across the Ohio River to free ( i. e., non-slave ) territory and made a new start in what was then Perry County but is now Spencer County, Indiana.

Altruism is a motivation to provide something of value to a party who must be anyone but oneself, while duty focuses on a moral obligation towards a specific individual ( e. g., a god, a king ), or collective ( e. g., a government ).

Pure altruism consists of sacrificing something for someone other than the self ( e. g. sacrificing time, energy or possessions ) with no expectation of any compensation or benefits, either direct, or indirect ( e. g., receiving recognition for the act of giving ).

This religion preaches the view of Ahimsa – to live and let live, thereby not harming sentient beings, i. e. uncompromising reverence for all life.

A constant concern for Allah ( i. e. God ) results in a careful attitude towards people, animals, and other things in this world.

This concept was emphasized by Sufi mystics like Rabia al-Adawiyya who paid attention to the difference between dedication to Allah ( i. e. God ) and dedication to people.

The so-called " Four Field Approach " has its origins in Boasian Anthropology, dividing the discipline in the four crucial and interrelated fields of sociocultural, biological, linguistic, and archaic anthropology ( e. g. archaeology ).

Animation can be made with either hand rendered art, computer generated imagery, or three-dimensional objects, e. g. puppets or clay figures, or a combination of techniques.

Greenberg ( 1963 ) and others considered it a subgroup of Cushitic, while others have raised doubts about it being part of Afroasiatic at all ( e. g. Theil 2006 ).

A few ( e. g. Fejervarya raja ) can inhabit brackish water and even survive ( though not thrive ) in seawater, but there are no true marine amphibians.

Several hundred frog species in adaptive radiations ( e. g., Eleutherodactylus, the Pacific Platymantines, the Australo-Papuan microhylids, and many other tropical frogs ), however, do not need any water for breeding in the wild.

Compound comparisons typically compare two sets of groups means where one set has two or more groups ( e. g., compare average group means of group A, B and C with group D ).

* One-way ANOVA is used to test for differences among two or more independent groups ( means ), e. g. different levels of urea application in a crop.

* Repeated measures ANOVA is used when the same subjects are used for each treatment ( e. g., in a longitudinal study ).

The number of carbon atoms is used to define the size of the alkane ( e. g., C < sub > 2 </ sub >- alkane ).

Saturated hydrocarbons can also combine any of the linear, cyclic ( e. g., polycyclic ) and branching structures, and they are still alkanes ( no general formula ) as long as they are acyclic ( i. e., having no loops ). They also have single covalent bonds between their carbons.

In German, words starting with sch-( constituting the German phoneme ) would be intercalated between words with initial sca-and sci-( all incidentally loanwords ) instead of this graphic cluster appearing after the letter s, as though it were a single letter — a lexicographical policy which would be de rigueur in a dictionary of Albanian, i. e. dh -, ë -, gj -, ll -, rr -, th -, xh-and zh-( all representing phonemes and considered separate single letters ) would follow the letters d, e, g, l, n, r, t, x and z respectively.

Thus, although some things may be certain, they have little to do with Dasein's sense of care and existential anxiety, e. g., in the face of death.

Adventurous experiences create psychological and physiological arousal, which can be interpreted as negative ( e. g. fear ) or positive ( e. g. flow ), and which can be detrimental as stated by the Yerkes-Dodson law.

Since modchips oftentimes hook into fundamental functions of the host system that cannot be removed or adjusted, these measures may not completely prevent a modchip from functioning but only prompt an adjustment of its installation process or programming, e. g. to include measures to make it undetectable (" stealth ") to its host system.

In astronomy and cosmology, baryonic dark matter is dark matter ( matter that is undetectable by its emitted radiation, but whose presence can be inferred from gravitational effects on visible matter ) composed of baryons, i. e. protons and neutrons and combinations of these, such as non-emitting ordinary atoms.

If surgical therapy ( i. e., radical prostatectomy ) is successful at removing all prostate tissue ( and prostate cancer ), PSA becomes undetectable within a few weeks.

Some Morpholinos knock down expression so effectively that, after degradation of preexisting proteins, the targeted proteins become undetectable by Western blot ( e. g., figure 1 in :).

Recalled by the newly-elected Jimmy Carter in 1977, Duke briefly worked as a laetrile farmer before being appointed as the manager of the Washington Redskins, ostensibly for his experience in " sports medicine " i. e. performance-enhancing drugs.

Often this can be inferred by the absence of a normal component ( e. g., one gene ).

When scientists transfer a gene from one cell into another cell in order to express the new genetic material as a protein in the recipient cell, the cDNA will be added to the recipient ( rather than the entire gene ), because the DNA for an entire gene may include DNA that does not code for the protein or that interrupts the coding sequence of the protein ( e. g., introns ).

* In genetics, it can stand for a gene deletion, e. g. the CCR5-Δ32 a deletion of the CCR5 at the 32nd base pair segment

Changes in an environmental variable ( e. g. human nutrition ) may cause different genes to be gene expression | expressed during childhood.

Genetics deals with the molecular structure and function of genes, gene behavior in context of a cell or organism ( e. g. dominance and epigenetics ), patterns of inheritance from parent to offspring, and gene distribution, variation and change in populations, such as through Genome-Wide Association Studies.

GMOs are used in biological, Anal lube, and medical research, production of pharmaceutical drugs, experimental medicine ( e. g. gene therapy ), and agriculture ( e. g. golden rice ).

In germ line gene therapy, Germ cells, i. e., sperm or eggs, are modified by the introduction of functional genes, which are integrated into their genomes.

* Regulation of gene expression, a process in which a molecule ( e. g. a drug ) induces ( i. e. initiates or enhances ) or inhibits the expression of an enzyme

The word intron is derived from the term intragenic region ; i. e., a region inside a gene.

Several of the bacterial viruses ( bacteriophage ) that infect E. coli also have been very useful for the study of gene structure and gene regulation ( e. g. phages Lambda and T4 ).

:* Chicken ( Gallus gallus domesticus )-used for developmental studies, as it is an amniote and excellent for micromanipulation ( e. g. tissue grafting ) and over-expression of gene products

Microevolution can be contrasted with macroevolution, which is the occurrence of large-scale changes in gene frequencies in a population over a geological time period ( i. e. consisting of extended microevolution ).

Other examples include aberrant chromosomal fragments, such as double minute chromosomes, that can arise during artificial gene amplifications or in pathologic processes ( e. g., cancer cell transformation ).

As promoters are typically immediately adjacent to the gene in question, positions in the promoter are designated relative to the transcriptional start site, where transcription of DNA begins for a particular gene ( i. e., positions upstream are negative numbers counting back from-1, for example-100 is a position 100 base pairs upstream ).

This technology is of use, not only for research purposes, but also for clinical gene therapy aiming at the long-term correction of genetic defects, e. g., in stem and progenitor cells.

Southern blots performed with restriction enzyme-digested genomic DNA may be used to determine the number of sequences ( e. g., gene copies ) in a genome.
