Although the total energy of a system does not change with time, its value may depend on the frame of reference.

Although the 140 mm gun was considered a real interim solution it was decided after the fall of the Soviet Union that the increase in muzzle energy was not worth the increase in weight, and therefore more money was poured into research programs that could augment the muzzle energy of existing guns to match the 140 mm gun without the incrementing weight disadvantages.

Although forests are classified primarily by trees, the concept of a forest ecosystem includes additional species ( such as smaller plants, fungi, bacteria, and animals ) as well as physical and chemical processes such as energy flow and nutrient cycling.

"</ ref > Although this efficiency limitation can be a drawback, an advantage of heat engines is that most forms of energy can be easily converted to heat by processes like exothermic reactions ( such as combustion ), absorption of light or energetic particles, friction, dissipation and resistance.

Although the resulting energy eigenfunctions ( the orbitals ) are not necessarily isotropic themselves, their dependence on the angular coordinates follows completely generally from this isotropy of the underlying potential: the eigenstates of the Hamiltonian ( that is, the energy eigenstates ) can be chosen as simultaneous eigenstates of the angular momentum operator.

Although there are multiple ways of producing free hydrogen, those methods require converting combustible molecules into hydrogen or consuming electric energy.

Although some of his pieces sound similar to those written by minimalist composers, Adams actually rejects the idea of mechanistic procedure-based or process music ; what Adams took away from minimalism was tonality and / or modality, and the rhythmic energy from repetition.

Although the specific mechanisms between mitochondria and the cell cycle regulation is not well understood, studies have shown that low energy cell cycle checkpoints monitor the energy capability before committing to another round of cell division.

Although cargo passes through the pore with the assistance of chaperone proteins, the translocation through the pore itself is not energy dependent.

Although the many forms of life on earth use a range of different nutrients, almost all aerobic organisms carry out oxidative phosphorylation to produce ATP, the molecule that supplies energy to metabolism.

Although this technology is still in the experimental stage, it theoretically has the potential to provide dramatic increases in energy storage capacity.

Although all cells in the green parts of a plant have chloroplasts, most of the energy is captured in the leaves.

Although traditionally such cladograms were generated largely on the basis of morphological characters and originally calculated by hand, genetic sequencing data and computational phylogenetics are now very commonly used in phylogenetic analysis.

Although sunlight is free and abundant, solar electricity is still usually more expensive to produce than large-scale mechanically generated power due to the cost of the panels.

Although little interest was generated among western scientists, Russians held a conference on the subject in 1972, at Kazakh State University.

Although it was paid for by private donations, some from the private Knapp Foundation, the purchase generated quite a controversy, for it was ordered at a time when the nation was undergoing an economic recession.

Although still referred to as " neon ", all other colors are generated with the other noble gases or by many colors of fluorescent lighting.

Although this initially generated a lot of excitement among Saints fans, Ditka's tenure ended up being a failure.

Although stimulus-response mechanisms are the easiest to understand, the nervous system is also capable of controlling the body in ways that do not require an external stimulus, by means of internally generated rhythms of activity.

Although some spatial indices can have issues as regards to routing load-balance in case of a skewed data set, all the spatial indices are more scalable in terms of the number of hops traversed and messages generated while searching and routing Grid resource queries.

Although sequences that are closer to truly random can be generated using hardware random number generators, pseudorandom numbers are important in practice for their speed in number generation and their reproducibility, and they are thus central in applications such as simulations ( e. g., of physical systems with the Monte Carlo method ), in cryptography, and in procedural generation.

Although traditionally such cladograms were generated largely on the basis of morphological characters, DNA and RNA sequencing data and computational phylogenetics are now very commonly used in the generation of cladograms.

Although the label's music has never reflected just a single genre or underground music movement, it is arguably most notable for releasing the work of various riot grrrl bands during the mid -' 90s, some of which, especially the aforementioned Bikini Kill, generated a good deal of press attention.

Although historically the images generated were in the axial or transverse plane, perpendicular to the long axis of the body, modern scanners allow this volume of data to be reformatted in various planes or even as volumetric ( 3D ) representations of structures.

Although the dig was approved by the police, it generated protests from archaeologists.

Although the older technique of EEG had long been used to study the brain activity underlying selective attention by cognitive psychophysiologists, the ability of the newer techniques to actually measure precisely localized activity inside the brain generated renewed interest by a wider community of researchers.

Although many government programs are concentrated on recycling at home, a large portion of waste is generated by industry.

Although the film was not successful when first released theatrically, it generated more than $ 100 million from video rentals and became one of MGM's top 20 all-time bestsellers.

Although the movie was not a major success at the cinema, it generated US $ 11 million in home video sales, enough to justify a sequel.

Although action potentials are generated locally on patches of excitable membrane, the resulting currents can trigger action potentials on neighboring stretches of membrane, precipitating a domino-like propagation.

Although not always politically active, in 2007, Whitmore generated some publicity with his endorsement of Barack Obama for U. S. President.

Although the above is an argument for corporate taxation as opposed to the taxation of dividends, arguments for the taxation of income from capital would apply to both and on that count it can be argued that from a social policy standpoint it is unfair to tax income generated through active work at a higher rate than income generated through less active means ( although it might be said in defense that the ability to generate a material amount of dividend income can depend on years spent in active work pursuits ).

Although " wrongness " was the ultimate criterion of social action for the humanitarian movement and " reform " the method by which it was achieved, this would not have taken place without the energy generated by the ethic of active compassion.

Although these speeds are possible, the heat generated from the propulsion of the object is enough to erode the rails rapidly.

Although the remarks were left open to interpretation, they generated significant controversy in Hong Kong, with pro-democracy politicians calling it a challenge on the autonomy of the territory.
