Because of this, selection pressure for early humans would favor decreasing body hair because those with thick coats would have more lethal-disease-carrying ectoparasites and would thereby have lower fitness.

Because humans do not always copy memes perfectly, and because they may refine, combine or otherwise modify them with other memes to create new memes, they can change over time.

Because of the extent of human influence, the boundaries between what humans regard as nature and " made environments " is not clear cut except at the extremes.

Because of difficulties in human lookahead — peculiar to Reversi because of the apparent strategic meaninglessness of internal disks ( making blindfold games — if not virtually impossible without enormous dedication — more difficult than is the case in, say, chess ) and the attractiveness of the game to programmers — the best Othello computer programs have easily defeated the best humans since 1980, when the program The Moor beat the reigning world champion.

Because the speaker is constantly moving either toward or away from the listener, however, the mechanism's rotation is constantly affecting the listener-perceived sound's wavelength by either " stretching " the wave ( increasing wavelength ) or " squeezing " it ( decreasing wavelength ) -- and because frequency, i. e., pitch, is inversely proportional to wavelength, such that increasing wavelength decreases frequency and vice versa, any listener for whom the speaker's motion changes the sound's perceived amplitude ( i. e., any listener whose distance from the speaker is changing ) must also perceive a change in frequency.

Because the wavelengths at which the images were taken do not correspond to the wavelengths of red, green and blue light, the colours in the final image only give an approximate representation of the actual colours of the galaxies in the image ; the choice of filters for the HDF ( and the majority of Hubble images ) was primarily designed to maximize the scientific utility of the observations rather than to create colours corresponding to what the human eye would actually perceive.

* Because of the phonetic differences between English and French rhotics, speakers may perceive as-like and have trouble distinguishing between and.

Because Hikaru is apparently the only person who can perceive him, Sai inhabits a part of Hikaru's mind as a separate personality, coexisting, although not always comfortably, with the child.

Because of its concealment, it is extremely difficult to perceive.

Because each portion of the painted object lies on the straight line from the viewer's eye to the equivalent portion of the real object it represents, the viewer cannot perceive ( sans depth perception ) any difference between the painted scene on the windowpane and the view of the real scene.

Because the skull conducts lower frequencies better than air, people perceive their own voices to be lower and fuller than others do.

Because all organisms perceive and react to sensory data as signs, Uexküll argued that they were to be considered as living subjects.

Because the size of the object did not affect his patient ’ s ability to perceive an item, Bálint argued that his patient did not have a narrowing of the sensory field.

Because its deepest tones vibrate so slowly ( as with the contrabassoon or pedal notes on a pipe organ ) it can be difficult for listeners to perceive individual pitches at the bottom of its range ; instead of hearing a clearly delineated melody, listeners may instead hear a series of rattling tones with little pitch definition.

Because most humans continue to think in terms of the kind of events we perceive in the human scale of daily life, it became necessary to provide a new philosophical interpretation of classical physics.

Because bipolar disorder can have a high rate of both under-diagnosis and misdiagnosis, it is often difficult for individuals with the condition to receive timely and competent treatment.

Because of the relatively high bit rate of uncompressed video, video compression is extensively used.

Because it has a high rate of type Ia supernovae, NGC 1316 has been used to determine the size of the universe.

Because of the slow rate of Hb A combination with glucose, the Hb A < sub > 1c </ sub > percentage is representative of glucose level in the blood averaged over a longer time ( the half-life of red blood cells, which is typically 50 – 55 days ).

Because this practice increases the supply of currency without any matching increase in demand for it, the price of the currency, that is the exchange rate, naturally falls relative to other currencies.

Because a nation's exchange rate has a big impact on its ' balance of trade ' and its ' balance of payments ' many economists favour freely floating exchange rates over the older, fixed ( or pegged ) rates of foreign currency exchange.

Because rate of automobile ownership is low, and formal government run public transit is sparse, informal buses and taxis abound in Malian urban centers.

Because of nickel's slow rate of oxidation at room temperature, it is considered corrosion-resistant.

#: Because the Allied Occupation Zones in Germany were under great strain, the Czechoslovak government, the Polish provisional government and the control council in Hungary were asked to submit an estimate of the time and rate at which further transfers could be carried out having regard to the present situation in Germany and suspend further expulsions until these estimates were integrated into plans for an equitable distribution of these " removed " Germans among the several zones of occupation.

Because this interaction takes place on atomic electrons it occurs with the same rate in both the heavy and light water.

Because ovulation is suppressed until the calf is weaned, females give birth at most every two years, leaving the walrus with the lowest reproductive rate of any pinniped.

Because of a " wobble " in the Earth's axis of rotation over a period of about 26, 000 years ( often called a " great year "), the rate at which the vernal equinox precesses in the heavens is approximately 0 deg, 0 min, 50. 23 seconds a year, drifting by one degree every 72 years.

Because of its fundamental role in carrying a single phone call, the DS0 rate forms the basis for the digital multiplex transmission hierarchy in telecommunications systems used in North America.

Because it requires less signal processing and less chances for error than parallel transmission, the transfer rate of each individual path may be faster.

Because of the memoryless property of this distribution, it is well-suited to model the constant hazard rate portion of the bathtub curve used in reliability theory.

Because of this and the high evaporation rate of the Dead Sea, the sea is shrinking.

Because this is the period of rotation in a precessing reference frame, it is not directly related to the mean rotation rate of the Earth in an inertial frame, which is given by ω = 2π / T where T is the slightly longer stellar day given by Aoki et al.

Because they oscillate at the same rate, when ƒ ( t ) is positive, so is the real part of e < sup >− 2πi ( 3t )</ sup >.

Because PWS infants have a higher rate of difficulties at birth ( including breech delivery and respiratory delay ) birth-related injuries and oxygen deprivation may complicate the genetic handicaps, resulting in atypical PWS.

Because the sandstones are permeable, water gradually makes its way through the pores between the sand grains, flowing at a rate of one to five metres per year.

Because the rate of filtration at the kidney is proportional to the glomerular filtration rate, which is in turn related to the blood flow through the kidney, changes in body fluid status can affect kidney function.

Because the charging voltage is nearly constant, constant-current charging delivers energy at a near-constant rate.

The primary reason was that ECS memory was wired with only two wires per core ( contrast with 5 for central memory ), Because it performed very wide transfers, its sequential transfer rate was the same as that of the small core memory.

Because of this, autonomy has been and may continue to be the bottleneck for future UAV developments, and the overall value and rate of expansion of the future UAV market could be largely driven by advances to be made in the field of autonomy.
