Because there is little material transport across the core-mantle boundary, heat transfer must occur by conduction, with adiabatic gradients above and below this boundary.

Because one of the main mechanisms for electrons to be excited to the conduction band is due to thermal energy, the conductivity of semiconductors is strongly dependent on the temperature of the material.

Because the accessory pathway initiates conduction in the ventricles outside of the bundle of His, the QRS complex in antidromic AVRT is often wider than usual, with a delta wave.

Because their small size is more efficient for heat conduction, cupcakes bake much faster than a normal layered cake.

Because the retrograde conduction is via the fast pathway, stimulation of the atria ( which produces the inverted P wave ) will occur at the same time as stimulation of the ventricles ( which causes the QRS complex ).

Because the retrograde conduction is via the slow pathway, stimulation of the atria will be delayed by the slow conduction tissue and will typically produce an inverted P wave that falls after the QRS complex on the surface ECG.

Because of this, the term B * algebra is rarely used in current terminology, and has been replaced by the ( overloading of ) the term ' C * algebra '.

Because the electron carries negative charge, the electron motion in a metal conductor is in the direction opposite to that of conventional ( or electric ) current.

Because of its varied and current themes of racism, love, jealousy, and betrayal, Othello is still often performed in professional and community theatres alike and has been the basis for numerous operatic, film, and literary adaptations.

Because they are so distant, they are apparently stationary to our current technology, yet their positions can be measured with the utmost accuracy by Very Long Baseline Interferometry ( VLBI ); positions of most are known to 0. 001 arcsecond or better, orders of magnitude more precise than the best optical measurements.

Because of extreme ease in collection at 8 – 10 years of age before calcification and minimal to no morbidity, these will probably constitute a major source of cells for personal banking, research and current or future therapies.

Because the base is narrow, most of these electrons will diffuse into the reverse-biased ( electrons and holes are formed at, and move away from the junction ) base-collector junction and be swept into the collector ; perhaps one-hundredth of the electrons will recombine in the base, which is the dominant mechanism in the base current.

Because of the lack of a residual gap in the magnetic path, toroidal transformers also tend to exhibit higher inrush current, compared to laminated E-I types.

Because the current photolithographic technology is unable to produce electrode gaps small enough to contact both ends of the molecules tested ( in the order of nanometers ) alternative strategies are put into use.

Because the majority of electrons are trapped in the Hall current, they have a long residence time inside the thruster and are able to ionize almost all of the xenon propellant, allowing for mass utilizations of 90 – 99 %.

Because loops of current-carrying conductors tend to be forced outwards towards a circular shape by their own magnetic field, the sail could be deployed simply by unspooling the conductor and applying a current through it.

Because of this current limitation, multiple parallel cables ( called bundle conductors ) are used when higher capacity is needed.

Because there is concern that it will become increasingly difficult to maintain high confidence in the current warheads for the long term, the Department of Energy / National Nuclear Security Administration initiated the Reliable Replacement Warhead ( RRW ) Program.

Because current in these systems is interrupted by a switching action, the current contains frequency components that are multiples of the power system frequency.

Because of its stable current, the method can be used on a wider range of material thicknesses than can the GTAW process and it is much faster.

Because of the possible role of serotonin in sleep patterns, a new generation of 5-HT < sub > 2 </ sub > antagonists are in current development as hypnotics.

Because of conservation of potential vorticity caused by the poleward-moving winds on the subtropical ridge's western periphery and the increased relative vorticity of poleward moving water, transport is balanced by a narrow, accelerating poleward current, which flows along the western boundary of the ocean basin, outweighing the effects of friction with the cold western boundary current which originates from high latitudes.

Because of the significant advantages of alternating current over direct current in transforming and transmission, electric power distribution is nearly all alternating current today.

Because God is what He is, the laws of the universe, material and spiritual, are what they are.

Because of these involvements in the matter at stake, Boniface lacked the impartiality that is supposed to be an essential qualification for the position of arbiter, and in retrospect that would seem to be sufficient reason why the English embassies to the Curia proved so fruitless.

Because of the means of publication -- science-fiction magazines and cheap paperbacks -- and because dystopian science fiction is still appearing in quantity the full range and extent of this phenomenon can hardly be known, though one fact is evident: the science-fiction imagination has been immensely fertile in its extrapolations.

Because administration of the forest highway system is a responsibility of the Secretary of Commerce with maintenance provided by the States and counties, this Development Program for the National Forests does not include estimates of the funds needed to maintain the forest highway system nor to construct the additions to it that are needed.

Because the bobbin-to-cone winding process is a relatively high-cost operation for the mill, the almost complete automation provided by the Uniconer can mean important economies in textile production, at the same time upgrading quality.

Because of its importance, and because the lack of price competition is well recognized, the industry is under considerable public pressure not to raise its price any more than could be justified by cost increases.

Because community not severalty of property is the law of nature no man can assert an absolutely unalterable right to what is his.

Because of undesirable flavors, odors, colors, and generally low palatability associated with radiation treatment of this magnitude, the inactivation of enzymes is best accomplished prior to irradiation by the conventional heat-processing methods of blanching.

Because agricultural activities are seasonal and the areas of production and harvest of many foods are widely scattered geographically, and because of the high cost of transporting bulk food items any substantial distance to a central processing location, the use of large central processing stations, where low-cost radiation facilities approaching the megawatt range might be utilized, is inherently impracticable.

Because the rake angle Af at the tip of the knife is very much smaller ( or even negative ) when compared to the value of **yc for the major portion of the knife, a very rapid increase in cutting force with thickness will result.

Because the food is selected with thought for its nutritional value, care for its origin, and prepared in a manner that retains the most nutrients, the food does taste good.

-- Held out of Texas Tech's sweat-suits drill Monday at Lubbock was tackle Richard Stafford, who is undergoing treatment for a leg injury suffered in the Raiders' 38-7 loss to Texas A & M Because of its important game with Arkansas coming up Saturday, Baylor worked out in the rain Monday -- mud or no mud.

Because of this Dr. Bonnor holds that the universe is becoming more thinly populated by stars and whatever else is there.

Because all living beings possess a soul, great care and awareness is essential in one's actions.

Because anthropology developed from so many different enterprises ( see History of Anthropology ), including but not limited to fossil-hunting, exploring, documentary film-making, paleontology, primatology, antiquity dealings and curatorship, philology, etymology, genetics, regional analysis, ethnology, history, philosophy, and religious studies, it is difficult to characterize the entire field in a brief article, although attempts to write histories of the entire field have been made.

Because most embryonic development is outside the parental body, it is subject to many adaptations due to specific ecological circumstances.

Because experimentation is iterative, the

Because the range of possible values for K < sub > a </ sub > spans many orders of magnitude, a more manageable constant, pK < sub > a </ sub > is more frequently used, where pK < sub > a </ sub >
