For example, Baldrick is reduced to making coffee from mud and cooking rats, while General Melchett hatches a plan for the troops to walk very slowly toward the German lines, because " it'll be the last thing Fritz will expect.

For example, during the 872-day Siege of Leningrad, reports of cannibalism began to appear in the winter of 1941 – 1942, after all birds, rats and pets were eaten by survivors.

For instance, Patton required all personnel to wear steel helmets ( even physicians in the operating wards ) and required his troops to wear the unpopular lace-up canvas leggings and neckties since the leggings prevented injury from scorpions, spiders, and rats which would climb up under soldiers ' trousers.

For example, recent sleep deprivation experiments conducted on rats and other animals have resulted in the deterioration of physiological functioning and actual tissue damage of the animals.

For instance, GnRH molecule functions as a neurotransmitter in rats to elicit lordosis behavior.

For the role of Rufus, Cartwright researched mole rats extensively, and became " a font of useless trivia ".

For example, domesticated brown rats are not considered a plague threat, though exposure to wild rat populations could introduce pathogens like Salmonella into the home.

For example, rats that are exposed to loud music for a long period will ultimately develop unwanted behaviors that have been compared with human psychosis, like biting their owners.

For example, laboratory rats have been bred for high or low performance on a motorized treadmill with electrical stimulation as motivation.

For a number of years pet rats had been appearing at mouse shows in Britain.

* El Hadji Diouf – As manager of QPR, Warnock criticised Diouf for his behaviour after a challenge between QPR's Jamie Mackie and Blackburn Rovers ' Gael Givet left Mackie with a double fracture in his leg: " For many years I have thought was the gutter type – I was going to call him a sewer rat but that might be insulting to sewer rats.

For example, an independent variable in a study on latent learning in rats is the number of practice trials received.

For example, in rats, CCK administration significantly reduces hunger in young males, but is slightly less effective in older subjects, and even slightly less effective in females.

While discussing the appropriate attire for American Supreme Court justices, Thomas Jefferson was once famously quoted as saying, in reference to traditional court dress: " For heaven's sake, discard the monstrous wig which makes the English judges look like rats peeping through bunches of oakum.

For example, an experiment may consist of breeding rats with a certain genetic defect.

For example, sexual dimorphism in the number of perineal motoneurons is less obvious in dogs and humans than it is in rats.

For example rats treated with the NMDA receptor blocker APV perform poorly in the Morris water maze, suggesting that NMDA receptors play a role in learning.

For example, researchers have found that a common flame retardant, PBDE-47, affects the reproductive system and thyroid gland of female rats in doses of the order of those to which humans are exposed.

For example, for rats and apes, the presence of mammary glands is a symplesiomorphy, but it is a synapomorphy for mammals in relation to tetrapods more broadly.

For instance, in order to explain the behavior of rats, Edward Tolman suggested that the rats were constructing a " cognitive map " that helped them locate reinforcers, and he used intentional terms ( e. g., expectancies, purposes, meanings ) to describe their behavior.

For example on Laysan Island the introduced rabbits degraded the scrub cover, leaving adults, chicks and eggs vulnerable to overheating, and introduced black rats took eggs and chicks.

For example, Dipodomys merriami kangaroo rats become crepuscular instead of nocturnal on full moon nights, when predators could see them more easily.

For example, if a researcher feeds an experimental artificial sweetener to sixty laboratory rats and observes that ten of them subsequently become sick, the underlying cause could be the sweetener itself or something unrelated.

For example, the copyright to a Mickey Mouse cartoon restricts others from making copies of the cartoon or creating derivative works based on Disney's particular anthropomorphic mouse, but does not prohibit the creation of other works about anthropomorphic mice in general, so long as they are different enough to not be judged copies of Disney's.

For example, recent studies have suggested genetic variants in deer mice that help explain how deer mice that live in the mountains are able to survive in the thin air that accompanies high altitudes.

For example, introns are extremely common within the nuclear genome of higher vertebrates ( e. g. humans and mice ), where protein-coding genes almost always contain multiple introns, while introns are rare within the nuclear genes of some eukaryotic microorganisms, for example baker's / brewer's yeast ( Saccharomyces cerevisiae ).

For example, current research in the excretory systems of mice shows the ability of gold composites to selectively target certain organs based on their size and charge.

For example, studies in mice bearing human skin grafts found a reduction in the size of lesions from psoriasis after treatment with a proteasome inhibitor.

For example, it is used in the process of producing knockout mice, as well as in tumor treatment, gene therapy, and cell-based therapy.

For example, in the genomes of humans and mice, which diverged from a common ancestor 65 – 75 million years ago, protein-coding DNA sequences account for only about 20 % of conserved DNA, with the remaining 80 % of conserved DNA represented in noncoding regions.

For instance, in Agouti mice, the hair appears brown because of alternation between black eumelanin production and a yellow variety of pheomelanin.

For example, in " Well Worn Daffy " ( 1965 ), Daffy is determined to keep the mice away from a desperately needed well seemingly for no other motive than pure maliciousness.

For example, Jody Azzouni suggests that " There is " does not make any kind of genuine existence-claim when it is used in a sentence such as " There are mice that talk ".

For instance, all keyboards were set to $ 2, and all mice to $ 3.

For example, the microvilli in the small and large intestines in mice are slightly different in length and amount of surface coat covering.

For example, deletion of a gene by gene targeting ( gene knockout ) can be done in some organisms, such as yeast, mice and moss.

For example, a gene coding for a protein analogous to TLR10 in humans is present in mice, but appears to have been damaged at some point in the past by a retrovirus.

For most of the TLRs, ligand recognition specificity has now been established by gene targeting ( also known as " gene knockout "): a technique by which individual genes may be selectively deleted in mice.

For example, one study suggests the possibility of a previously unsuspected early link between Northern Europe and Madeira on the basis of the origin of Madeiran mice.

For instance, he enjoys eating live mice with his vintage six hundred dollar wine.

" For instance, folklorist Eric Maple noted that in the English region of East Anglia during the latter nineteenth century, it was commonly thought that familiar spirits, which were often referred to as " imps " in that region, took the form of white mice.

For example, rhombomeres are detectable by light microscopy in Swiss / Webster strain of mice for up to embryonic day ( E ) 10. 5, but they disappear at E11. 5.

For example, studies in female mice have shown that estrogen receptor-alpha declines in the aging pre-optic hypothalamus.

For the fact that they are so abundant in nature, these mice constitute a large component of the nearctic ecosystems.

For instance, humans teach all possible activities ( different ones in different cultures ), whereas meerkats and cats, two of very few animals that teach at all, teach one activity: how to eat dangerous food such as scorpions in the one case, and how to stalk mice in the other.

For example, a new compound would be injected intravenously into a group of 16-20 rodents ( typically mice or rats ).
