A more or less typical monocotyledon, the species can be recognized by its shortly branched inflorescence covered with branched hairs ( giving rise to the common name of Lamb's-tail ).

An alternative classification, though one with much less currency among Altaicists, was proposed by John C. Street ( 1962 ), according to which Turkic-Mongolic-Tungusic forms one grouping and Korean-Japanese-Ainu another, the two being linked in a common family that Street designated as " North Asiatic ".

The debate is interesting enough, however, that it is considered of note when a theorem in ZFC ( ZF plus AC ) is logically equivalent ( with just the ZF axioms ) to the axiom of choice, and mathematicians look for results that require the axiom of choice to be false, though this type of deduction is less common than the type which requires the axiom of choice to be true.

For example, paintings glorified aristocracy in the early 17th century when leadership was needed to nationalize small political groupings, but later as leadership became oppressive, satirization increased and subjects were less concerned with leaders and more with more common plights of mankind.

Use of the term to describe writers, for example, is certainly valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like criticism.

They generally have other terms specific to U. S. nationals, such as German US-Amerikaner, French étatsunien, Japanese 米国人 beikokujin, Arabic أمريكاني amriikaanii ( as opposed to the more-common أمريكي amriikii ), and Italian statunitense, but these may be less common than the term American.

The term is less common in modern texts, and was originally derived from a dichotomy with major tranquilizers, also known as neuroleptics or antipsychotics.

A characteristic application is to the protection of ships ' bottoms, but more modern methods of cathodic protection have rendered its use less common.

3D beading is less common than 2D beading, largely because free 3D beading patterns are not well distributed on the internet.

In general, the difference between a statistics program and a biostatistics program is twofold: ( i ) statistics departments will often host theoretical / methodological research which are less common in biostatistics programs and ( ii ) statistics departments have lines of research that may include biomedical applications but also other areas such as industry ( quality control ), business and economics and biological areas other than medicine.

The most common options are either a rear hub or multiple chain rings combined with multiple sprockets ( other combinations of options are possible but less common ).

Because silver was worth less than its legal equivalent in gold, taxpayers paid their government bills in silver, while international creditors demanded payment in gold, resulting in a depletion of the nation's gold supply.

Where in a p-n diode the reverse recovery time can be in the order of hundreds of nanoseconds and less than 100 ns for fast diodes, Schottky diodes do not have a recovery time, as there is nothing to recover from ( i. e. no charge carrier depletion region at the junction ).

Book value is often used interchangeably with " net book value " or " carrying value ," which is the original acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation, depletion or amortization.

With emissions of greenhouse gases suspected of contributing to climate change, the use of these elements as industrial metals is called into question, despite the depletion of rarer and less reactive chalcophile metals leaving few substitutes.

Some cichlids are able to feed while mouthbrooding the eggs, but invariably they feed less often than they would otherwise do, and after mouthbrooding one batch of eggs, all mouthbrooding fish will be underweight and requiring a period of time to feed and make good the depletion of their energy reserves.

Zebra sharks are highly susceptible to localized depletion due to their shallow habitat and low levels of dispersal between populations, and market surveys suggest that they are much less common now than in the past.

In order for depletion not to occur, there must be a balance between repletion and depletion which can happen at low stimulation frequencies of less than 30 Hz.

Although the depletion of such reserves is evident, unconventional oil production is a less efficient process and has greater environmental impacts than that of conventional oil production.

Since there is greater air exchange between the Arctic and the mid-latitudes, ozone depletion at the north pole is much less severe than at the south.

Depleted uranium also contains less U-235, but in spite of its half-life that is much shorter than the one of U-238, the concentration of U-235 in natural uranium is low enough ( about 0. 7 %) so that the U-235 depletion does not result in a significant reduction in radioactivity.

Conversely, when the drug wears off the brain will, in severe enough cases, release less than the usual level of neurotransmitters, in order to compensate for depletion.

During potassium depletion or hypokalemia, the TTKG should fall to less than 3, indicating appropriately reduced urinary excretion of potassium.

Of the capabilities present in the BBC Micro but absent from the Electron, the teletext-style mode 7 was particularly conspicuous because of the very low memory usage in that mode ( just less than 1 kB ) and the high number of BBC programs that used it.

EDGE can carry a bandwidth up to 384 kbit / s ( with end-to-end latency of less than 150 ms ) for 4 timeslots ( theoretical maximum is 473. 6 kbit / s for 8 timeslots ) in packet mode.

The significant recoil of the M14 when fired in full-automatic mode was seen as a problem as it reduced accuracy, and in the 1960s it was replaced by Eugene Stoner's AR-15, which also marked a switch from the powerful. 30 caliber cartridges used by the U. S. military up until early in the Vietnam War to the much less powerful but far lighter and light recoiling. 223 caliber ( 5. 56mm ) intermediate cartridge.

This should mean that the programmer has to do less mode switching versus using discrete development programs.

However, this process cannot happen to a great extent in a nuclear reactor, as too small a fraction of the fission neutrons produced by any type of fission have enough energy to efficiently fission U-238 ( fission neutrons have a median energy of 2 MeV, but a mode of only 0. 75 MeV, meaning half of them have less than this insufficient energy ).

Occasions of experience of the fourth grade involve experience in the mode of presentational immediacy, which means more or less what are often called the qualia of subjective experience.

Presently the Western socializing mode of childrearing is considered much less abusive in the field, though this mode is not yet entirely free of abuse.

Certain revolvers, called double action only ( DAO ) or, more correctly but less commonly self cocking, lack the latch that enables the hammer to be locked to the rear, and thus can only be fired in the double action mode.

In the most common or standard detection mode, secondary electron imaging or SEI, the SEM can produce very high-resolution images of a sample surface, revealing details less than 1 nm in size.

Low speed modes would ostensibly dominate the distribution, since low speed modes would require ever less energy, and prima facie a zero-speed mode would require zero energy and its energy partition would contain an infinite number of atoms.

While fire and forget missiles have definitive advantages in terms of guidance and operator safety, and include abilities such as top attack mode, older missiles continue in use, both in the front line armies of less developed countries, and in reserve service the world over, due to their lower cost or existing stockpiles of less advanced weapons.

The mode is more meaningful and potentially useful if there are many numbers in the list, and the frequency of the numbers progresses smoothly ( e. g., if out of a group of 1000 people, 30 people weigh 61 kg, 32 weigh 62 kg, 29 weigh 63 kg, and all the other possible weights occur less frequently, then 62 kg is the mode ).

In modes where each pixel uses 24 bits of color data per pixel or less and dual-link mode is in use, the transmitter stripes pixel data across both links ; each sequential video pixel is transmitted on alternate links.

Other non-diatonic notes, such as the note B ♭, are dissonant within the C ionian mode, so that they are less used in non-modal jazz songs when playing the chord C. In a modal song, these other notes may be freely used as long as the overall sound of C ionian is entrenched within the listener's mind.

Tiltrotors are inherently less noisy in forward flight ( airplane mode ) than helicopters.

; Linear framebuffer access: Enables direct framebuffer access in protected mode as one large area of memory instead of less efficient smaller chunks.

Electron capture is the primary decay mode for isotopes with a relative superabundance of protons in the nucleus, but with insufficient energy difference between the isotope and its prospective daughter ( with one less positive charge ) for the nuclide to decay by emitting a positron.

If the energy difference between the parent atom and the daughter atom is less than 1. 022 MeV, positron emission is forbidden because not enough decay energy is available to allow it, and thus electron capture is the sole decay mode.

Completed in the late 1840s, the New York / New Haven Railroad ( New Haven / Northampton ) was built alongside the canal ( more or less ) as a revolutionary mode for travel to and through Southwick.

Using this enhanced mode accuracy was typically less than 20 meters.
