Since the collectors of Q4 and Q6 appear as high differential resistances to the signal current ( Q4 and Q6 behave as current sources ), the open circuit voltage gain of this stage is very high.

Since the player expects to always gain additional bets in later rounds when the draw is made, and never lose any additional bets when the draw is missed, the extra bets that the player expects to gain, excluding his own, can fairly be added to the current size of the pot.

Since the current path A8-A3 has a far lower impedance than the microphone ( A2 ), virtually all of the incoming signal passes through it and bypasses the microphone.

Since internally the base and emitter connections behave like a semiconductor diode, a voltage drop develops between base and emitter while the base current exists.

Since batteries produce direct current ( DC ) rather than alternating current ( AC ), induction coils relied upon vibrating electrical contacts that regularly interrupted the current in the primary to create the flux changes necessary for induction.

Since the ideal core has been assumed to have near-zero reluctance, the magnetizing current is negligible, although still required, to create the magnetic field.

Since the late 1990s, The New Yorker has used the Internet to publish current and archived material.

Since the plasma is an electrical conductor, it is possible to heat the plasma by inducing a current through it ; in fact, the induced current that heats the plasma usually provides most of the poloidal field.

Since E. histolytica does not form cysts in vitro in the absence of bacteria, it is not possible to study the differentiation process in detail in that species.

Since it takes many generations for a microbe and a new host species to co-evolve, an emerging pathogen may hit its earliest victims especially hard.

Since the end of the whaling and sealing era, most of the islands ' species have been able to increase their population again.

Since goldfish and koi were developed from different species of carp, even though they can interbreed, their offspring are sterile.

Since there are no inflows that link the lake to other large waterways and the main outflow, the Blue Nile, is obstructed by the Blue Nile Falls, the lake supports a highly distinctive fish fauna, which generally is related to species from the Nile Basin.

Since North America and Asia used to be connected by the Bering land bridge, a number of animal and plant species ( more animals than plants ) were able to colonize both continents and are distributed throughout the taiga biome ( see Circumboreal Region ).

Since the late 1990s, devil facial tumour disease has drastically reduced the devil population and now threatens the survival of the species, which in 2008 was declared to be endangered.

Since Velociraptor was the first to be named, these species were renamed Velociraptor antirrhopus and V. langstoni.

Since a large portion of maize crops are grown for purposes other than human consumption, rice is the most important grain with regard to human nutrition and caloric intake, providing more than one fifth of the calories consumed worldwide by the human species.

Since 1934 the sale of Federal Duck Stamps, a required purchase for migratory waterfowl hunters over sixteen-years-old, has raised over $ 700 million to help purchase more than of habitat for the National Wildlife Refuge System lands that support waterfowl and many other wildlife species, and are often open to hunting.

Since taxonomists can legitimately disagree as to whether two genera or two species are distinct or not, more than one name can be in use.

Since the traits of hybrid offspring often vary depending on which species was mother and which was father, it is traditional to use the father's species as the first half of the portmanteau.

Since that time, sharks have diversified into over 400 species.

Since 1959 all species producing the botulinum neurotoxins ( types A-G ) have been designated C. botulinum.

Since then, 684 species have been identified there.

Since the majority of these species have global distribution, some authors do not consider them to be Australian species.

Since 2002, a tremendous amount of activity by Filipino scientists has resulted in the discovery and naming several new species of Rafflesia.

Since different species of trees have different ratios of components, various types of wood do impart a different flavor to food.

Since the eggs are very hard-shelled, they can pass through the bird's digestive system unharmed, promoting the spread of the species over wide areas.

Since then, the various genera of Linnaeus and others have become subgenera and sections, as it is clearer that all the species are more closely related.

Since discovery by humans, numerous species have been introduced to the island, some deliberately, like the casurina, the feral pig, the Cardinal ( Cardinalis cardinalis ), anoles, ladybird beetles, and the Kiskadee, some incidentally, like the Norwegian rat ( Rattus norvegicus ) and the Black Rat ( Rattus rattus ), and the others accidentally, like the scale mites, and the brown widow spider ( Latrodectus geometricus ).

Since then, the silk production capacity of the species has increased nearly tenfold.

Since the many species form hybrids easily, there are numerous cultivars with more than one species in their ancestry.
