Therefore, the optimal mutation rate for a species is a trade-off between costs of a high mutation rate, such as deleterious mutations, and the metabolic costs of maintaining systems to reduce the mutation rate, such as DNA repair enzymes .< ref name = Sniegowski > Viruses that use RNA as their genetic material have rapid mutation rates, which can be an advantage since these viruses will evolve constantly and rapidly, and thus evade the defensive responses of e. g. the human immune system.

Serial time encoded amplified microscopy ( STEAM ) is an imaging method that provides ultrafast shutter speed and frame rate, by using optical image amplification to circumvent the fundamental trade-off between sensitivity and speed, and a single-pixel photodetector to eliminate the need for a detector array and readout time limitations The method is at least 1000 times faster than the state-of-the-art CCD and CMOS cameras.

Something that increases an animal's survival will often also include its reproductive rate ; however, sometimes there is a trade-off between survival and current reproduction.

How long this " timeout " should be is a decision that requires a trade-off between availability and security that will have to be decided in advance, at the time of system design.

In the field of legal academia, Peter Swire has written about the trade-off between the notion that " security through obscurity is an illusion " and the military notion that " loose lips sink ships " as well as how competition affects the incentives to disclose.

All transit services, except personal rapid transit, involve a trade-off between speed and frequency of stops.

Designing transformers for lower loss requires a larger core, good-quality silicon steel, or even amorphous steel for the core and thicker wire, increasing initial cost so that there is a trade-off between initial cost and running cost ( also see energy efficient transformer ).

The resource hypothesis, for example, was meant to explain the trade-off between maintenance and processing: The more information must be maintained in working memory, the slower and more error prone concurrent processes become, and with a higher demand on concurrent processing memory suffers.

Errors arise from a trade-off between efficiency and precision, which is limited anyway, since ( using floating-point arithmetic ) only some rational numbers can be represented exactly.

There is a natural trade-off between the payload and the range of an aircraft.

; P-persistent: This is a sort of trade-off between 1 and non-persistent CSMA access modes.

There is a trade-off between the amplifying effect of the resonators and the length of sustain of a ringing bar.

The trade-off between compression power, speed, and fidelity ( including artifacts ) is usually considered the most important figure of technical merit.

The trade-off is the increase from 2 or 3 injections per day to 4 or more injections per day, which was considered " intensive " relative to the older approach.

It has been rumored that while Bernstein was off trying to fix the musical Candide, Sondheim wrote some of the music for West Side Story, and that Bernstein ’ s co-lyricist billing credit mysteriously disappeared from the credits of West Side Story during the tryout, presumably as a trade-off.

Because the car lacked a fuel pump, the fuel tank was placed high up in the engine compartment so that fuel could be fed to the carburetor by gravity ; a trade-off of this design is an increased fire risk in front-end accidents.

Part of the trade-off for the Irish Catholics was to be the granting of Catholic Emancipation, which had been fiercely resisted by the all-Anglican Irish Parliament.

It has been rumored that while Bernstein was off trying to fix the musical Candide, Sondheim wrote some of the music for West Side Story, and that Bernstein's co-lyricist billing mysteriously disappeared from the credits of West Side Story during the tryout, presumably as a trade-off.

In older versions of such gratings, environmental susceptibility was a trade-off, as the gel had to be contained at low temperature and humidity.

Without trade, its opportunity cost per shoe was 2 shirts ; by trading, its cost per shoe can reduce to as low as 1 shirt depending on how much trade occurs ( since the more-efficient country has a 1: 1 trade-off ).

This size-change mechanism was inspired by the zoom lens you might find on a camera, and any change in size can be described by a trade-off in the efficiency of processing.

The long-run Phillips Curve was thus vertical, so there was no trade-off between inflation and unemployment.

At a time when the Air Force's FX project ( subsequently the F-15 ) was foundering, Boyd's deployment orders to Vietnam were canceled and he was brought to the Pentagon to re-do the trade-off studies according to E-M. His work helped save the project from being a costly dud, even though its final product was larger and heavier than he desired.

During a trade-off study one of the leading researchers argued that a strategy called ' kinetic impactor deflection ' was more efficient than others.

Since the Anglo-Indian Bates, a popular actor of the day, was born in India and spoke Hindi before learning English, he was cast in the role as a trade-off between giving the series greater credibility and giving the character a degree of Indian authenticity.

Thomas Sowell argued in The Vision of the Anointed ( 1995 ) that Nader was ignorant and dismissive of the trade-off between safety and affordability.

( 2004 ) studied the malaria parasite using a rodent and chicken model respectively and found that there was trade-off between transmission success and virulence as defined by host mortality.

He said that it is bulky and heavy when attached to the Nintendo 64 controller, but that " he trade-off was actually worth it ".

The unavoidable trade-off with this arrangement was low efficiency and eventually these transmissions were discontinued in favor of the more efficient three speed units with a conventional three element torque converter.
