When a user acquires a lossily compressed file, ( for example, to reduce download time ) the retrieved file can be quite different from the original at the bit level while being indistinguishable to the human ear or eye for most practical purposes.

When introduced in the early 1990s, it had a number of unique features, such as “ sync slip ”, synchronized varispeed playback with audio scrubbing, synchronized multi-channel playback, and an object-oriented user interface with a dedicated hardware console.

When users visit a website ( using " user agent " software such as a web browser ), a text string is generally sent to identify the user agent to the web server.

When interpreting the results of a test, it is important to consider the morphine usage history of the individual, since a chronic user can develop tolerance to doses that would incapacitate an opiate-naive individual, and the chronic user often has high baseline values of these metabolites in his system.

When a user posts to one news server, the message is stored locally.

When a user types in a password on such a system, the password handling software runs through a cryptographic hash algorithm, and if the hash value generated from the user's entry matches the hash stored in the password database, the user is permitted access.

When both formats are available, the user must select with care.

When a ligand activates the G protein-coupled receptor, it induces a conformational change in the receptor that allows the receptor to function as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor ( GEF ) that exchanges GDP for GTP on the G < sub > α </ sub > subunit.

When an electric current is passed through the coil it generates a magnetic field that activates the armature, and the consequent movement of the movable contact ( s ) either makes or breaks ( depending upon construction ) a connection with a fixed contact.

When V < sub > 2 </ sub > is " on ", it activates V < sub > 4 </ sub >, driving low voltage ( logical " 0 ") to the output.

When such a processor reaches a temperature level deemed too high for safe operation, the thermal control circuit activates, automatically decreasing the clock and CPU core voltage until the temperature has returned to a safe level.

When the transmission from a marker beacon is received it activates an indicator on the pilot's instrument panel and the tone of the beacon is audible to the pilot.

When a temperature variation is detected the probe sends an electrical signal to the control box, which consists of an electrical circuit board that then activates or deactivates the burner system.

When a ligand ( the neurotransmitter ) binds to the receptor ( the transducer ) the latter activates a primary effector via the G-protein, which can go on to activate secondary messengers or have other effects.

When light activates the melanopsin signaling system, the melanopsin-containing ganglion cells discharge nerve impulses that are conducted through their axons to specific brain targets.
