Whereas most energy drinks are sold in cans or bottles, energy shots are usually sold in smaller 50ml bottles.

Whereas the titanium content is relatively constant, the ratio of magnesium to iron varies and is usually lower than 1.

Whereas his Gymnasium senior thesis argued that religion had as its primary social aim the promotion of solidarity, here Marx sees the social function of religion in terms of highlighting / preserving political and economic status quo and inequality.

Whereas phonetics is about the physical production and perception of the sounds of speech, phonology describes the way sounds function within a given language or across languages.
