Example Sentences:

(2) But the state premier Colin Barnett has suggested it will not be possible to place baited drumlines across the WA coast this summer.
(3) With the suggested targeting of ‘rogue sharks’ there will no doubt be a tender process with private companies bidding for the permits, as was the way of the initial baited drumline programme.
(4) The initial drumline deployment at the start of the year rightly came under extensive fire and opposition from across the world following questions surrounding the great white’s population status and what was deemed unnecessary targeting.
(5) During the initial review of the baited drumlines in WA there was a positive note that provided a comprehensive suite of shark hazard mitigation strategies to be implemented for the future.
Elongate
Definition:
(a.) To lengthen; to extend; to stretch; as, to elongate a line.
(a.) To remove further off.
(v. i.) To depart to, or be at, a distance; esp., to recede apparently from the sun, as a planet in its orbit.
(a.) Drawn out at length; elongated; as, an elongate leaf.
Example Sentences:
(1) A strong block to the elongation of nascent RNA transcripts by RNA polymerase II occurs in the 5' part of the mammalian c-fos proto-oncogene.
(2) The Ta loop was a smooth, elongated ellipse in configuration and showed clockwise rotation in all planes, as did the P loop.
(3) Aberrant forms (elongated and twisted) in the vacuole and double virions in the plasma membrane were observed as early as 65 h after infection.
(4) Elongation of existing RNA primers by the human polymerase-primase was semi-processive; following primer binding the DNA polymerase continuously incorporated 20 to 50 nucleotides, then it dissociated from the template DNA.
(5) The elongation of helix III with the addition of helix II at the N-terminus somewhat stabilizes the ordered structure.
(6) We show that it does apply under conditions of high ionic strength (0.3 M KCl), and under these conditions time courses may be analyzed to yield unbiased estimates of the initiation (Vi) and chain elongation (Vp) rates.
(7) These early hyperplastic lesions revealed stellate-shaped dilated bile canaliculi lined by blebs and abnormally thick elongated microvilli, a decreased number of microvilli on the sinusoidal surface, a marked increase in smooth endoplasmic reticulum, large nucleoli, and bundles of pericanalicular microfilaments.
(8) These two enzymes may act jointly in filling up the gaps along the DNA molecule and elongating the DNA chain.
(9) A radical rearrangement of the organism occurred gradually: initially oval in shape, the parasite became round, then elongated, flattened, and underwent cytokinesis.
(10) In muscle cells the mitochondria were in the process of dissolving and the sarcoplasmic reticulum formed elongate cisternae.
(11) The crus has been elongation 8 cm by Ilizarov method in 9 years old boy and 5 cm elongation of the tibia has been achieved with the use of Bastiani method in 8 years old girl.
(12) From the different shapes of the scattering curves of the native phosphofructokinase at pH 7.5 in the presence of 15 mM ATP and of the cross-linked tetramer or octamer, it can be inferred that the shapes of the protomers are different: in the presence of ATP the protomers are elongated, having an axial ratio of 1.8 to 2.0; the cross-linked state reveals a spherical protomer of radius 33.0 A, similar to that of the native enzyme at pH 7.5 in the presence of fructose 6-phosphate or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate.
(13) Whereas elongation of cDNA100 increased with time of incubation at the optimal detergent concentration, this process was retarded at higher detergent concentrations.
(14) This, along with evidence that kinesin is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum, has led to the suggestion that kinesin provides the motive force for the formation and maintenance of elongated tubulovesicular structures in cells.
(15) The results may point to an inhibition of replicon initiation, and a larger DNA chain elongation in UV-sensitive clones after UV irradiation.
(16) The cells elongate, keeping their original polarity, and acquire numerous filopodia which contain punctate junctions at sites of cell-to-cell contact.
(17) The remaining nonswarming mutants produced flagella but were defective in surface-induced elongation.
(18) The "hexagonal ribbon" model proposes that hexagonal profiles are true cross-sections of elongated hexagonal ribbons.
(19) The results raise important questions as to the actual mechanism of transcription elongation, and suggest that it is a much more complex process than previously assumed.
(20) It has been possible to separate this dissipation from that associated with elongation factor Tu function.
