What's the difference between ferryboat and schedule?
Ferryboat
Definition:
(n.) A vessel for conveying passengers, merchandise, etc., across streams and other narrow waters.
Example Sentences:
(1) Two seemingly contradictory sets of observations have been made in studies of biological transport, which are essential for our understanding of the transport mechanism: carriers are integral membrane proteins, which span the membrane and are not free to rotate across the membrane; carriers appear to function like a ferryboat, with a substrate binding site moving back and forth from one side of the membrane to the other.
Schedule
Definition:
(n.) A written or printed scroll or sheet of paper; a document; especially, a formal list or inventory; a list or catalogue annexed to a larger document, as to a will, a lease, a statute, etc.
(v. t.) To form into, or place in, a schedule.
Example Sentences:
(1) Snooker, which became and remains a fixture in the BBC2 schedules, was chosen for showing because it is the sport in which different shades are most significant.
(2) A previous study, on grade IV astrocytomas, compared a combination of photons and fast neutron boost to photons only, both treatments being delivered following a concentrated irradiation schedule.
(3) The schedule proposed is easy to use and reproducible.
(4) In contrast, the late component of the thrombopoietic response was demonstrated best on the most toxic drug schedules.
(5) While the mouse P388 cells were sensitive to OP in vitro, no effect was seen when OP was administered in vivo, even when schedules designed to take advantage of OP's time-dependent toxicity were used.
(6) Comparison of the seroconversion results showed the presence of protective antibodies against all the 3 types of polio in 100% of the children in both the groups, but there was no statistical difference in the geometric mean antibody titre in the two immunization schedules.
(7) This schedule appears workable in the community setting and yields response rates similar to those reported for 5-FU with high-dose leucovorin, but without the gastroin testinal toxicity profile of the latter combination.
(8) No significant quantitative differences in AFB1-DNA adduct formation between the dietary groups were observed following the first exposure to [3H]AFB1; however, total aflatoxin-DNA adduct levels in the choline-deficient animals were significantly increased during the multiple dose schedule.
(9) After 40 programmed minutes of acquisition and 12 min of maintenance, without notice, both schedules changed to extinction for 28 min.
(10) These observations indicated a novel mechanism that in the absence of light-dark schedule, mothers taught the circadian rhythm to the pups as they raised them.
(11) Different possible combinations between neutrons and photons (boost, mixed schedule) are discussed.
(12) The interresponse-time reinforcement contingencies inherent in these schedules may actually mask the effects of overall reinforcement rate; thus differences in response rate as a function of reinforcement rate when interresponse-time reinforcement is eliminated may be underestimated.
(13) in rabbits according to schedules designed to yield approximately level activity in plasma for periods up to 5 hr.
(14) Squirrel monkeys trained to respond under a schedule in which each response postponed the delivery of electric shock developed a steady rate of responding.
(15) Twenty-four hours later, a stimulus generalization test was conducted in the absence of drug; during this session, tones that varied in frequency around 4.5 KHz were presented while the animals were responding under the VI schedule.
(16) It was found that DI rats responded less than LE rats on the progressive-ratio schedule and that DI rats suppressed drinking as much as LE rats at each concentration of quinine used on the drinking-suppression test.
(17) Two experiments reported the effects of prefeeding normal and septal rats prior to their daily sessions on a differential reinforcement of low rates (DRL-20) schedule.
(18) This dose and schedule of beta interferon did not result in significant anti-tumor effects in advanced NSCLC.
(19) Isoeffect distributions derived from time-dose fractionation values are examined, emphasizing alternate treatment schedules of the same plan.
(20) Our findings suggest that adoption of a sequential vaccination schedule (inactivated poliovirus vaccine followed by OPV) would be effective in decreasing the risk of VAPP while retaining the proven public health benefits of OPV.
