Example Sentences:

(2) Solome Lemma, co-founder of the grassroots response initiative Africa Responds, said she was disappointed Geldof hadn’t worked with African artists: “There’s a multitude of artists from the three most affected countries – Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea – and the rest of Africa he could have brought on to do a different song.
(3) The energetic consequences of acute and chronic adjustments of two primary-active transport processes, Na-K transport across plasma(sarco) lemma and Ca transport across the endo(sarco)plasmic-reticular membrane, are illustrated.
(4) Most of the tumour cells were elongate, and contained abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum, well developed Golgi zones, and numerous small vesicles and filaments, the latter sometimes being related to masses of electron-dense material near the plasma-lemma.
(5) The first Band Aid did raise money, but it left Ethiopia and the rest of Africa with a very negative legacy, that survives to this day.” Lemma was born in Ethiopia and moved to the US when she was 12 in the early 1990s.
(6) This result suggests that the effects of BWSV on the nerve terminal may not be confined to increasing the permeability of the plasma-lemma.
(7) Unlike albumin-gold complexes that bind restrictively to plasmalemmal vesicles, gA-Au labels the plasma-lemma proper, plasmalemmal vesicles open on the lumen, and most coated pits.
(8) This paper presents a spreading-activation theory of conceptually driven lemma retrieval--the first stage of lexical access in speaking, where lexical items specified with respect to meaning and syntactic properties are activated and selected.
(9) While healthy elderly Ss (in the 70s group) utilized lemma repairs more often than the reformulation strategy, all other healthy Ss used both strategies about equally often.
(10) Solome Lemma is co-founder and executive director of Africans in the Diaspora (Aid) .
(11) A lemma with sufficient conditions for continuity and differentiation of the median regression function is proved.
(12) Their basal plasma lemma showed presence of caveolae and the luminal surface was studded with stereocilis.
(13) Hooked macrohairs on the lemma of the spikelet show that morphological modifications in grasses for dispersal by attachment to the surface of animals were present in the Late Eocene.
(14) The mental lexicon is conceived of as a network consisting of concept, lemma, and word-form nodes and labelled links, with each lexical concept represented as an independent node.
(15) Solome Lemma, co-founder of Africans in the Diaspora and the Africa Responds initiative on Ebola, a fundraising effort to support local organisations working on the issue , said it was commendable that Geldof was helping with the Ebola response, but questioned the initiative’s “patronising” style.
(16) These results demonstrate that polymers prevent exocytosis by preventing dispersal of the granule contents once fusion of the secretory granule with the plasma-lemma has occurred.
(17) The emerging theoretical picture partitions the accessing process into two subprocesses, the selection of an appropriate lexical item (a "lemma") from the mental lexicon, and the phonological encoding of that item, that is, the computation of a phonetic program for the item in the context of utterance.
(18) Preliminary EM investigations revealed thick and thin filaments, associated with the ectoplasmic tube near the plasma-lemma, which appeared to be the basis for the contractility of the ectoplasmic tube.
(19) Two major bleb types have been discerned on ultrastructural appearance using as the criteria the preservation of integrity of the plasma-lemma and subplasmalemmal leptomeres.
(20) Processing models that use the activation metaphor may have difficulties accounting for certain phenomena where a certain lemma triggers not one, but two or more word forms that have to be produced with other word forms in between.
