  • (20) When we reached our summit, or whatever spot was deemed by my father to be of adequately punishing distance from the car to deserve lunch, Dad would invariably find he had forgotten his Swiss army knife (looking back, I begin to doubt he ever had one) and instead would cut cheese into slices with the edge of his credit card.

Unvariable


Definition:

  • (a.) Invariable.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Essential features are the use of reagent grade chemicals only, a pretreatment solution to ensure optimal impregnation of different organs from different animals and species, and an unvarying procedure.
  • (2) In the preimplantation period, ER patterns remained unvarying on days 2-6 of gestation in both cytoplasmic and nuclear compartments; their levels in nuclear fraction were significantly higher from day 3 onwards while, total cytoplasmic ER concentrations were higher from day 4 of gestation compared with the values obtained for secretory phase tissues from normal ovulatory cycles.
  • (3) The sum of life events, several SCL-90R scores and the scores of distress in relationships were already elevated in hypomanics 7 years before diagnosis of hypomania, indicating an increased activity level, a generalized increase in neuroticism, and a relatively unvarying behaviour pattern in social relationships.

  • (5) This relation remained substantially unvaried when nonsmokers and smokers were analyzed separately.
  • (6) In terms of the present model, B and deltaVh are explicit functions of the internal K+ concentrations and are thus constant only as long as this is unvaried.

  • (8) It is suggested that the survival advantage and hence the prevalence of sickle cell trait may be greatest in some hyperendemic areas and less where malaria transmission is extremely high or when it is high and unvaried.
  • (9) In addition, the reanalysed data show that yield strain is strongly strain-rate dependent, but that Young's modulus is rather unvarying over physiological strain rates.
