(1) Part 1 of this report is based on a special sample taken when Tatu was 63 months old and Dar was 56 months old, in which experimenters used a large pool of nameable objects, and asked a naming question and at least one descriptive question about the same object in the same context.
(2) Tatu and Dar replied to naming questions (WHAT THAT?
(3) "And when they do, it's usually a citation – for example, today's Femen protest or, several years ago, quoting a song from [the Russian rock group] Tatu."
(5) While onscreen their use of lesbianism appears to be a way of increasing viewer interest (this is of course one of the oldest tricks in the book, think taTu ), backstage they both speak openly about how they're sucking their stomachs in trying to out-sex each other.
(6) The chimpanzees Washoe, Moja, Tatu, and Dar were reared under human cross-fostering conditions that included the use of American Sign Language (ASL) as the medium of two-way communication.
(7) Ten positive, five neutral, and five negative events were presented to two chimpanzees, Tatu (female, 64 months old) and Dar (male, 56 months old), who had been cross-fostered from birth by human beings.
Tau
Definition:
(n.) The common American toadfish; -- so called from a marking resembling the Greek letter tau (/).
Example Sentences:
(1) For each temporal position of the independent noise, discriminability was a function of the ratio of the duration of the independent noise (tau) to the total burst duration.
(2) The 'intermediate' (tau 1) and 'slow' (tau 2) components were seen by curve fitting M-current deactivation currents.
(3) Tau protein can be transformed into an Alzheimer-like state by phosphorylation with a kinase activity from brain [Biernat et al.
(4) A "peeling" technique was used to estimate the time constants (tau 0 and tau 1) and coefficients (a0 and a1) of the first two exponential terms of the series of exponential terms whose sum represented the slope of the voltage response.
(5) The antibody to tau-labeled microtubules from normal human brains assembled in vitro but identically treated Alzheimer brain preparations had to be dephosphorylated to be completely recognized by this antibody.
(6) However, prepubertal heifers exposed to long-day photoperiods had reduced (P less than .01) urinary N tau-methylhistidine excretion compared with heifers given short-day photoperiods.
(7) In this study we confirmed this finding in two cases of PSP by using Bodian silver staining and immunohistochemistry with antibody to human tau protein.
(8) These data suggest that the induction of tau and MAP1 in response to NGF promotes microtubule assembly and that these factors are therefore key regulators of neurite outgrowth.
(9) (4) R(XY)(t,tau) is a biased estimator of the shape of h(t), generally over-estimating both its time to peak and its rise time.
(10) The monoexponential pattern of restitution was seen with model-independent descriptors of relaxation as well as with tau.
(11) The R. temporaria embryos at stages from insemination to the 1st cleavage division were incubated for 1 tau 0 in different saline solutions.
(12) Another parameter, the time constant of augmentation (tau a), was not significantly changed by muscle stretching.
(13) The mean channel open time (tau) estimated from the half-power frequency was 2 msec at 37 degrees C and -90 mV holding potential.
(14) The time constant of the increase of force during the stretch decreased (tau rise congruent to 7 ms to tau rise congruent to 4 ms) with increases in v (congruent to 4 microns s-1 to v congruent to 10 microns s-1; P = 0.02).
(15) The observed north-south differences in the phase relation of both pacemaker and rhythm to the light cycle are explained by the latitudinal clines in pacemaker properties and a postulated aftereffect of photoperiod on tau.
(16) In the presence of 4-AP the difference between the decay time constant of EPC (tau epc) and MEPC (tau mepc) became much more pronounced.
(17) The anti-ptau 1- and anti-ptau 2-recognition sites were immunochemically localized to the fragment Asp313 to Ile328 in the most COOH-terminal portion of tau.
(18) Immunocytochemical studies to clarify these argyrophilic structures in the OPCA subjects employed paired helical filament (PHF), microtubule associated proteins (MAPs), MAP1, MAP2, MAP5, tau, ubiquitin, neurofilament (200 or 70 kilodaltons) and myelin basic protein (MBP) antisera.
(19) TAU approach showed a significant inferiority (p less than 0.02) and TVU a significant superiority (p less than 0.08) in comparison to palpation.
(20) They also bind to high-molecular-weight microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) and tau.
