Tuned


Definition:

  • (imp. & p. p.) of Tune

Example Sentences:

  • (5) Four million viewers tune in to the show every week and two million more watch online the next day.
  • (6) Low calcium causes an increase in optimum frequency, a decrease in current threshold, and an increase in sharpness of tuning in both real axons and axons computed according to the Hodgkin-Huxley formulation; high calcium causes opposite effects.
  • (7) Dictated by underlying physicochemical constraints, deceived at times by the lulling tones of the siren entropy, and constantly vulnerable to the vagaries of other more pervasive forms of biological networking and information transfer encoded in the genes of virus and invading microorganisms, protein biorecognition in higher life forms, and particularly in mammals, represents the finely tuned molecular avenues for the genome to transfer its information to the next generation.
  • (8) Tuning curves of afferent electroreceptive fibers in the anterior lateral line nerve of the weakly electric fish, Sternopygus macrurus, indicate that the tuberous electroreceptors of each individual are well-tuned to its own electric organ discharge (EOD) frequency.
  • (9) It is more in tune with the subjective experiencing a person has of that which defines and moves him in the world.
