The adaptive response is a DNA damage response pathway prevalent across bacteria that protects DNA from damage by external agents or by errors during replication...

predictive adaptive response (PAR) is a developmental trajectory taken by an organism during a period of developmental plasticity in response to perceived...

In molecular biology, Adaptive response 33 (adapt33) is a long non-coding RNA. It was originally identified in hamster fibroblast cells. Its expression...

changes in context, that require new adaptive responses to meet the demands and dangers of that new context. Adaptive skills may generate more opportunities...

to adapt to recognize pathogens more efficiently. Adaptive (or acquired) immunity creates an immunological memory leading to an enhanced response to subsequent...

Adaptive music is music which changes in response to real-time events or user interactions, found most commonly in video games. It may change in volume...

Starvation response in animals (including humans) is a set of adaptive biochemical and physiological changes, triggered by lack of food or extreme weight...

complexity of the optimization algorithms, almost all adaptive filters are digital filters. Adaptive filters are required for some applications because some...

occurs when a learned, previously adaptive response to one stimulus interferes with the acquisition of an adaptive response to a novel stimulus that is similar...

hosts react to infections with an innate response, often involving inflammation, followed by an adaptive response. Treatment for infections depends on the...
