Volatile Esters

The relationship between molecular structure and biological efficacy was investigated for 16 esters of 2,4-D [(2,4-dich1orophenoxy)acetic acid] on rubber vine (Cryptostegia grandiflora). These included the normal (n) or straight-chain esters from C-1 (methyl) to C-8 (octyl), the n-decyl, n-dodecyl, isobutyl, amyl (iso-pentyl), 2-ethylhexyl (iso-octyl), and the methoxy-, ethoxy-, and butoxyethyl esters. For the normal series esters, biological efficacy was found to be a function of both the molecular weight and the vapour pressure of the esters. This relationship was linear for the higher molecular weight, low volatile esters, biological efficacy decreasing with increasing molecular weight and the accompanying decrease in vapour pressure of the esters. The low molecular weight, volatile esters were more active than the higher molecular weight, low volatile esters, and increases in the vapour pressure of these low molecular weight, volatile esters were sufficient to account for the deviation from linearity of those esters. When all esters are considered, the same relationships hold but the branched-chain (iso) and chemically substituted (alkoxy alcohol) esters are less effective than the corresponding normal esters. Possible reasons for these results are discussed.

The Relationship

1. Methods for measuring the vapour pressure of cheese and milk are discussed, and vapour pressure/moisture curves are given for a number of different varieties of cheese. The progressive artificial damping and drying of cheese produces no appreciable hysteresis in these curves.2. The vapour pressure curve is much influenced by the amount of salt in the cheese, but differences between varieties cannot be accounted for entirely in terms of differences in NaCl content.3. A preliminary experiment on the relationship between vapour pressure of Stilton cheese and amount of blueing indicated that such a relationship does in fact exist but that a much larger experiment is required before the connexion is fully understood.4. Preliminary experiments on the measurement of the vapour pressure of milk, although interrupted at rather an early stage, showed that, even so, additions of 2–3% of water in milk can be satisfactorily detected.

The Relationship

The amount of water vapour present in the air is indirectly expressed through vapour pressure and for any given temperature there is a limit for water vapour that can be held by air. If the air is holding water vapour which is equal to the maximum that it can hold at a given temperature, then the air is said to be saturated. Hydrometeorological study was carried out using vapour pressure (VP) and maximum temperature data for Warri through 2009 – 2018 (10 years) Saturation Vapour Pressure (SVP) were estimated. A graph is established showing the relationship between the Saturation Vapour Pressure (SVP) and the temperature also the graphical representation showing variational trend of SVP and VP were plotted. The study shows the dew point (Td) ranging from 29.9°C to 31.5°C which explained the likely rainfall at any temperature below Td. The study also confirmed increase in SVP bringing increase in Temperature and the variational trend shows the same pattern all through.

The Relationship

A review is given of information on the galactic-centre region obtained from recent observations of the 21-cm line from neutral hydrogen, the 18-cm group of OH lines, a hydrogen recombination line at 6 cm wavelength, and the continuum emission from ionized hydrogen.Both inward and outward motions are important in this region, in addition to rotation. Several types of observation indicate the presence of material in features inclined to the galactic plane. The relationship between the H and OH concentrations is not yet clear, but a rough picture of the central region can be proposed.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

The Relationship

Abstract This commentary focuses upon the relationship between two themes in the target article: the ways in which a Markov blanket may be defined and the role of precision and salience in mediating the interactions between what is internal and external to a system. These each rest upon the different perspectives we might take while “choosing” a Markov blanket.

Abstract Cognitive Gadgets offers a new, convincing perspective on the origins of our distinctive cognitive faculties, coupled with a clear, innovative research program. Although we broadly endorse Heyes’ ideas, we raise some concerns about her characterisation of evolutionary psychology and the relationship between biology and culture, before discussing the potential fruits of examining cognitive gadgets through the lens of active inference.

Picture Element

It is well known that a large flux of electrons must pass through a specimen in order to obtain a high resolution image while a smaller particle flux is satisfactory for a low resolution image. The minimum particle flux that is required depends upon the contrast in the image and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio at which the data are considered acceptable. For a given S/N associated with statistical fluxtuations, the relationship between contrast and “counting statistics” is s131_eqn1, where C = contrast; r2 is the area of a picture element corresponding to the resolution, r; N is the number of electrons incident per unit area of the specimen; f is the fraction of electrons that contribute to formation of the image, relative to the total number of electrons incident upon the object.
