What is the difference betweenacculturation,assimilation, andamalgamation? Acculturationis one of several forms of culture contact, and has a couple of closely related terms, includingassimilationandamalgamation. Although all three of these words refer to changes due to contact between different cultures,...
The important factor in assimilation is not the absolute degree of digestibility but the rate at which food substances are digested, which may limit subsequent absorption. The degree of assimilation depends on the nutritional regimen, food content, method of culinary preparation, and gastrointestinal ...
“The distinction is based on the difference between culture and society and, accordingly, acculturation refers mainly to the newcomers’ adoption of the culture {i.e., behavior patterns, values, rules, symbols etc.) of the host society (or rather an overly homogenized and reified conception of...
(by extension) The absorption of new ideas into an existing cognitive structure. (phonology) A sound change process by which the phonetics of a speech segment becomes more like that of another segment in a word (or at a word boundary), so that a change of phoneme occurs. ...
The uptake of 15N-labeled ammonium and nitrate and their assimilation in 4-week-old Indica and Japonica rice plants were studied during 24 hr exposure to 2 mM solutions of (15NH4)SO4 and/or Na13NO3. Although there was no clear difference in the uptake and assimilation or 15NH4 +, signif...
N absorption and assimilationnitrateN uptakewheatReal time pcrTen genotypes of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were grown for 20 days in complete nutrient solution with 1 mM (nitrogen-insufficient), 4 mM (nitrogen-moderate) and 10 mM (nitrogen-sufficient) nitrogen (N) levels, and nitrogen ...
However, the UV–visible spectrum of one of the HPLC resolved products of ethyl acetate extract of the acidified preparation of cell-free extract-mediated NAD+-dependent transformation product(s) of 1-acenaphthenol showed absorption maxima at 214 and 250 nm and a shoulder from 315 to 340 nm ...
Specific Absorption Rate This is an index of the uptake efficiency of roots, calculated in relation to some measure of root size. The usual symbol isA, defined as the rate of uptake of mineral nutrient,M, expressed per unit of total root size, which may be root dry weight,RW, or, alter...
Instead of appropriating captured pieces and later dropping them back on the board as your own, as you do in Chessgi or Shogi, captured pieces are sometimes assimilated into the capturing piece, transforming it into a more powerful compound piece. The difference between Assimilation Chess and ...
the bacterial consortia boosted chickpea’s nutritional absorption and antioxidant mechanism. Most importantly, chickpea plants phytoremediated 52% of the initial PHCs concentration; however, adding BC1 and BC2 with chickpea plants further increased this removal and remediated 74% and 80% of the init...
