Behavioural strategies

This example shows how population behaviour strategy works. Hochachka and Somero (1973) considered it to be superior to biochemical strategy and, in...

Not aU of that variability in response to a stressor is explained by genotype, life stage or circumstances. The magnitude and nature of the response are also partly determined by behavioural strategy. These have also been referred to as behavioural syndromes, personahties or temperaments. 

Behavioural strategies are associated with profound differences from the level of gene expression through the metabolome to the neuroendocrine, immune and other systems (MacKenzie et al., 2009). These differences are not only at the level of the neuroedocrine and immune systems but may be mediated through perception since hawks are inherently less responsive to environmental changes. In both hawks and doves an event can be more stressful if it is unpredictable.

New, interactive in silico teaching and educational tools will be available for doctors and the greater public. This will help to improve professional skills and general health awareness. Future health-related implications of an individual s behavioural patterns or of various treatment strategies can be assessed and compared on the basis of long-term case predictions. 

Neurotransmitter receptors have evolved as one of the key components in the ability of the central nervous system to coordinate the behaviour of the whole animal, to process and respond to sensory input, and to adapt to change in the environment. These same receptors are therefore ideal targets for drug action because of their central role in the activity of the nervous system. A rational approach to the development of new therapeutic strategies involving the action of drugs at receptors in the nervous system is based on knowledge of receptor structure, distribution and function. 

A basic use of a process model is to analyse experimental data and to use this to characterise the process, by assigning numerical values to the important process variables. The model can then also be solved with appropriate numerical data values and the model predictions compared with actual practical results. This procedure is known as simulation and may be used to confirm that the model and the appropriate parameter values are "correct". Simulations, however, can also be used in a predictive manner to test probable behaviour under varying conditions, leading to process optimisation and advanced control strategies. 

Considering the injection phase, control of the behaviour of injected C02 is one of the most important tasks. For instance, the control and monitoring strategy must ... 

Terrence Brown. Well, I continue to have a lot of trouble with the application of explanatory strategies to the wrong level. I don t think that the sickle-cell example has much to do with behavioural examples, because sickle-cells behaviour is not meaning-mediated.
