Example sentences for: extrinsic
How can you use “extrinsic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Transection of the peripheral axons of primary sensory neurons results in profound alterations in their metabolism, regenerative capacity, survival, excitability, transmitter function and sensitivity to diverse extrinsic and intrinsic signals [ 1 2 ] . These changes are contributed to by transcriptional alterations triggered by a loss of trophic support from peripheral target organs, and by novel signals generated at the injury site.
Previously, we identified correlations between large-scale variation in winter climate, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) [ 9 ] , and: predation efficiency of wolves ( Canis lupus ), mortality of old moose ( Alces alces ), and growth dynamics of balsam fir ( Abies balsamea ) on Isle Royale [ 6 ] . Additionally, we have documented influences of the NAO, wolf predation, and density dependence on the intrinsic rate of increase in the moose population on Isle Royale [ 10 ] . Hence, the current analysis was motivated by the results of these earlier attempts to dissect the relative contributions of intrinsic and extrinsic processes to the dynamics of this community, as well as by a more general interest in developing a community-level model of climatic effects at and among multiple trophic levels that may subsequently contribute to our understanding of the implications of climatic change for community stability.
With extrinsic factors, daughter cells are equivalent after separation but adopt different fates due to their interactions with the environment.
If so, the extrinsic factors should be viewed as inducers and intrinsic factors as effectors of asymmetric division.
In other words, asymmetric division in vivo may be a result of the influence of both extrinsic and intrinsic factors.
