Example sentences for: mammals

How can you use “mammals” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Such a finding would uproot decades of conventional wisdom, which holds that higher mammals add brain cells only in childhood.

  • Sixty grams is confirmed as a critical body mass for induction of estrus in juvenile female opossums as identified in our previous study [ 7 ] . Somatic growth and attainment of a threshold body mass or energy reserves are known requisites for puberty in many mammals including the tammar wallaby [ 26 ] , sheep [ 27 28 ] , and several species of rodents [ 1 ] , but these factors seldom act independently of environmental factors such as photoperiod [ 26 27 ] or social cues [ 3 29 ] . The opossum is unusual in this regard, because social cues in the form of male pheromone appear to stimulate both somatic growth and ovarian activation.

  • For computational efficiency reasons, alignments that still contained more than 600 sequences were further pruned; sequences not originating from SWISS-PROT were discarded, and sequences from certain mammals were excluded (mouse, rabbit, hamsters, goat, all primates except human), since mammals are likely to be oversampled in most Pfam families.

  • The mites affect game animals like agouti and can attack man since they attach themselves to all mammals and vertebrates.

  • Early splice site choice in mammals involves protein-protein interactions across the exon, as is proposed in the exon definition model of Berget [ 21 ] . Exon definition is mediated in part by SR proteins bridging between the small nuclear ribonucloprotein (snRNP) U1 at a downstream 5' splice site and the U2AF heterodimer at the upstream 3' splice site.
