Then, activating the Yore's lock, he rode across the imaginary drawbridge that spanned the mirage-moat, and set forth into the forest.
You open them like this," he explained, pulling one out and activating the desealer.
There is also an increase in the size of certain at least of the activating glands--the thyroid and the adrenals are enlarged and overactive and the glycogen-producing function of the liver is stimulated.
Hyperchromatism was shown only in the presence of the activating stimuli or within a very short time after they had been received.
This integration caused a conversion of the potential energy in the brain-cells into kinetic energy, and there resulted a discharge into the blood-stream of activating internal secretions for the purpose of producing muscular action.
That is, by disconnecting one or more of the activating organs from the brain, the motor mechanism might be saved from its self-destruction.
Nephritis, also, may result from emotional stress, because of the strain put upon the kidneys by the unconsumed activating substances.
The increased heart action and the presence of these activating secretions may cause myocarditis and heart degeneration.
In the springtime most birds and mammals mate, and in the springtime at least one of the great activating glands is enlarged--the thyroid in man and in animals shows seasonal enlargement.
The diminished size of the thyroid of the aged bears testimony to the part the activating organs bear in the general decline.
He had no recollection of the actual murder, no memory of aiming the weapon and activating it.
Activating the switch that opened the shutters, Barrent was able to look out on the vast spectacle of stars glowing in the blackness of space.
No, it's absolutely safe now, and will be safe until this stud is turned, releasing the activating gas from one compartment to mingle with the radium compound in the other section.
His stiff fingers fumbled agonizingly with the activating stud.
The activating of charcoal offered at the start considerably more of a problem than the question of making the charcoal itself, since activating had never before been conducted on a commercial scale.
She could at least try activating his latent telepathic ability.
Medart felt it and touched his throat, activating his comm implant.
By this method it is possible to imitate the activating effect of the living spermatozoon upon the egg in every detail and eggs treated in this way will develop in large numbers into perfectly normal larvae.
The activating effect of the membrane formation has, therefore, been reversed and the eggs have gone back into the resting stage.
Wasteneys and the writer (in experiments not yet published) did not succeed in demonstrating anactivating effect of the eggs of various marine teleosts upon sperm of the same species.
In the case of the heterogeneous hybridization the spermatozoon acts practically only as an activating agency upon the egg and not as a transmitter of paternal qualities.
These experiments furnished proof that the activatingeffect of the spermatozoon upon the egg can be replaced by a purely physicochemical agency.
Zolan tensed, activating the mind-mike in his armpit.
Alignment to major concentrations of potential sources, selection of a 'first phase' work site, calibration of instrumentation and activating its spunnel channels and monitors required still more.
If the suitable models in PSM are missing, or if there are suitable shielding models, there are no limits in activating the most incredible models.
If the simulated jump succeeds, it can be done in the external reality as well, activating the model, which did the simulated successful jump.
A shielding model is a model, which is made to prevent a normal model from activating the PSM and also to transmit to the model with problems some information to stabilize it.
He'd as much as commanded the Swami to cut out all this shilly-shallying and get down to the business of activating antigrav cylinders, or else.
Apparently it was too heavy for the weak force activating the cylinders.
He manipulated the dials and had just got an outside view as the pilot began activating the tubes.
Activating the bird's brain he sent out a call to others of its kind that it had found food in abundance.
Chapter 20 The twentieth part of Hanlon's mind activating the pigeon in the ventilator, commanded it to scramble back out the moment he sensed what that command would be.
He had surreptitiously placed automatic signal points into the Martian system without activating them until this moment.
Pressing this button is the last step in activating the rest of the power plant.
It has been agreed to call the stimulative or activating portion the autonomic or drive system.
For the internal secretion of the thyroid has a selective affinity for the autonomic or activating system, while that of the adrenals has a selective affinity for the sympathetic or inhibiting system.
Activating the strike force at the next terror attack is something I had already intended; it will be done.
As soon as they got to the main floor, he touched his throat, activating his comm implant.
He hit the Enter key, activating the pumps for the heat exchangers, then turned to see Cally approaching, winding her way through the workstations, led by the head terrorist, the fucker who called himself Number One.
Thank you very much, Ramirez thought, and flipped a switch, activating the starboard Swatter's heat-seeking guidance system.
Activating the screen, he tuned to the Imperial guard channel.
He released his boots' mag-field and pushed off toward the light, waiting until he was perhaps five meters off the hull before activating his thrustpac.
He set up the pattern on the board and punched the activating lever.
With terror-widened eyes he watched Russ set up the equations, saw him trip the activating lever, saw the men disappear, listened to the thunderous rumbling of the mighty engines.
Russ's thumb reached out and tripped the activating lever.
