Exempel på hur man kan använda APOSEMATIC i en mening

• Lytta vesicatoria, also known as the Spanish fly, is an aposematic emerald-green beetle in the blister beetle family (Meloidae).
• While at rest blue-lined octopus are highly camouflaged, due to the presence of chromatophores under the skin they can rapidly change body coloration, using aposematic signals to display bright blue lines to predators.
• Aposematism is currently thought to have originated at least four times within the poison dart family according to phylogenetic trees, and dendrobatid frogs have since undergone dramatic divergences – both interspecific and intraspecific – in their aposematic coloration.
• The name "fire-bellied" is derived from the brightly colored red- or yellow-and-black patterns on the toads' ventral regions, which act as aposematic coloration, a warning to predators of the toads' reputedly foul taste.
• The Arctiidae subfamily of Noctuid moths uniquely respond to bat echolocation in three prevailing hypotheses: startle, sonar jamming, and acoustic aposematic defense.
• In Batesian mimicry, a mimicking species resembles an aposematic model closely enough to share the protection, while many species have bluffing deimatic displays which may startle a predator long enough to enable an otherwise undefended prey to escape.
• The bright yellow, orange or reddish colours of many species in this genus are generally considered aposematic (warning colours), It is unknown how certain Brachycephalus species attain the strong neurotoxins, but they are possibly absorbed from the small invertebrates they eat, as known from some poison dart frogs and mantella frogs, or produced by bacteria inside their body.
• The early larval instars of some aposematic, day-flying looper moths are specific to cycads, and genus Encephalartos is one of their food plants.
• virescens caterpillars are possibly able to sequester the cytisine to give themselves protection from predation; they have aposematic coloration which would warn off potential predators.
• Adults contain the toxic cantharidin in their corporal fluids as a defensive mechanism; several species show brilliant and metallic blue, green, gold or coppery, often combined with yellow, orange or red, aposematic colourations.
• For example, aposematic signals in Heliconius butterflies sometimes display steep clines between populations, which are maintained through positive frequency dependence.
• Cardiac glycosides found in the Imago by Miriam Rothschild indicate that the so-far unidentified larva, most probably, sequesters foodplant toxins which persist through pupation into the imago as an aposematic protection against predation, and therefore that the larval foodplant is probably an asclepiad vine.
• Defensive mimicry includes the well-known Batesian and Müllerian forms of mimicry, where the mimic shares outward characteristics with an aposematic or harmful model.
• ephippium is overall bright yellow-orange and this is considered aposematic (warning colours) since its skin and organs contain tetrodotoxin and similar toxins.
• Rather than having aposematic coloration like other mutillids, the females of this species are camouflaged by their resemblance to the fruit of Creosotebush, which occurs in the same habitats.
• Its color camouflages it against the tree bark, but if a predator detects it and approaches from the front, the mantis rears up on its hind limbs, displaying its aposematic colouring to startle and scare away the assailant.
• The insect's coloration was shown to be aposematic in an experiment of predation by little striped whiptail lizards.
• The Greek derived category names include the now widely used aposematic and cryptic, alongside such epithets as "apatetic", "procryptic", "anticryptic", "episematic" and "epigamic", with variants.
• Where predators are initially startled but learn to eat the displaying prey, the display is classed as deimatic, and the prey is bluffing; where they continue to avoid the prey after tasting it, the display is taken as aposematic, meaning the prey is genuinely distasteful.
• Like ovorubin and scalarin, PmPV1 is highly glycosylated (~13% w/w) and carries carotenoid pigments, indicating that this perivitellin would probably have the antioxidant, photoprotective, aposematic and water retention functions described for its orthologous.
