(1) The essays are heavily laced with anger, remorse and angst, as Powell examines his life on microscopic and macroscopic levels.(2) On the scale of an erythrocyte, a change in the primary nucleation rates could have profound effects even if macroscopic experiments revealed very little difference.(3) This type of leadership involves microscopic perceptions and macroscopic expectations.(4) Here we use reconstituted actin gels seeded with particles as a model system to explore the relation between the macroscopic and microscopic properties of actin.(5) Energy is not only involved in macroscopic processes, but in microscopic processes as well.(6) All those concerned with disorders of the human body must start from a background of knowledge of its normal macroscopic and microscopic structure.(7) Wound reactions of trees have been the subject of numerous investigations at the macroscopic and microscopic levels.(8) Changes on the microscopic level eventually spill over into the macroscopic level.(9) At the microscopic and macroscopic levels fracture results from the passage of a crack through a region of material.(10) Starting at the macroscopic chromosome level we see that its structure can strongly vary throughout the cell cycle on timescales of hours or days.(11) Another part of us recognizes instinctively that nature designs in fractals, with intriguing detail on every scale from the microscopic to the macroscopic .(12) The oldest fossil that may represent a macroscopic organism is about 2.1 billion years old.(13) These elements include loading conditions, rate of crack growth, and macroscopic and microscopic appearance of fracture surfaces.(14) The presence of myocardial infarction was confirmed by macroscopic and histological examination of the myocardium.(15) Temporal programs reflecting the 24 h cycle of day and night are expressed by most organisms from microscopic cyanobacteria to macroscopic humans.(16) Banded iron formations are so named in part because of their distinctive banded or layered structure, which occurs at various scales from microscopic to macroscopic .
