Energy in the depositional environment: The first key to the identification of sedimentary facies and environments is the relationship between energy and clast size. Generally, the higher the energy (that is, the faster the wind or water is moving) the larger the grains that can be kept in suspension.
pig porphyria. an erythropoietic porphyria, similar to bovine congenital erythropoietic porphoryia, but inherited as a dominant trait. Discoloration of the teeth, bones and tissues occurs, but not of the urine, except in severely affected cases.Photosensitization is not a feature. The enzymatic defect is unknown.nherited as an autosomal dominant trait; affected cats have discolored teeth, urine and tissues, severe anemia and photosensitivity associated with a deficiency of uroporphyrinogen III cosynthetase. inherited porphyria. the disease is inherited in cattle and swine and is similar to erythropoietic porphyria of humans.
Dominant trait. A genetic trait in which one copy of the gene is sufficient to yield an outward display of the trait; dominant genes mask the presence of recessive genes; dominant traits can be inherited from a single parent.Mentioned in: Cutis Laxa, Polydactyly and Syndactyly, Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum.n inherited characteristic that is determined by a dominant allele. Polydactyly is an example of a dominant trait; individuals with either one or two copies of the polydactyly allele have extra fingers or toes. (dom'i-nÄnt trÄt).
