Lie vs Lay - 01

Choose an appropriate word from the choices and also modify the verb to its appropriate tense based on the context.

The advantages of the presented approach ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) in its simplicity and versatility.

It is to be noted that the intensity of the 455 nm peak decreases with increase in the temperature, and one possible reason may ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) in the aggregation of grafted chains causing the graphene sheets to be nearer to each other

A less obvious consequence of the contact line tilting caused by the presence of other floating objects is the associated modification of the vertical supporting force supplied by surface tension and hence the vertical force balance. The analogous problem has been studied for two cylinders ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) horizontally at an interface

Another significant implication of the material ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) in the economi advantage when compared to commercial Pt/C.

Some Right-wing scholars and historians blame Macaulay’s educational system for this distortion, but it would be bordering on the ridiculous to ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) the blame for this travesty at the door of a man who died more than 150 years ago.

Having highlighted the responsiveness of networks of tethered GUVs to temperature changes,16,17, and ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) down the foundational theory of such systems,16,17,30,31, in this paper we test the response of adhering GUVs to changes in the concentration of free linkers

Therefore, the static contact angle can ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) anywhere between the advancing and receding contact angles (θa ≥ θs ≥ θr) and is a function of chemical heterogeneity at the water contact line.

Signals of the Hedgehog pathway are essential in directing cell proliferation and patterning during embryogenesis. The pathway ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) at the cross-road of cell survival and differentiation decisions and unscheduled Hh signaling can lead to hyper-proliferation and the development of malignancies.

Specifically, we demonstrate that entropic contributions derived from the tetrameric nature of SA ligands ____________ a crucial role in determining the onset of adhesion upon increasing the ligand concentration and the trend observed in the bond breakup kinetics.

The carbon nanotubes had higher area-normalized log Kd’s than organo-clay (Figure S2a) and activated carbon (Figure S2b) as all data points ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) below the 1-to-1 correspondence line. Although activated carbon possessed a much higher specific surface area than the MWCNT, this advantage did not translate into higher area-normalized log Kd’s.

However, owing to steric hindrance, simultaneous binding of two ligands to the homodimers at the same location can hardly be satisfied, and the molecular mechanism ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) this natural design is still unknown.

To obtain the free energy landscape ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) the mechanical dissociation (e.g., free energy barrier and the width of the potential well ), dynamic force spectroscopy has been widely used.

The images are an ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) of a maximum intensity projection of a Z-stack and one DIC channel.

Figure 2. (a) Formation of ice crystals can be seen in cryo-TEM image of water-swollen GECO composites, (b) carbon and oxygen maps ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) on (a)

Having highlighted the responsiveness of networks of tethered GUVs to temperature changes and ____________ (lie, lay, overlie, overlay, underlie, underlay) the foundational theory of such systems, in this paper we test the response of adhering GUVs to changes in the concentration of free linkers in solution that mediate the adhesion, thus exploring the potential for biosensing.
