The neurological mechanism that makes muscles relax when they are not in use does not function properly.

The mechanisms within our vessel functioned perfectly, or so we believed.

It would be interest- ing to see how the mechanism functioned when the elevator stopped.

She added that in high heat, the normal mechanisms for restoring the body's optimal core temperature cannot function.

The mechanism apparently did not function as expected, and the equipment was removed two years later, in 1944.

Recent research has indicated that a different mechanism may function in Drosophila.

That means that the mechanism of power is not functioning properly.

How long could such a complicated mechanism continue to function accurately without a controlled inspection by rational, living beings?

It astounded her that the mechanism functioned after being immersed for centuries in the salty sea.

This mechanism could also function in the opposite direction.
