Investors are stuck in sub-optimal investments.
The important point about this tableau is that the desired candidate, (c), is intrinsically suboptimal to (harmonically bounded by) candidate (d).
An understanding of optimal and suboptimal parent-infant interaction depends on consideration of the cry in its behavioral and developmental context.
However, little information is available on seed respiratory characteristics of different cultivars in relation to their capacity to germinate under suboptimal temperatures.
These results suggest that, in some cases, the conventional allocation of pollution control resources across formal and informal polluters may be suboptimal.
These results suggest that, in some cases, the conventional allocation of regulatory resources across formal and informal polluters may be suboptimal.
This suboptimal nature of the in vitro maturation of porcine oocytes might explain, for instance, the lower ability of these oocytes to counteract polyspermy.
Any one of these differences is sufficient to render (20b) suboptimal.
The causes of suboptimal care were predominantly 'failure of organisation', 'lack of knowledge', 'failure to appreciate urgency', and 'lack of supervision'.
