The mean and standard deviation of the familiarity degree and association degree rating in Experiment 2.

<p>Note: M = mean; SD = standard deviation.</p

This figure shows the results of Experiment 1 (length: a,b), Experiment 2 (weight: c,d), and Experiment 3 (volume: e,f).

<p>In Panels a, c, and e, the estimated duration in millisecond (ms) was plotted as a function of actual duration in millisecond. In Panels b, d, and f, the estimated duration was plotted as a function of the implicit magnitude. Error bars correspond to the standard error of the mean.</p

The mean and standard deviation of the familiarity degree and association degree rating in Experiment 1.

<p>Note: M = mean; SD = standard deviation.</p

The mean and standard deviation of the familiarity degree and association degree rating in Experiment 3.

<p>Note: M = mean; SD = standard deviation.</p

The mean and standard deviation of the estimated weight and the number of strokes for the target words selected for Experiment 2.

<p>Note: M = mean; SD = standard deviation; kg = kilogram.</p

The mean and standard deviation of the estimated length and the number of strokes for the target words selected for Experiment 1.

Twelve differentially expressed miRNAs in two different growth phases in <i>A</i>. <i>catenella</i>.

<p>log₂ (fold change):log₂ (the normalized expression in the lag phase /the normalized expression in the logarithmic phase); R+1 means the miRNA_seq (detected) is one base more than known rep_miRSeq on the right side; L-1 means the miRNA_seq (detected) is one base less than known rep_miRSeq on the left side; 1ss11GC means one substitution (ss), where G was substituted by C at position 11.</p><p>Twelve differentially expressed miRNAs in two different growth phases in <i>A</i>. <i>catenella</i>.</p

Venn diagram of identified known miRNAs in the two libraries.

<p>The diagram not only shows the numbers of miRNA that were expressed in the lag phase and the logarithmic phase preferentially but also the co-expressed miRNAs in both phases.</p
