A mixture of the melanistic with the albinistic type will of course give rise to parti-coloured cats.

The vast number of microphonic contacts present give rise to very strong electrical undulations, and hence to a loud sound.

It is convenient to distinguish buds that give rise to polyps from those that form medusae.

The common mushroom (Agaricus campestris) is propagated by spores, the fine black dust seen to be thrown off when a mature specimen is laid on white paper or a white dish; these give rise to what is known as the "spawn" or mycelium, which consists of whitish threads permeating dried dung or similar substances, and which, when planted in a proper medium, runs through the mass, and eventually develops the fructification known as the mushroom.

Since concordats are contracts they give rise to that special mutual obligation which results from every agreement freely entered into; for a contract is binding on both parties to it.
