While tuberculosis can mimic a variety of other pulmonary diseases, pulmonary tuberculosis can be present without obvious changes on the chest x-ray.

We may observe by induction on the number of moves made by My that Mi will mimic the ID of M-2 on its own tape, if you take the lower track, reverse it, and follow it by the upper track.
С помощью индукции по числу переходов, совершаемых М2, можно заметить, что Mt имитирует МО М2 на своей ленте, если взять нижнюю дорожку, развернуть и дописать к ней верхнюю.

A mimic cannot resemble all of them: it has to commit itself to one particular nasty species. In general, any particular species of mimic is a specialist at mimicking one particular nasty species.
Данная бабочка может подражать лишь одному виду, а не всем сразу: Вообще каждый отдельный вид специализируется на подражании одному определенному "невкусному" виду.

Delphi doesn't (currently) have a way to define class data, but you can mimic this functionality by adding global data in the implementation portion of the unit defining the class.
Delphi (в настоящее время) не имеет возможности определить данные класса, но можно имитировать эту возможность, добавив глобальные данные в раздел реализации модуля, определяющего этот класс;

Note that doing this perfectly without additional information is, in general, an impossible task, because some data words may have values that mimic instruction object codes.
Заметим, что в общем случае выполнение этой задачи полностью и без дополнительной информации невозможно, потому что некоторые слова данных могут иметь значения, совпадающие с кодами объектных инструкций.

But there are species of mimic that do something very strange. Some individuals of the species mimic one nasty species; other individuals mimic another.
Но у некоторых мимикрирующих видов обнаружено очень странное явление: одни особи данного вида подражают одному "невкусному" виду, а другие - другому.

To judge from the fact that he can easily mimic a bass or a tenor with any specific modulations, his natural voice must be a sonorous baritone.
Судя по тому, что легко переходит и на бас, и на тенор с любыми модуляциями, природный его голос — звучный баритон.
