![]() That makes the compact Mazda crossover our choice – by a smidge – between the two.īut you can't go wrong with either of these vehicles, honestly. And it barely loses any of the Mazda3 hatchback's impressive dynamics and fun-to-drive nature, which we loved so much in our review. The CX-30's taller ride height and higher seating position make it a touch more comfortable on the road. ![]() ![]() That said, we do like one a bit more than the other: the CX-30. They exist in two different segments, sure, but that doesn't mean much given they have almost the same amount of interior space. Because they're so similar (and therefore, so good) there's nothing truly definitive that sets one apart from the other. Also, both vehicles sport a central digital instrument cluster that offers readouts for things like speed and safety. The Mazda3 and CX-30 have the same steering wheel and the same 8.8-inch touchscreen running the company's latest infotainment setup. The significant interior bits, outside of some stylistic differences, go almost unchanged. Front-wheel-drive comes standard and all-wheel drive is available – both of the cars pictured here have that $1,400 AWD option box ticked. That engine produces 186 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque. The same platform props up both vehicles, and the same 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine powers them both, too. But under that shiny sheet metal, the two cars are pretty much identical. Mazda's signature “Kodo” design language (though slightly modified) is the most prominent carryover from the 3 hatchback to the larger CX-30. Obviously, these two cars have more similarities than they do differences. The loaded hatchback costs $28,900 before options, while the most expensive CX-30 Premium costs $29,600. All-wheel drive is $1,400 extra on both vehicles, but at the top of the range, the Mazda3 Premium is actually cheaper. But the CX-30 is actually more affordable to start, asking just $21,900 with a front-wheel-drive configuration. ![]() A base front-wheel-drive 2020 Mazda3 hatchback costs $23,700. And both cars can hold 12.7 gallons of fuel in all-wheel-drive configurations.Īnd finally, price. The all-wheel-drive CX-30, surprisingly, is a touch better – achieving 25 mpg city, 32 highway, and 27 combined at its best. At its most efficient, the all-wheel-drive Mazda3 gets 24 miles per gallon city, 32 highway, and 27 combined. Though both cars boast the same 2.5-liter engine and six-speed automatic transmission (and in this case, optional all-wheel drive), fuel economy varies slightly. And cargo space behind the rear seat is almost exactly the same: 20.1 cubic feet in the Mazda3 versus 20.2 in the CX-30. While the CX-30 gets slightly more headroom and a touch extra legroom in the rear, the hatchback offers additional leg and shoulder space up front. Not even a loaded Mazda3 offers either of those options.īut don't let the CX-30's "crossover" label fool you, the high-riding Mazda's passenger space nearly mimics that of the smaller 3. The CX-30 – with the Premium package, as tested – also gets a few minor touches that the 3 doesn't, like rear air vents and a power tailgate. White leather is exclusive to the CX-30, while Mazda keeps red leather for the 3 hatchback only. Squint and you might be able to distinguish the CX-30's multicolored brown dash, black door panels, and white leather seats. Inside the differences between the two cars are less obvious. ![]()

However, that’s from a British perspective. it was too early to get our lunch, but now that the bell has rung we should join the lunch line), the ‘proper’ tense for this is the perfect tense (in one of its forms): “The bell has rung,” or “The bell has been rung,” or “Has the cook rung the bell yet?” When the action changes the situation (e.g. it’s now too late, or we’re now in lunch time, or (as opposed to “the bell rang occasionally, or at some point in the past, or just now, but without any change of situation).

The past participle also includes the auxiliary verb have, has, or had depending on whether it is in the present, past, future, or conditional perfect. The past participle of ring changes the central vowel to u. They rang their bike bells when they approached the park. The simple past tense of ring changes the central vowel to an a. They ring their bike bells when they approach the park. Like standard verbs, ring has no change of form or vowel in the present tense. Ring conjugates as ring (present tense), rang (simple past), and rung (past participle). In verb conjugation, a regular verb follows a simple, predictable pattern, such as print (present tense), printed (simple past), and printed (past particle): I print, you printed, and they have printed.Īn irregular verb is one that forms its simple past tense and past participle with a non-standard pattern. ![]() ![]()

The Hetzer lab plans to continue studying how nucleolus size may serve as a reliable biomarker for aging. The work supports other research that appears in the same issue showing that decreasing protein synthesis extends lifespan in roundworms and mice. From left: Martin Hetzer and Abigail BuchwalterĮven more intriguing, the team found that nucleolus size increased with age in the healthy cells, suggesting that the size of the nucleolus could not only be a useful biomarker of aging, but potentially a target of therapies to counter both premature and normal aging. “This indicated a change in protein metabolism that we hadn’t expected.”Īlong with the rapid turnover of proteins, the team found that the nucleolus, which makes protein-assembling structures called ribosomes, was enlarged in the prematurely aging cells compared to healthy cells. “We analyzed all the proteins of the nucleus and instead of seeing rapid turnover in just mutant lamin A and maybe a few proteins associated with it, we saw a really broad shift in overall protein stability in the progeria cells,” says Buchwalter. After measuring protein turnover in cultured cells from skin biopsies of both progeria sufferers and healthy people, she found that it wasn’t just lamin A that was affected in the disease. Initially, Salk Staff Scientist Abigail Buchwalter, first author of the paper, was interested in whether the mutation was making the lamin A protein less stable and shorter lived. The rare mutation occurs in one of the structural proteins in the cell nucleus, lamin A, but it has been unclear how a single defective protein in the nucleus causes the myriad rapid-aging features seen in the disease. Hutchinson-Gilford progeria is a very rare genetic disease causing people to age 8 to 10 times faster than the rest of us and leading to an early death. Our work suggests that one driver of both abnormal and normal aging could be accelerated protein turnover.” Nucleoli in the cell nucleus, stained bright magenta and cyan against the purple backdrop of the nucleus, are enlarged in the progeria cell (right) compared to the normal cell (left). ![]() “When a cell devotes valuable resources to producing protein, other important functions may be neglected. “The production of proteins is an extremely energy-intensive process for cells,” says Martin Hetzer, vice president and chief science officer of the Salk Institute and senior author of the paper.
