death and sinevolutionscience and theologyhuman originOne of most contested Christian doctrines is about original sin. In this article is argued that on this point modern evolutionary thought and traditional Christianity match very well. They have the same basic structure, with similar problems and ...
and generally represents a transition from gonochorism to hermaphroditism (as in the androdioeciousCaenorhabditis elegans), likely due to selection for reproductive assurance rather than the reverse direction of change2,9,10,11. In animals, transitions from hermaphroditic ancestors to androdioecy ...
To date, dozens of LINE families falling into 17 clades have been described (Lovsin et al., 2001; Eickbush and Malik, 2002; Bailey et al., 2003). The horizontal transmission of LINEs is by far less common compared with DNA transposons and LTR elements; possibly, some LINE families are ...

Does Glycosylation as a modifier of Original Antigenic Sin explain the case age distribution and unusual toxicity in pandemic novel H1N1 influenza? p pBackground/p pA pandemic novel H1N1 swine-origin influenza virus has emerged. Most recently the World Health Organization has announced that in a co...
where we have already equated the renormalization and factorization scale with Q2. Here, Lq=Tq3−2eqsin2θW and Rq=−2eqsin2θW, where θW denotes the Weinberg angle and Tq3 is the third component of the weak isospin. The structure function coefficient functions CFLF~2(1)=...
The transition from prokaryotes to eukaryotes was the most radical change in cell organisation since life began, with the largest ever burst of gene duplication and novelty. According to the coevolutionary theory of eukaryote origins, the fundamental inn

Bird sex chromosomes play a unique role in sex-determination, and affect the sexual morphology and behavior of bird species. Core waterbirds, a major clade of birds, share the common characteristics of being sexually monomorphic and having lower levels o
From a gene-culture evolutionary perspective, the recent rise in obesity rates around the Developed world is unprecedented; perhaps the most rapid population-scale shift in human phenotype ever to occur. Focusing on the recent rise of obesity and diabetes in the United States, we consider the pre...
