At the individual level, the reproductive investment of females, which is responsible for seed production, is usually greater than that of males, which is responsible for pollen generation7. However, determining the reproductive allocation within a population is complicated because (1) in some wind-...
The development of values is an important task in emerging adulthood. Values are perceived as the result of a socializing process, yet little is known about the mechanisms which are key in the development of different values. The aim of this study is to contribute to values research by investi...
The global increase in species richness toward the tropics across continents and taxonomic groups, referred to as the latitudinal diversity gradient, stimulated the formulation of many hypotheses to explain the underlying mechanisms of this pattern. We evaluate several of these hypotheses to explain spati...
Finally, it reviews review critical experiments that successfully tested this corticothalamic feedback mechanism for absence seizure generation.Alain DestexheComputational Neuroscience in EpilepsyDestexhe, A., 2008.

Hereditary, the feature film debut of writer/director Ari Aster, received an unprecedented amount of buzz after screenings at Sundance, SXSW, and The Overlook film festivals; more than one reviewer predicted it’ll be considered this generation’s The Exorcist. My personal assessment: It’s the...
priming them for subsequent completion of the speciation process. Transposition activity induced by the stress of volcanic environments is thus proposed as the key factor in the generation of new genetic variants, and in the genome reorganization that is the critical driver of the subsequent evolutiona...
“families”. Each individual has a genetically determined pure Cooperate or Defect strategy, and its payoff from the threshold game determines the number of clonal offspring it contributes to the next generation. The model assumes that all offspring join a global pool, so competition in this ...
but it can rift apart by thinning and heating to form new oceans. In theory, continental plate subsides in proportion to the amount it is thinned and subsequently by the rate it cools down. However, seismic and borehole data from continental margins like the Atlantic show that the upper surf...
