16, that lead to the loss of gene activity and pseudogenization (detailed in Box 2). This work makes very clear the evolutionary consequences of halting recombination between the sex chromosomes. Why recombination is suppressed in the first place is less clear, as the chromosomes that determine ...

These experiences fueled my vision for MegAlign Pro as an easy-to-use application for any researcher interested in constructing phylogenetic trees and exploring evolutionary relationships between organisms. MegAlign Pro’s graphic-rich interface allows you to load in a variety of taxa (...
When sediment covers an animal's body shortly after death, its bones can fossilize. Soft tissues, like skin, muscles and other organs, decompose. Minerals from the soil make their way into the bone, turning it to stone. Fossilization doesn't happen very often, so there are gaps in the fo...
In our evolutionary history, access to clean water was crucial for survival, so an attraction to the smell of rain could have been advantageous. Rain is also often associated with positive experiences and emotions, such as relief from hot weather, the nourishment of crops and the soothing sound...
"It could be random chance, but it could have brought a big evolutionary advantage," said Miriam Konkel. She is an evolutionary geneticist at Clemson University, who was not involved in the study. As to why having no tails...
How to make a family tree After you’ve got your bare bones research done, it’s time to start diagramming. A smart thing to do when starting your diagram is to create a key. In the example below, we’ve established a few general guidelines. First, males have icons with sharp lines...
As vascular plants evolved, they developed several important evolutionary advances. Explain the importance of each of the following: \\ a. vascular tissue \\ b. seeds \\ c. flowers \\ d. fruits What is the process through which plants make their food? Give a thorough explana...
She is an evolutionary geneticist at Clemson University, who was not involved in the study. “这可能是随机的机会,但它可能带来巨大的进化优势,”米里亚姆·康克尔说。她是克莱姆森大学的进化遗传学家,没有参与这项研究。 As to why having no tails may have helped our ancestors, there are many ...
