produce many eggs and their offspring survive better when population density is low. Yellow-throated females producelarge eggs and their offspring survive better when population density is high. This results in a two-year shifting cycle of relative abundance, basically anevolutionarily stable strategy(...
Stem cells in tissues, organoids, and cancers.aDifferentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). HSCs are composed of long-term and short-term self-renewing stem cells and multipotent progenitors. The multipotent progenitors give rise to common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs) and common myeloid progeni...

The endothelial cells (ECs) of different vascular territories possess distinct molecular and function identities [1,2,3,4]. The cerebral ECs are of particular clinical relevance due to their roles in human diseases including stroke, cerebrovascular malformations and vascular dementia [5,6]. In addit...
amphibians: a common, freshwater taxon with a complex life cycle. We conducted a meta-analysis to define how the lethality of saltwater exposure changes across multiple life stages, surveyed wetlands in a coastal region experiencing progressive salinization for the presence of anurans, and used ...
"Toads and Toad Life" gives a full account of the animal in relation to its environment; every phase of its normal life cycle is considered and its reactions are analysed and compared with those of other amphibians. But although there is much of scientific interest in the book, the manner ...
In addition, winding hallways with dioramas showcase 300 fish, amphibians, and insects from the state’s marshes, prairies, and woodlands. PRO TIP:Pack hiking shoes. If weather permits, take a nature walk along the Tallgrass Trail, a scenic 1.5-mile loop with views of a pond and natural ...
(LC50), but as they are obligatory parasites, for practical purposes nonviable glochidia should be considered "dead," 13 Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (2022) 82:239–254 243 because they would be unable to attach to a host and com- plete their life cycle. Water...
After reading the abstract, we retained relevant articles, books, and dissertations that dealt with the survival and the reproductive cycle of wild populations or from lab experiments of the target group. We extracted infor- mation pertaining to geographic distribution, breeding season length, ...
post-combustion CO2 capture; life cycle assessment; membrane contactor; environmental impact; absorption; stripping1. Introduction There is no doubt that one of the vital threats facing the world in the last decades is global warming, based on the increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases,...
