Paine (1966) had observed that the diversity of organisms in rocky intertidal ecosystems declined as the number of predators in those ecosystems decreased. He hypothesized that some of these consumers might be playing a greater role than others in controlling the numbers of species coexisting in the...
The principal aim of life history theory, a branch of evolutionary ecology, is to explain the remarkable diversity in life histories among species. But there is another, more compelling reason for why life history evolution is important: adaptation by natural selection is based on variation in Dar...
The greatest diversity of form and biomass of cephalopods is oceanic and mesopelagic in distribution, but the biology of these offshore species is little understood and generalizations are based mostly on coastal forms. Now, and throughout their evolutionary his- tory, representatives of the ...
There's now an increasing set of inter- faces, and a diversity of interfaces, between the ethics community and emerging domains like synthetic biology. So, however this unfolds, Asilomar is not going to work; the bioethi- cists are not going to go into the next room and think about ...

We study different aspects of living organisms, ecosystems, and the environment. I find biology to be quite fascinating and enjoy learning about the diversity of life on Earth. 11:30 am - 1:00 pm: Physics After a short break, I have physics class. We learn about different physical ...
Cells sense their environment via membrane receptors (for specific signals such as hormones) and adhesion molecules (for immediate surroundings including extracellular matrix components). This review covers the range of signals that adhesion molecules li
In this article readers are introduced to the many facets of soils - their unique characteristics and diversity, the ecosystem services that soils provide, and their use and misuse.
