Examples of LGT in insects have been found to be involved in the aspects of detoxification, protection, and metabolism42,43,44. LGTs were also documented in parasitic microbial eukaryotes45,46,47. As one of a handful of examples in parasitic insects, an LGT of Glycoside hydrolase family 19 ...
Paradoxically, despite these negative consequences, CIN is one of the hallmarks of cancer found in over 90% of solid tumors and in blood cancers. Furthermore, CIN could endow tumors with enhanced adaptation capabilities due to increased intratumor heterogeneity, thereby facilitating adaptive resistance ...
Examples of this was OTU_8, Gemmobacter. This OTU was highly abundant in bRAS and had very low abundance in sRAS. In bRAS OTU_8 decreased in relative abundance from 33% at Day −60 to 4% at Day 1 and then increased to 14% by Day 13 at 12‰ salinity. After 12‰ salinity, it ...
Describe two adaptations of the xylem vessel elements to their functions. Describe and compare digestion in a gastrovascular cavity and in the vertebrate digestive system. What features make the vertebrate system more efficient? Describe two examples of vestigial structures that are found among the Cam...
The chapters build intuitively upon each other. Skabelund advances quickly from the theoretical opening to concrete examples, beginning with the parallel trajectories of Western dogs, who had accompanied Europeans on the Japanese archipelago in the 19th century, and their uneasy cohabitation with the na...
of the best examples we have of natural selection," said Dr. Fraser. "If you see the same trait being selected again and again, it has to be adaptive. But on the flipside, it also tells us about the limitations of evolution. Why aren't all sorts of adaptations and phenotypes possible...
117 I delve into this topic, offering some examples of Ottoman utopianism, in Sariyannis (in press). A Tale of Two Cities: Jābarṣā/Jābalqā and Their Metamorphoses 187Âlî, Gelibolulu Mustafa (2020), Künhü’l-ahbâr. 1. Rükün (tenkitli metin), edited by Suat Donuk and...
Give two examples. What advantages are associated with segmented bodies and appendages? Explain your answer. A) Explain how bilateral symmetry contributed to motion and cephalization (the evolution of a head and brain)? B) Explain the common adaptations for reproduction seen in both: organisms with...
Also, the introduction of immature or mature bonobos to an unfamiliar group in zoos and sanctuaries usually proceeds relatively smoothly compared to that of chimpanzees60,61. The cases of cross-group adoptions presented here are additional examples of high social tolerance among bonobos, both towards...
Examples of species that form cilia both with and without a central pair for different functions are known in the chromalveolata (Dileptus21), excavata (Leishmania22) and holozoa (with many examples, particularly in metazoa including humans and Drosophila1). In humans, defects in either sensory...
