Evolutionary mechanismsProcessesHierarchiesExtended SynthesisApplied Evolutionary EpistemologyPhilosophy of biologyModern evolutionary biology is currently characterized by epistemological divergence because, beyond organisms and genes, scholars nowadays investigate a plurality of units of evolution, they recognize multi...
What are three different evolutionary processes that contribute to the growing number of antibiotic resistant bacterial species? Antibiotic Resistance: Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria become resistant to the drugs that are supposed to kill them. Doctors...
While living here for the past four months has been a big adjustment, there are many benefits to living off the grid (电线). I think one of the most educational lessons is teaching my kids the importance of conserv...
Evolutionary biology is the subfield of biology that studiesthe evolutionary processes (natural selection, common descent, speciation) that produced the diversity of life on Earth. Simply, it is also defined as the study of the history of life forms on Earth. What is evolutionary biology class 12...
What evolutionary process or processes tend to decrease the variation between separate populations?Variation:The difference in organisms, individual cells, or a group of cells brought by environmental factors during potential genetic expression or genetic differences is called ...
Evolutionary algorithms.EA algorithms are modeled on natural selection and Darwinian evolution. In relation to ASI, an EA approach would involve generating a multitude of AI systems and selecting the best-performing models to continue with the next generation. These systems would improve their capabilit...
Also, there has been an increased recognition that the problem of scale at which ecological processes should be considered is critical if we are to produce general predictions. Ecological dynamics is always stochastic at small scales, but variability is conditional on the scale of description. The ...
As part of the program, 75 children between the ages 5-10 will be given the task to design their own future human race. "It's really interesting for kids, so they can get a sense of who they are and where they belong and how they have become to look they way they are," Westaway...
We do not claim that content does not matter when people reason, but we disagree that adequate reasons have been provided--either theoretical or empirical--to think that content-general procedures are not among the basic reasoning processes. First, we describe the bioevolutionary...
the process of natural selection enables individuals with the most suitable characteristics in a species not only to survive, but also to transmit those characteristics to their offspring, producing evolutionary changes in the species over time as less suitable traits disappear and more suitable traits...
