[ad_1] The first wings on Earth may have evolved from the sunken legs of an ancient flightless crustacean. Today, modern crabs, lobsters, shrimp and shrimp are sometimes called sea bugs, and as part of the arthropod family, which is characterized by strong armor and segmented joints, the name makes sense. …

[ad_1] This new tool, called PredictEst, is based on the data provided daily by Public Health France and on the “Epidemiological modeling”. It must make it possible to provide an image of the epidemic from maps and graphs “At 30 days” in order to “To avoid, as far as possible, …

[ad_1] University of Gothenburg Bird species that have lost the ability to fly through evolution have become extinct more often than birds that have retained their ability to fly, according to new research from the University of Gothenburg. Today we know that human influence on the environment has caused the …

The international study, led by Professor John Paterson of the University …

[ad_1] An inexpensive FDA-approved drug, cholestyramine, taken in combination with an antibiotic prevents the antibiotic from driving antimicrobial resistance, according to new research by scientists at Penn State and the University of Michigan. The team’s findings appear today (December 1) in the journal eLife. “Antimicrobial resistance is a serious problem …

[ad_1] WOODS HOLE, Mass. – Sounds like “Just So Story” – “How the Insect Got its Wings” – but it’s truly a mystery that has puzzled biologists for over a century. Intriguing and conflicting theories about the evolution of insect wings have emerged in recent years, but none have been …

[ad_1] In a groundbreaking new study, scientists used innovative molecular techniques to explain how corals on Australia’s east coast survived previous harsh conditions, allowing the Great Barrier Reef to become the vast coral reef it is today. We sequenced the genomes of 150 individual colonies of the same coral species …

[ad_1] If you needed repairs done 50,000 years ago, you’d be better off with a Neanderthal team than Homo sapiens, a new study has shown.
