Science is what we do when we want to understand how things in the universe work. It is a process of discovering facts and developing theories about how things work and interact with each other. Science is not just limited to the physical world, but also includes the study of human behavior and social interactions. We use scientific methods to study everything from the behavior of animals to the effects of various drugs on people. By using the scientific method, we are constantly learning new things about the world around us. Science is important because it allows us to understand our surroundings and make informed decisions about our lives. It helps us to find solutions to problems and make predictions about future events. Without science, we would be living in complete darkness, unaware of the incredible complexities of the universe around us.
Unravelling the microbial world in European soils | Nature Portfolio Ecology & Evolution Community
Soil biodiversity assessments are necessary for its better protection and monitoring. Here, we present the first Europe-wide assessment and show that a higher microbial diversity can also mean more potential pathogens. We propose guidelines for environmental policy actions.
Lingering effects of Neanderthal DNA found in modern humans -- ScienceDaily
Recent scientific discoveries have shown that Neanderthal genes comprise some 1 to 4% of the genome of present-day humans whose ancestors migrated out of Africa, but the question remained open on how much those genes are still actively influencing human traits -- until now.
“Starrii” blessed us twice | Nature Portfolio Ecology & Evolution Community
Two major discoveries were made in a green alga, Pleodorina starrii. For the first time, a male-specific gene was identified within the volvocine algae. The stable coexistence of male, female, and bisexual types in one species was suggested, implying that more than two sex types may be peaceful.
Predicate Logic and Popular Culture (Part 266): The Beach Boys – Mean Green Math
Let $latex P$ be the set of all people, let $latex W$ be the set of all places, let $latex K(x,y)$ be the statement "$latex x$ knows $latex y$," and let $latex L(y)$ be the statement "$latex y$ is a little place like Kokomo." Translate the logical statement $latex \forall x \in P \exists y…
Remains of an extinct world of organisms discovered: Until now, certain biomarkers, the 'protosteroids,' have been overlooked as fossil witnesses to primordial life -- ScienceDaily
Newly discovered biomarker signatures point to a whole range of previously unknown organisms that dominated complex life on Earth about a billion years ago. They differed from complex eukaryotic life as we know it, such as animals, plants and algae in their cell structure and likely metabolism, which was adapted to a world that had far less oxygen in the atmosphere than today.
