Eocene ungulates were very selective in their feeding
A study by the UPV/EHU-University of the Basque Country into the paleodiet of extinct paleotheriidae (or pseudo horses) provides information about their feeding strategy and the environment they inhabited at the end of the Eocene. Plagiolophus was a.....»»
Republicans and Democrats see news bias only in stories that clearly favor the other party
Charges of media bias—that "the media" are trying to brainwash Americans by feeding the public only one side of every issue—have become as common as campaign ads in the run-up to the midterm elections......»»

Corn plants with tillers work well in restrictive environments
Undeniably, corn is one of the world's most important crops. From feeding humans and livestock, to its many industrial uses, humans have been growing it for approximately 10,000 years......»»
Study shows shaker channel mutation differs structurally from human potassium channels
Potassium (K+) channels are small, highly specialized conduits within every living cell that are responsible for the extremely selective and rapid transport of K+ ions across cell membranes. Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels are potassium-specifi.....»»
Small eddies play a big role in feeding ocean microbes
Subtropical gyres are enormous rotating ocean currents that generate sustained circulations in the Earth's subtropical regions just to the north and south of the equator. These gyres are slow-moving whirlpools that circulate within massive basins aro.....»»
