Genome demonstrates that British swallowtail butterfly is genetically isolated, distinct from other European machaon populations, at least 200,000 years ago. Genomic distinctiveness, morphology, ecological specificity justify special conservation efforts https://t.co/PvW64DGchL #conservation #butterflies #genomics #GB #EU
La fintech française Morpho a levé 175 millions de dollars pour développer des protocoles de prêts et d'emprunt sur la blockchain, devenant ainsi la deuxième plus grosse opération dans le secteur de la finance décentralisée (DeFi) après Wormhole. #Morpho #FinanceDécentralisée #Crypto
Nothing (Original: Which are the most common everyday phenomena that we don't properly understand? Off the top of my head: • Lightning (how does it happen?) • Sleep; dreams (why do they exist?) • Glass (thermodynamics of formation) • Turbulence (when does it start?) • Morphogenesis (how does) #EverydayMysteries #ScienceCuriosities #NaturalPhenomena #Thearticledoesnotreferenceanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
A new study published in PNAS suggests that the morphological differences between Neanderthal brains and those of modern humans are smaller than the variations observed among contemporary human populations, challenging the notion of significant cognitive inferiority in Neanderthals and indicating that their extinction may not have been due to brain structure but rather demographic or environmental factors. #Neanderthals #CognitiveScience #HumanEvolution #N/A
