How does variation in the environment and individual cognition explain the existence of consistent behavioral differences?
According to recent studies on animal personalities, the level of behavioral plasticity, which can be viewed as the slope of the behavioral reaction norm, varies among individuals, populations, and species. Still, it is conceptually unclear how the interaction between environmental variation and variation in animal cognition affect the evolution of behavioral plasticity and expression of animal...
متن کاملDo mitochondrial properties explain intraspecific variation in thermal tolerance?
As global temperatures rise, there is a growing need to understand the physiological mechanisms that determine an organism's thermal niche. Here, we test the hypothesis that increases in mitochondrial capacity with cold acclimation and adaptation are associated with decreases in thermal tolerance using two subspecies of killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) that differ in thermal niche. We assessed...
متن کاملMitochondrial Dysfunction may explain symptom variation in Phelan-McDermid Syndrome
Phelan-McDermid Syndrome (PMS), which is defined by a deletion within 22q13, demonstrates significant phenotypic variation. Given that six mitochondrial genes are located within 22q13, including complex I and IV genes, we hypothesize that mitochondrial complex activity abnormalities may explain phenotypic variation in PMS symptoms. Complex I, II, II + III and IV activity was measured in 51 PMS ...
متن کاملIndividual Differences : Variation By Design
Anthony J. Greene & William B Levy University of Virginia Correspondence: Anthony Greene University of Virginia Department of Neurosurgery, HSC Box 420 Charlottesville, VA 22908 [email protected] www.people.virginia.edu/~ajg3x 804.924.0356 Abstract: Stanovich & West appear to overlook the adaptivity of variation. Behavioral variability, both between and within individuals, is an absolute neces...
متن کاملIT Assets, Organizational Capabilities, and Firm Performance: How Resource Allocations and Organizational Differences Explain Performance Variation
Despite evidence of a positive relationship between information technology (IT) investments and firm performance, results still vary across firms and performance measures. We explore two organizational explanations for this variation: differences in firms’ IT investment allocations and their IT capabilities. We develop a theoretical model of IT resources, defined as the combination of specific ...
