متن کاملSexual and Natural Selection Both Influence Male Genital Evolution
Rapid and divergent evolution of male genital morphology is a conspicuous and general pattern across internally fertilizing animals. Rapid genital evolution is thought to be the result of sexual selection, and the role of natural selection in genital evolution remains controversial. However, natural and sexual selection are believed to act antagonistically on male genital form. We conducted an ...
متن کاملThe Construction of Transcription Factor Networks Through Natural Selection
Transcription regulation plays a key role in determining cellular function, response to external stimuli and development. Regulatory proteins orchestrate gene expression through thousands of interactions resulting in large, complex networks. Understanding the principles on which these networks are constructed can provide insight into the way the expression patterns of different genes co-evolve....
متن کاملNatural selection
The time-scale of evolution Think of the 3.5 billion years that makes the history of life on earth as stretching for a single year. On the first of January, there is nothing more than primitive bacteria, and this remains the case for the next eight months. Multicellular eukaryotic life appears in early September, vertebrates invade the land at the beginning of December and dinosaurs become exti...
متن کاملNatural Language and Natural Selection
Many people have argued that the evolution of the human language faculty cannot be explained by Darwinian natural selection. Chomsky and Gould have suggested that language may have evolved as the by-product of selection for other abilities or as a consequence of as-yet unknown laws of growth and form. Others have argued that a biological specialization for grammar is incompatible with every ten...
