Monozygotic twins: Ten reasons to be different
MZ twins, though arising primarily from a single zygote and considered genetically identical, will not ever be absolutely the same. Post-fertilization events such as chromosomal mosaicism, skewed X-inactivation and imprinting mechanisms, as well as other epigenetic mechanisms are responsible for the putative differences between MZ twins.

متن کاملHow Do Sinking Phytoplankton Species Manage to Persist? How Do Sinking Phytoplankton Species Manage to Persist?
Phytoplankton requires light for photosynthesis, but most phytoplankton species are heavier than water and sink. How can these sinking species persist? Here we show, by means of an advection-di usion-reaction equation of light-limited phytoplankton, that the answer lies in the turbulent motion of water that re-disperses phytoplankton over the vertical water column. More speci cally, we show tha...

Delusions are bizarre and distressing beliefs that characterize certain mental illnesses. They arise without clear reasons and are remarkably persistent. Recent models of delusions, drawing on a neuroscientific understanding of learning, focus on how delusions might emerge from abnormal experience. We believe that these models can be extended to help us understand why delusions persist. We cons...
