Speculations About the Selective Basis for Modern Human Craniofacial Form

The last few decades have seen an explosion of knowledge about the time and place of origin of our species, Homo sapiens. New fossils, more sites, better dates, modern and fossil DNA, and scores of analyses have mostly disproved the multiregional model of human evolution. By and large, the evidence generally supports some version of the out-of-Africa model, according to which humans first evolv...

Geometric morphometric study of the regional variation of modern human craniofacial form.

The regional variability of the modern human craniofacial form is of importance to debates about human origins. The study of craniofacial form has generally been carried out either by interlandmark distance measurement and analysis or by observation and character scoring. In this study of four modern human groups (Eskimo/Inuit, African, Australian, and Romano-British), nine craniofacial landmar...

با توجه به اینکه بیمه محصولات کشاورزی در ایران بیشتر جنبه ای حمایتی دارد و خسارات گزارش شده عموما بیش از حق بیمه های دریافت شده است، در این پایان نامه به جهت تعیین قیمت بیمه محصولات کشاورزی (گندم دیم) از فرآیندهای نوفه شلیک به عنوان مدلی مناسب استفاده شده است. بر اساس داده های صندوق بیمه کشاورزی از خسارات اعلام شده در سال زراعی 1388-1389 گندم دیم، در این پایان نامه حق بیمه خالص و ناخالص این محص...

The embryological basis of craniofacial dysplasias.

Craniofacial dysplasia of a syndromic pattern can usually be classified into one of two easily identifiable groups. In the first group are those malformations of the craniofacial skeleton and soft tissues that are asymmetrical in form and in the other, those that are principally symmetrical. Clinical studies have demonstrated that affected subjects in the symmetrical group frequently improve in...
