Ant-lions are pit-building larvae (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae), which possess relatively large mandibles used for catching and consuming prey. Few studies involving terrestrial arthropod larva have investigated prey capture behavior and kinematics and no study has shown modulation of strike kinematics. We examined feeding kinematics of the ant-lion, Myrmeleon crudelis, using high-speed video to...

we live in a world,that is based on these conflicts! this is contrary to the broad meaning of the rituals of ancient persia, even though in zoroastrianism this conflict(spenta mino and ankrah mino) have established the creations .lion and bull dispute, one of the oldest iranian art motifs are used. the authors choose the baisonghor’s kalila wa dimna and the scene at persepolis:killing the bull ...

Proteins are complex organic compounds made up of smaller units called amino acids that bonded together in long chains. Protein interacts with other proteins or molecules and becomes essential the structure, function, regulation organisms' cells. The Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) results a considerably large network. Consequently, there is need to find method simplify network for easy inter...

As one of the most crucial scenarios Internet Things (IoT), wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) pay more attention to information-intensive data (e.g., audio, video, image) for remote environments. The area coverage reflects perception WMSNs surrounding environment, where a good effect can ensure effective collection. Given harsh and complex physical environment WMSNs, which easily form...

Analysis of skulls and mandibles of the fossil Beringian lion demonstrate that the small lion that inhabited Yakutia (Russia), Alaska (USA), and the Yukon Territory (Canada) is a new subspecies described here as Pu~ltl lcra spelncu z~erc.sl7c-llugirri n. subsp. It differs from the European cave lion P. spelacu (terra typica: Gailenreutl~ Cave, Germany, Late Pleistocene) by its smaller size and ...

The CCHP system is a reasonable and effective method to improve the current situation of energy use. Capacity allocation great significance in improving performance system. Due particularity chemical enterprises’ production process, demand for cooling, heating, power load also relatively particular, which makes dynamic loads challenging be satisfied. Because above problems, structure typical im...

The African lion has declined to <35,000 individuals occupying 25% of its historic range. The situation is most critical for the geographically isolated populations in West Africa, where the species is considered regionally endangered. Elevating their conservation significance, recent molecular studies establish the genetic distinctiveness of West and Central African lions from other extant Afr...
