Genetics has shown us that replication rates are much higher than mutation rates, allowing us to see the conservative nature of the organism on a generation-to-generation basis, that is, in real time.
As Evgeny Morozov points out, reviewing Kelly's book in 2011, 'The moment one adopts the view of technology as a "super-organism," it is impossible not to arrive at the deeply conservative prescription that this super-organism should better be left alone and not tinkered with'.
Humans are group-oriented and moralistic organisms and, as conservative and religious moral systems tend to oppose promiscuity, it is not surprising that members of these groups will also tend to oppose it.
Based on the phylogenetic analysis, the TFs exist extensively in all organisms are more conservative than those exclusively exist in plant and the paper mulberry has the closest relationship with the mulberry.
In the current study we chose to be conservative and included only those prokaryotic organisms that have a full transcriptome sequence available on GenBank, which limits us to 1,976 organisms.
The conservative nature of inheritance suggests that organisms cannot change as rapidly as the environment, so they will always "lag behind" environmental changes.
Because feeding is likely to decline in the winter, we suspect that our estimates are conservative for the many of the organisms included in this study.
As our dataset comprises relatively closely related organisms we chose a conservative parameter value of 50% sequence identity for the clustering.
Because of long conservative treatment of SD, no causative organism could be isolated in many patients previously confirmed to have this disease.
In a nutshell, the conservative, replicative nature of living things ensures that organisms will be more similar than they are different.
