Introduction to the evolutionary study of human diversity.
Sociobiology, the evolutionary study of social behaviour, is perhaps the most active subfield of ethology.
"Baboon Metaphysics," which took second place in this year's contest, is actually a fascinating philosophical and evolutionary study, which more than one person on The New Yorker staff has read with interest.
The fact they also may have their Ancestor, some kind of ur-Moomin, living in a tiled stove in the bathing house, makes the evolutionary study of Moomins even more complex.
With the fall of Ernst Haeckel's Biogenetic Law in the 1920s, the evolutionary study of embryos receded into the intellectual backwaters for decades.
Green algae are also important in the evolutionary study of plants; the single-celled Chlamydomonas is considered similar to the ancestral form that probably gave rise to land plants.
According to the most extensive evolutionary study of the cystatin superfamily15, a duplication of ancestral cystatin gene led to the formation of two independent lineages (ancestral stefins and type II cystatins).
Exploring common features and universal qualities shared by a particular class of networks in biological and other domains is one of the important aspects of evolutionary study.
I suggest that, as the reigning paradigm in evolutionary psychology has produced questionable results, the evolutionary study of human psychology is still in need of a guiding paradigm.
He explained that whereas classicists have traditionally been assumed to be the scholars most able to branch into any area of research, today – with advances in evolutionary study – it will be those with scholarship in evolutionary science who will supersede classicists in depth, breadth and usefulness.
Evolutionary study is also underlies the current huge concern about the preservation of biodiversity.
