He maintains that only fanciful guessing and aggrandizing prejudice could support any scenarios that would describe, for instance, the evolution of limbs in creatures venturing from the sea or the rise of Homo sapiens from hominid progenitors.
For instance, the evolution of a population of cells may be modeled by an agent-based model, where each agent has a boolean network for internal representation of its gene expression.
The aim of the in-fracture reactive percolation tests under an imposed normal stress and temperature is to characterise the evolution of the fracture's hydraulic and hydromechanical behaviour with, in the first instance, the evolution of its permeability induced by the fluid/rock interactions resulting from the injection of an imposed chemical fluid.
In rodents for instance, the evolution of alarm calls was likely selfish despite evidence of altruism in some species [ 12].
For instance, the evolution of RNA viruses, such as HIV, could be strongly constrained by the size of their genome (Holmes 2003).
For instance, the evolution of galling is believed to be favoured in harsh xeric environments [ 83] that became particularly pronounced in Australia during the Quaternary.
For instance, the evolution of the neocortex in humans has allowed us to experience our environment through subjective mental states such as pain, smell, hearing and vision.
For instance, the evolution of the flagella requires a certain condition of the membrane, you said, before proposing a congruent scenario that would explain how these two features evolved.
For instance, the evolution of salinity tolerance and cold tolerance in exotic copepods (Eurytemora affinis) in North America and Rhododendron in the British Isles, respectively, seems to be related to range expansion (Milne and Abbott 2000; Lee et al. 2003).
One instance, the evolution of antifreeze glycoproteins from trypsinogen-like proteases in Antarctic notothenioid fish [ 69], demonstrates how gene duplication can be followed by fundamental remodelling of primary structures, involving the loss of functional domains and very low sequence identities, of the magnitude recorded in T. brucei.
