But in the pupils' textbooks, "adaptation" is equaled to the acquirement of characteristic features by organisms, and it implied that adaptation is a process realized by every animal so that it survives in its habitat.
Curricula Teachers' textbooks Pupils' textbooks Second "Adaptation of the animals to the environment" "…A synopsis of the animals' basic needs is given… and the new concept of adaptation to the environment is introduced" "Animals adapt to the environment.
The loss in PLR, coupled with normal ERG in DT-treated Opn4Cre/+ R26iDTR/+ mice implies a necessary role of mRGCs in dynamic adaptation of pupil size to ambient light.
It has been shown that differences in luminance [ 20], contrast [ 21], pupil size [ 22], adaptation states [ 23, 24], and even less than full correction of refractive error [ 25, 26] can all cause alterations in the mfERG.
Minimum requirements are a pupil size after dark adaptation of at least 4 mm and two 45-degree photographs taken of each eye, a total of four photographs for retinopathy grading (centered on optic disc and on macula).
I've seen passionate teachers keen to explore evolutionary topics such as human ancestry and adaptation with their pupils; display boards covered in faux diary entries written by intrepid young pupils pretending to be Darwin; excited young people with lots of questions; fossils, family trees and finches.
Imaging was performed using the rtx1 AOC device through undilated pupils, following 5 min of dark adaptation.
As the variance of stimulation increased with mean intensity, a simple adaptation mechanism, such as intracellular pupil is insufficient to bring LMCs back to their coding range.
Pupils will start with simple concepts of change, adaptation and natural selection illustrated by the evolution of fish to amphibians to mammals, for example.
Does education prepare pupils to good self-awareness, social responsibility, and adaptation to technology?
