The study provides the first evidence that turtles use vocalizations to synchronize group activities and rear their young, the group says.
Daquin et al. (2001) suggest that yawning is a form of communication used to synchronize group behavior.
In particular, research suggests that three aspects of music its emotional resonance, its lyrical content, and its unique way of synchronizing groups of people may have the power to invoke good deeds.
Inspired by the propagation of synfire waves through cortical layers [10], such systems can be regarded as basic phase variable models of feed-forward networks featuring synchronized groups, in which each pool can be treated as a phase oscillator that repetitively alternates a refractory period with a firing burst.
When the spacing between adjacent groups drops below a critical value, the entire segment of the chain undergoes a rearrangement, resulting in one fewer synchronized groups.
The adjacency matrix also allowed us to establish the interplay between the synchronized groups and the topological structure of the network.
As the frequency of the external force increases, synchronized groups whose oscillation occurs at frequencies between that of the forcing and that at the chain's high-frequency end are compressed in frequency.
Direct cell-cell communication synchronizes groups of cells to execute coordinated programs required for growth, differentiation, and therapeutic response (Naus and Laird, 2010).
There's also a Pro version in the works which will enable synchronized group play, song sharing and professional sequencing capabilities.
After each rearrangement, the remaining synchronized groups recur at the same locations, providing further evidence that the size of a stably synchronized group is tightly bounded both above and below.
