Medicine & TechnologyAccording to a million-year data collected by biologists, the evolution might be occurring four times faster than previous estimates. Read more about the new theory and how it relates to the natural selection and genetics of various wild animal groups.
According to experts, the qualities of a person's romantic partner can predict their interest in their opposite-sex friend. Read on to find out the factors that support the mating activation hypothesis.
The evolutionary solution of limblessness in snakes seems to be a hit to their species. Continue reading to learn about animals that lost their legs and started crawling.
Boa constrictors choke their prey before swallowing them. Find out here the trick snakes use to prevent themselves from suffocating while swallowing their prey.
When Charles Darwin initially codified the theory of evolution by means of natural selection, he thought of the evolutionary change in flowers and plants as "gradual." He said they see nothing of these slow changes in progress.
Researchers discovered ancient supermountains that towered as high as the Himalayas and stretched thousands of miles could have fueled two of the biggest evolutionary events in Earth's history.
More than two million years have passed since the first-ever emergence of humans and scientists have believed that our face has remained to transform and it will keep on transforming.
Researchers published evidence that disproves the prominent "meat made humans" hypothesis that propulgates how dietary shifts towards meat eating heavily influenced human evolution.
The crater detection algorithm "automatically counts the visible impact craters" from a high-resolution image, a planetary research team from the United States, Australia, France, and Côte d'Ivoire has analyzed the formation of over 500 massive impact craters on Mars.
Scientists found that the brain pays more attention to unfamiliar voices during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, indicating that it can learn even while asleep although it could do more harm than help because it should be at rest.
A new study observed a non-random mutation pattern in genes of a roadside weed known as the thale cress. The findings gave insights to how mutations work in the evolution of organisms, including humans.
Paleontologists suggest that most ankylosaurs are deaf and sluggish. The theory was based from fossil records of the dinosaur's braincase which was unearthed in Austria.
