Book excerpt: "If you are interested in transvestite garter snakes, the speed-eating habits of the star-nosed mole, or how geckos behave in zero gravity, you will enjoy Fish That Fake Orgasms." ---The Times (UK) Packed with fascinating, bizarre, amazing, and hilarious entries, Fish That Fake Orgasms takes you on a guided tour of the diverse natural life that surrounds us. It covers eating and drinking, playing and preying, carousing and canoodling---and much more: • Why do some Japanese quail prefer to mate with weaker males of the species? • What animal has a heart that glows green when it beats? • Of all the carnivores, which has the strongest bite? • What creature performs better sexually when there's another male nearby? • What type of bird has a divorce rate of only 8 percent? • Which has a bigger brain: a lion in the wild or a lion in captivity? • What animal pretends it has food in order to lure females into its abode? Fish That Fake Orgasms is the first professionally researched miscellany of the animal kingdom. An entertaining and addictive collection, it will satisfy anyone entranced by the wondrous world of animals. And speaking of satisfaction, the female brown trout does, in fact, fake it. It's a trick it uses to find the most potent mate!

Download or read book American Tropics written by Megan Raby and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodiversity has been a key concept in international conservation since the 1980s, yet historians have paid little attention to its origins. Uncovering its roots in tropical fieldwork and the southward expansion of U.S. empire at the turn of the twentieth century, Megan Raby details how ecologists took advantage of growing U.S. landholdings in the circum-Caribbean by establishing permanent field stations for long-term, basic tropical research. From these outposts of U.S. science, a growing community of American "tropical biologists" developed both the key scientific concepts and the values embedded in the modern discourse of biodiversity. Considering U.S. biological fieldwork from the era of the Spanish-American War through the anticolonial movements of the 1960s and 1970s, this study combines the history of science, environmental history, and the history of U.S.–Caribbean and Latin American relations. In doing so, Raby sheds new light on the origins of contemporary scientific and environmentalist thought and brings to the forefront a surprisingly neglected history of twentieth-century U.S. science and empire.

Download or read book The Importance of Biological Interactions in the Study of Biodiversity written by Jordi López-Pujol and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term biodiversity defines not only all the variety of life in the Earth but also their complex interactions. Under the current scenario of biodiversity loss, and in order to preserve it, it is essential to achieve a deep understanding on all the aspects related to the biological interactions, including their functioning and significance. This volume contains several contributions (nineteen in total) that illustrate the state of the art of the academic research in the field of biological interactions in its widest sense; that is, not only the interactions between living organisms are considered, but also those between living organisms and abiotic elements of the environment as well as those between living organisms and the humans.

Download or read book DNA Engineered Noble Metal Nanoparticles written by Ignác Capek and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-23 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing interest in the use of nanoparticles modifiedwith DNAs, viruses, peptides and proteins for the rational designof nanostructured functional materials and their use in biosensorapplications. The challenge is to control the organization ofbiomolecules on nanoparticles while retaining their biologicalactivity as potential chemical and gene therapeutics. Thesenoble metal nanoparticles/biomolecules conjugates have specificproperties and therefore they are attractive materials fornanotechnology in biochemistry and medicine. In this book, the author review work performed dealing with theDNA structure and functionalities, interactions between DNA, noblemetal nanoparticles, surface active agents, solvents and otheradditives. Particular attention is given to how the DNA’schain length and the DNA conformation affect the interaction andstructure of the nanoconjugates and nanostructures that are formed.Also discussed are the recent advances in the preparation,characterization, and applications of noble metal nanoparticlesthat are conjugated with DNA aptamers and oligomers. The advantagesand disadvantages of functionalized nanoparticles through variousdetection modes are highlighted, including colorimetry,fluorescence, electrochemistry, SPR, and, mass spectrometry for thedetection of small molecules and biomolecules. The functionalizednoble metal nanoparticles are selective and sensitive for theanalytes, showing their great potential in biosensing. Furthermore,this book reviews recent progress in the area of DNA-noble metalnanoparticles based artificial nanostructures, that is, thepreparation, collective properties, and applications of variousDNA-based nanostructures are also described.

Download or read book Extinct Birds written by Julian P. Hume and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-24 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extinct Birds was the first comprehensive review of the hundreds of the bird species and subspecies that have become extinct over the last 1,000 years of habitat degradation, over-hunting and rat introduction. It has become the standard text on this subject, covering both familiar icons of extinction as well as more obscure birds, some known from just one specimen or from travellers' tales. This second edition is expanded to include dozens of new species, as more are constantly added to the list, either through extinction or through new subfossil discoveries. Extinct Birds is the result of decades of research into literature and museum drawers, as well as caves and subfossil deposits, which often reveal birds long-gone that disappeared without ever being recorded by scientists while they lived. From Greak Auks, Carolina Parakeets and Dodos to the amazing yet almost completely vanished bird radiations of Hawaii and New Zealand via rafts of extinction in the Pacific and elsewhere, this book is both a sumptuous reference and astounding testament to humanity's devastating impact on wildlife.
