    Buzzle – Zoology Terms – Glossary of Biology Terms and Definitions http://www.buzzle.com/articles/biology-terms-glossary-of-biology-terms-and- definitions.html#ZoologyGlossary Biology is the branch of science concerned with the study of life: structure, growth, functioning and evolution of living things. This discipline of science comprises three sub-disciplines that are botany (study of plants), Zoology (study of animals) and Microbiology (study of microorganisms). This vast subject of science involves the usage of myriads of biology terms, which are essential to be comprehended correctly. People involved in the science field encounter innumerable jargons during their study, research or work. Moreover, since science is a part of everybody's life, it is something that is important to all individuals. A Abdomen: Abdomen in mammals is the portion of the body which is located below the rib cage, and in arthropods below the thorax. It is the cavity that contains stomach, intestines, etc. Abscission: Abscission is a process of shedding or separating part of an organism from the rest of it. Common examples are that of, plant parts like leaves, fruits, flowers and bark being separated from the plant. Accidental: Accidental refers to the occurrences or existence of all those species that would not be found in a particular region under normal circumstances. Acclimation: Acclimation refers to the morphological and/or physiological changes experienced by various organisms to adapt or accustom themselves to a new climate or environment. Active Transport: The movement of cellular substances like ions or molecules by traveling across the membrane, towards a higher level of concentration while consuming energy.

To make unresolved trees more informative, here we propose an 44, 10095, Grugliasco (TO), Italy innovative Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) method to search the best graphical Full list of author information is available at the end of the article representation of unresolved trees, in order to give a biological meaning to the vertical order of taxa. Methods: Starting from a West Nile virus phylogenetic tree, in a (1 + 1)-EA we evolved it by randomly rotating the internal nodes and selecting the tree with better fitness every generation. The fitness is a sum of genetic distances between the considered taxon and the r (radius) next taxa. After having set the radius to the best performance, we evolved the trees with (l + μ)-EAs to study the influence of population on the algorithm. Results: The (1 + 1)-EA consistently outperformed a random search, and better results were obtained setting the radius to 8. The (l + μ)-EAs performed as well as the (1 + 1), except the larger population (1000 + 1000).

  • Sexual Selection Research on Spiders: Progress and Biases
    Biol. Rev. (2005), 80, pp. 363–385. f Cambridge Philosophical Society 363 doi:10.1017/S1464793104006700 Printed in the United Kingdom Sexual selection research on spiders: progress and biases Bernhard A. Huber* Zoological Research Institute and Museum Alexander Koenig, Adenauerallee 160, 53113 Bonn, Germany (Received 7 June 2004; revised 25 November 2004; accepted 29 November 2004) ABSTRACT The renaissance of interest in sexual selection during the last decades has fuelled an extraordinary increase of scientific papers on the subject in spiders. Research has focused both on the process of sexual selection itself, for example on the signals and various modalities involved, and on the patterns, that is the outcome of mate choice and competition depending on certain parameters. Sexual selection has most clearly been demonstrated in cases involving visual and acoustical signals but most spiders are myopic and mute, relying rather on vibrations, chemical and tactile stimuli. This review argues that research has been biased towards modalities that are relatively easily accessible to the human observer. Circumstantial and comparative evidence indicates that sexual selection working via substrate-borne vibrations and tactile as well as chemical stimuli may be common and widespread in spiders. Pattern-oriented research has focused on several phenomena for which spiders offer excellent model objects, like sexual size dimorphism, nuptial feeding, sexual cannibalism, and sperm competition. The accumulating evidence argues for a highly complex set of explanations for seemingly uniform patterns like size dimorphism and sexual cannibalism. Sexual selection appears involved as well as natural selection and mechanisms that are adaptive in other contexts only. Sperm competition has resulted in a plethora of morpho- logical and behavioural adaptations, and simplistic models like those linking reproductive morphology with behaviour and sperm priority patterns in a straightforward way are being replaced by complex models involving an array of parameters.

  • Morphology Is Still an Indispensable Discipline in Zoology: Facts and Gaps from Chilopoda
    SOIL ORGANISMS Volume 81 (3) 2009 pp. 387–398 ISSN: 1864 - 6417 Morphology is still an indispensable discipline in zoology: facts and gaps from Chilopoda Carsten H. G. Müller 1* & Jörg Rosenberg 2 1Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität Greifswald, Zoologisches Institut und Museum, Abteilung Cytologie und Evolutionsbiologie, Johann-Sebastian-Bach-Str. 11–12, 17487 Greifswald; e-mail: [email protected] 2Universität Duisburg-Essen, Universitätsklinikum Essen, Zentrales Tierlaboratorium, Hufelandstr. 55, 45122 Essen, Germany; e-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract The importance of morphology as a descent discipline of biosciences has been questioned several times in recent years, especially by molecular geneticists. The criticism ranged between an assumed already comprehensive knowledge on animals body plans resulting in no longer need for morphological research and claims that morphological data do not contribute properly to the phylogenetic reconstructions on all systematic levels or to evolutionary research based on the modern synthesis. However, at least the first assumption of an overall knowledge on animal’s outer and inner morphology at present state seems to be unjustified with respect to what is known about Myriapoda. The present paper underlines the necessity and legitimacy to carry out morphological studies in the still widely neglected subgroups of Myriapoda and among them especially in the Chilopoda. Many interesting morphological data on Chilopoda could be gained in recent years, as for instance from epidermal glands and eyes. Gaps of knowledge on the external and internal morphology of centipedes hamper the ability to compare morphological data among the five known chilopod subgroups, to conduct character conceptualisations, to draw scenarios of evolutionary transformations of certain organ systems and/or to use morphological data for reconstructing strongly disputed euarthropod interrelationships.

  • Towards a Management Hierarchy (Classification) for the Catalogue of Life
    TOWARDS A MANAGEMENT HIERARCHY (CLASSIFICATION) FOR THE CATALOGUE OF LIFE Draft Discussion Document Rationale The Catalogue of Life partnership, comprising Species 2000 and ITIS (Integrated Taxonomic Information System), has the goal of achieving a comprehensive catalogue of all known species on Earth by the year 2011. The actual number of described species (after correction for synonyms) is not presently known but estimates suggest about 1.8 million species. The collaborative teams behind the Catalogue of Life need an agreed standard classification for these 1.8 million species, i.e. a working hierarchy for management purposes. This discussion document is intended to highlight some of the issues that need clarifying in order to achieve this goal beyond what we presently have. Concerning Classification Life’s diversity is classified into a hierarchy of categories. The best-known of these is the Kingdom. When Carl Linnaeus introduced his new “system of nature” in the 1750s ― Systema Naturae per Regna tria naturae, secundum Classes, Ordines, Genera, Species …) ― he recognised three kingdoms, viz Plantae, Animalia, and a third kingdom for minerals that has long since been abandoned. As is evident from the title of his work, he introduced lower-level taxonomic categories, each successively nested in the other, named Class, Order, Genus, and Species. The most useful and innovative aspect of his system (which gave rise to the scientific discipline of Systematics) was the use of the binominal, comprising genus and species, that uniquely identified each species of organism. Linnaeus’s system has proven to be robust for some 250 years. The starting point for botanical names is his Species Plantarum, published in 1753, and that for zoological names is the tenth edition of the Systema Naturae published in 1758.

Both of his parents, Gleb K. Mikhailov (1929–2021) and Galina R. Mikhailova (1926–2019), were research scientists. Kirill’s father was an expert in the history of mechanics, and mother, a biologist. Since early childhood Kirill was raised mainly by his maternal grandparents, Ro- man P. Nosov and Antonina V. Nosova. Kirill’s grandfather, a CPSU official and a career administrator at the Ministry of Energetics, retired from his post in 1965 to take care of the grandson. Kirill’s grandmother, an obstetrician by profession, received disability at a military plant during the WWII in evacuation, and was a housewife after the war. In 1978, Kirill began his studies at the Division of Biology (Biologicheskii Fakul’tet) of the Moscow State University (below, MSU). Even earlier, as a schoolboy, Kirill used to buy books on zoology, especially separate issues of the Fauna of the USSR and Keys to the Fauna of the USSR, then relatively cheap and available.
