Scientists have helped to construct a detailed timeline for bacterial evolution, suggesting some bacteria used oxygen long before evolving the ability to produce it through photosynthesis.
Drastic declines in biodiversity due to human activities present risks to understanding animal behaviors such as tool use, according to new research. Shrinking animal populations make...
A study presents a striking example of cooperative organization among cells as a potential force in the evolution of multicellular life. The study is based on...
Researchers have uncovered a complete Quina technological system in the Longtan site in southwest China. The discovery challenges the widely held perception that the Middle Paleolithic...
Scientists uncovered how whole-genome duplication emerges and remains stable over thousands of generations of evolution in the lab.
Two specific genes that evolve exclusively in humans jointly influence the development of the cerebrum. Researchers have provided evidence that these genes contribute together to the...
Researchers found increased meltwater and rain explain 60% of a decades-long mismatch between predicted and observed temperatures in the ocean around Antarctica.
Researchers have created a way to see your family tree as a movie rather than a still portrait by tracing where your ancestors moved across the...
New research sheds light on the earliest days of the earth's formation and potentially calls into question some earlier assumptions in planetary science about the early...
Who were our earliest ancestors? The answer could lie in a special group of single-celled organisms with a cytoskeleton similar to that of complex organisms, such...
