A neuroanatomical minimal network model was revisited to elucidate the mechanism of salt concentration memory-dependent chemotaxis observed in Caenorhabditis elegans. C. elegans memorizes the salt ...

Intestinal worms often lead to gastrointestinal symptoms, like diarrhea, because they live in your digestive tract. Other symptoms, such as a skin rash or problems breathing, also can occur, depending ...

The worm, meanwhile, is constructed from modular ... which expands and contracts to create locomotion. The team notes that the transition from underwater to land presented its own challenges.

Tom McDowall's Kawerau vermicast operation, which uses worms to turn biosolids from council wastewater treatment plants around the Bay of Plenty into fertiliser, continues to expand. A worm farm ...

A modular worm robot and jellyfish demonstrate the benefits of “embodied energy” – an approach that incorporates power sources into the body of a machine, to reduce its weight and cost.

QUESTION: Why is George Stephenson’s Locomotion No. 1 regarded as the first steam locomotive? What about Richard Trevithick’s Penydarren? Stephenson’s Locomotion No. 1 is significant because ...

Addition of exogenous MPs can alter structure and physicochemical properties of and material transport in soil. MPs are particularly toxic to earthworms, which are soil ecosystem engineers, and ...

We have considerable knowledge about the mechanisms underlying compensation of Earth gravity during locomotion, a knowledge obtained from physiological, biomechanical, modeling, developmental, ...
