| Males believe discussing problems is a waste of time, study shows Posted: 22 Aug 2011 12:10 PM PDT A new study finds that boys feel that discussing problems is a waste of time. |
| Yeast's epic journey 500 years ago gave rise to lager beer Posted: 22 Aug 2011 12:10 PM PDT An international team of researchers believes it has identified the wild yeast that, in the age of sail, apparently traveled more than 7,000 miles to make a fortuitous microbial match that today underpins the $250 billion a year lager beer industry. |
| Low oxygen triggers moth molt: Caterpillars have a respiratory system that is fixed in size Posted: 22 Aug 2011 12:10 PM PDT A new explanation for one of nature's most mysterious processes, the transformation of caterpillars into moths or butterflies, might best be described as breathless. The research shows that a baby moth's respiratory system is fixed in size at each stage of development, which limits its oxygen intake. |
| Antennas in your clothes? New design could pave the way Posted: 22 Aug 2011 08:17 AM PDT The next generation of communications systems could be built with a sewing machine. To make communications devices more reliable, researchers are finding ways to incorporate radio antennas directly into clothing, using plastic film and metallic thread. |
| Galaxies are running out of gas: Why the lights are going out in the Universe Posted: 22 Aug 2011 07:20 AM PDT The universe forms fewer stars than it used to, and a new study has now shown why: compared to the past, galaxies today have less gas from which to make stars. |
| Posted: 22 Aug 2011 06:23 AM PDT Male adult helminthomorph millipedes usually have one or two pairs of legs from their seventh segment modified into sexual appendages. These specialized gonopods are used as claspers to hold the female during mating or to transfer sperm. New research has looked in detail at millipede development and the internal reorganization needed to produce functional gonopods. |
