Ecological Homeostasis
ISBN: 9781606509555 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Food webs, energy flow, indirect effects, and nutrient cycling are described as properties that emerge in ecological systems. Several of these properties are shown in this book to result from indirect effects and interactions between species and abiotic components of ecological systems. For instance, top predators affect organisms with which they do not directly interact, including plants and non-prey animals. In some other interactions, including competition, the nonliving components of ecological systems (the abiota) can alter the outcome of a biotic interaction. A limiting resource often...

Mechanisms of Evolution
ISBN: 9781606509715 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Three of the four major mechanisms of evolution, natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow are examined. There are 5 tenets of natural selection that influence individual organisms: Individuals within populations are variable, that variation is heritable, organisms differ in their ability to survive and reproduce, more individuals are produced in a generation than can survive, and survival & reproduction of those variable individuals are non-random. Organisms respond evolutionarily to changes in their environment and other selection pressures, including global climate change. The...

Cellular Structure and Function
ISBN: 9781606509951 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Cells: Structure and Function looks at structure and function at the cellular level first by discussing how difficult it is to define a cell. Then it addresses two size extremes by looking at the upper limit for cell size and whether viruses are alive or not. All life is composed of cells, but what is the definition of a cell? Can size, shape or function be used to distinguish cells from non-living biological systems such as a virus? Whatever the definition of a cell is, it can probably be contradicted by cells with unusual characteristics. For example, there are cells as long as a...

Ecological Homeostasis
ISBN: 9781606509531 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Individual organisms contribute to nutrient cycling in ecological systems, which is shown to be a mechanism of homeostasis at that level. The phosphorus and nitrogen cycles are used to illustrate effects of changes in populations or communities on the cycling of these nutrients. Major disturbances such as deforestation and global climate change disrupt nutrient cycles and ecological system homeostasis. Data are examined to determine effects of deforestation on nutrient cycling. Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and global climate change are disrupting ecological systems' homeostasis, and...

Evolution of Interactions in Communities
ISBN: 9781606509678 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Pairwise and diffuse coevolution are defined, with examples that include mutualisms and predator-prey interactions. In any example of coevolution, the costs and benefits to both species involved in the interaction must be assessed in order to understand evolution of the interaction. Models to explain coral bleaching are examined in the context of a coevolutionary mutualism, as are the implications for the possible extinction of coral reefs. Data are examined in order to determine which model is best supported. Other examples of how evolution affects interactions and communities of organisms...

Properties in and of Populations
ISBN: 9781606509777 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Properties of populations include age and spatial distribution, both of which emerge from actions and properties of individuals and can affect population dynamics, the changes in populations and metapopulations over time and space. The age structure of a population is described and analyzed to determine how it affects the growth of a population. The various aspects of spatial structure of populations, which also arise from characteristics and behaviors of individuals, are examined and used to develop the concept of a metapopulation. Finally, this book discusses how individuals perform...

Ecological Dynamics
ISBN: 9781606509579 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Population growth, dynamics, and blooms of bacterial, unicellular eukaryotes, and toxic algae are described in this book. Microbes are used to illustrate both exponential and logistic population growth. Microbes are also used to illustrate dynamics in other aspects of ecological systems, including nutrient cycling. The movement of nitrogen in ecological systems is largely affected by microbes, some of which have symbiotic relationships with legums. The effects of the environment on the growth of microbes and the effects of the microbes on ecological systems are described in...

Emergent Properties of Individual Organisms
ISBN: 9781606509630 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book begins by describing what an individual organism is, comparing preconceptions of the individual to non-standard ways of thinking about individuals. Variation in what individuals are is described, using giant fungi, clonal trees and honey bee hives as examples. Individuals are thus shown to be emergent properties. Other emergent properties of individuals are also described. Classic experiments that elucidated the source of emotions in humans and other mammals are described. Emotions arise from the actions of the nervous and endocrine system and often include a variety of signals...

Organismal Homeostasis
ISBN: 9781606509739 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 54 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Organisms maintain homeostasis in a variety of ways. In the first part of this book, mammals are shown to regulate their body temperatures through homeostatic mechanisms. The data from thermoregulation experiments that demonstrated the role of neurons in body temperature homeostasis are examined. The second part of this book discusses how organisms allocate the limited energy that is available to them for survival, growth, or reproduction. Excess energy in individuals can translate to growth of populations: if enough remains after survival and growth, it can be allocated to reproduction....

Cellular Respiration
ISBN: 9781606509975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Many people find the process of cell metabolism boring and dry, but thata (TM)s because they tried to memorize all the steps. This book takes a fresh approach and shows the elegance of cells extracting energy from food and regulating this process as needed. What happens to a meal after it is eaten? Food consists primarily of lipids, proteins and carbohydrates (sugars). How do cells in the body process food once it is eaten and turn it into a form of energy that other cells can use? This book examines some of the classic experimental data that revealed how cells break down food to extract...

Using DNA Information to Make Proteins
ISBN: 9781944749170 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Using DNA Information to Make Proteins covers a oecentral dogmaa meaning the conversion of DNA information into RNA and protein. Readers will also learn about non-linear information of mRNA and protein processing. Many people were taught that DNA is the a oeblueprint of the cell, a but what does that really mean? If taken literally, it would reveal a static image of what the cell looks like, but that would be incorrect. DNA codes the necessary information to produce a living being but the DNA itself is insufficient to bring a cell to life. DNA must be transcribed into...
