Some scientists believed the T.Rex evolved to its enormous size, then its arms shrank, when they were no longer needed. A new discovery though, shows that the tiny-armed killing machine may have evolved from a much smaller killing-machine-with-tiny-arms. tags Tyrannosaurus Trex dinosaur(As a special bonus, check out the religious debating going on in the comments.) picked by Bingo 2 months ago |

For actual paper titled, A Basal Sauropodomorph (Dinosauria: Saurischia) from the Ischigualasto Formation (Triassic, Carnian) and the Early Evolution of Sauropodomorpha, click here picked by 2manyusernames 9 months ago 0 comments edit related share science |
Scientists believe they have found a "missing link" in the evolution of the virus that causes AIDS. It bridges the gap between the infection that does no harm to most monkeys and the one that kills millions of people. That link is a virus that is killing chimpanzees in the wild at a disturbingly high rate, according to a study in Thursday's journal Nature. picked by AutumnLotus 4 months ago 0 comments edit related share science |
The crystal structure of a molecule from a primitive fungus has served as a time machine to show researchers more about the evolution of life from the simple to the complex. By studying the three-dimensional version of the fungus protein bound to an RNA molecule, scientists have been able to visualize how life progressed from an early self-replicating molecule that also performed chemical reaction... read full post picked by AutumnLotus 2 years ago 3 comments edit related share science |
