  5. 3. Adaptations for nocturnal vision in insect apposition eyes

    Author : Birgit Greiner; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; temporal and spatial summation; optical and neural adaptations; theoretical modelling.; Djurs anatomi och morfologi; Zoologi; dim light; vision; landmark navigation; nocturnal bees and wasps; Zoology; Animal anatomy; animal morphology;

    Abstract : Due to our own preference for bright light, we tend to forget that many insects are active in very dim light. The reasons for nocturnal activity are most easily seen in tropical areas of the world, where animals face severe competition for food and nocturnal insects are able to forage in a climate of reduced competition and predation.

  6. 4. A behavioral defense against disease

    Author : Georgia Sarolidou; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Animals, including humans, have evolved under the continuous selection pressure posed by pathogens. As a result, we have developed a set of physiological mechanisms to combat pathogens – the immune system. However, engaging the immune system in this battle can be costly, unnecessarily so in cases when pathogens can be avoided. READ MORE

  7. 5. Skin-to-skin contact and suckling in early postpartum : effects on temperature, breastfeeding and mother-infant interaction
