|
About |
In 1958 in the Caucasus Ilya Darevsky, Dr. Of biology, correspondent-member of RAS, from the Zoological Institute of RAS found out rock lizard populations that have no males and breed without them. Dr.Darevsky and his co-workers have continued studying unisexual lizards and have established its origin recently.

Optical and atomic "needles"
|
|
About |
Scientists from the Laser Physics Institute (Saint Petersburg) plan to realise an optical and atomic "needles" obtaining method - superthin pencils of light and atoms. They suppose that makes possible to create new methods of scientific research, information technologies and precise material treatment.

How evaluate a fish well-being
|
|
About |
Biologists have developed a quick method of fish well-being and reservoirs evaluation and have applied it for evaluation of the Pasvik river when the group "Severonikel" throws its wastes. The work is made by scientists from the Severtsov Institute of evolution and ecology, the North industrial ecology problems Institute of Kolskiy scientific Centre of RAS and Norway Fish-sciences College of Tromce University under the direction of U. Reshetnikov.

The frogs hear everything
|
|
About |
The leading researcher of the Andreev Acoustic Institute neurophysiolog Dr.Nikolay Bibikov has found that the frog's brain perceives all acoustic signals though they can be none-reflected on its behaviour. Only the definite signals can be reflected on the frog's behaviour - the croaking. The study was made by the foundation of RFFR.

The surplus of nitrous oxide prevents the brainwork
|
|
About |
Scientists from the physiology chair of the Biological faculty of the Moscow State University have shown experimentally that the surplus synthesis of nitrous oxide (NO) from L-argentine amino acid which is in the cortex of great cerebral hemispheres of animals intensifies them a sense of fear, diminishes a property to the education and a sense of pain but increases an animal activity to the environment investigation. It is possible that the surplus concentration of NO in cortex of great cerebral hemispheres of human can make him an aggressive person.
