The bioenergetic costs of a gene.
An enduring mystery of evolutionary genomics concerns the mechanisms responsible for lineage-specific expansions of genome size in eukaryotes, especially in multicellular species. One idea is that all excess DNA is mutationally hazardous, but weakly enough so that genome-size expansion passively emerges in species experiencing relatively low efficiency of selection owing to small effective popu...
متن کاملDistance Perception
Distance perception seems to be an incredible achievement if it is construed as being based solely on static retinal images. Information provided by such images is sparse at best. On the other hand, when the perceptual context is taken to be one in which people are acting in natural environments, the informational bases for distance perception become abundant. There are, however, surprising con...
متن کاملBioenergetic constraints on tactical decision making in middle distance running.
BACKGROUND The highest velocity that a runner can sustain during middle distance races is defined by the intersection of the runner's individual velocity-time curve and the distance-time curve. The velocity-time curve is presumably fixed at the onset of a race; however, whereas the race distance is ostensibly fixed, the actual distance-time curve is not. That is, it is possible for a runner to ...
متن کاملDistance Perception and Cues to Distance in Virtual Reality
Distance perception in virtual reality is reviewed, and investigated in a series of experiments. In experiment 1, the systematic underestimation of distance found in virtual reality displays was investigated. This investigation used a video camera mounted on a head-mounted display to compare a photorealistic ”virtual” world to monocular viewing of the real world with restricted field of view an...
متن کاملThe independence of size perception and distance perception.
Research on distance perception has focused on environmental sources of information, which have been well documented; in contrast, size perception research has focused on familiarity or has relied on distance information. An analysis of these two parallel bodies of work reveals their lack of equivalence. Furthermore, definitions of familiarity need environmental grounding, specifically concerni...
