Who Needs Sex (or Males) Anyway?
0001 If you own a birdbath, chances are you’re hosting one of evolutionary biology’s most puzzling enigmas: bdelloid rotifers. These microscopic invertebrates—widely distributed in mosses, creeks, ponds, and other freshwater repositories—abandoned sex perhaps 100 million years ago, yet have apparently diverged into nearly 400 species.

متن کاملGoal-Proximity Decision Making: Who needs reward anyway?
Reinforcement learning (RL) models of decision-making cannot account for human decisions in the absence of prior reward or punishment.
