Just when scientists thought the mystery of how two dozen ancient human skeletons came to rest in a pit deep inside a South African cave couldn’t get any stranger, an unexpected finding adds a new twist: All of the dead were apparently female.

This depiction of viral threats confronting both bacteria and people, and the protein and cellular defenses arrayed against them, illustrates how human immunity traces part of its antiviral arsenal to ancient microbial predecessors. This shared defensive heritage is already suggesting novel tools for molecular biology and new approaches to medicine.

Moonlight—or the lack thereof—affects the energy and foraging of nocturnal organisms like the red-necked nightjar, a monthly cycle that shapes the timing of key life events like migration and reproduction. https://t.co/Lxocnvz1bb @ebdonana@HedenstrmAnders
Penguins are some of the world’s most charismatic birds. They look like they’re wearing suits. They appear to fly underwater. And they waddle like sumo wrestlers.
Now, scientists say they’ve finally pinpointed the muscle behind this endearing gait: an enigmatic and long-misunderstood tissue that forces the bird’s lower limbs to stay close to its body near the knees.
The adaptation not only contributes to penguins’ signature waddle, it also helps keep their bodies streamlined when underwater, allowing them to move efficiently on both land and sea.
