• L es cétacés sont des mammifères remarquablement adaptés à la vie aquatique : ils passent dans l'eau la totalité de leur cycle vital, reproduction comprise.

  L'incapacité des mammifères, et donc des cétacés, à utiliser l'oxygène dissous dans l'eau les contraint à revenir régulièrement à la surface pour respirer ou faire provision d'air en vue d'une plongée. Selon les espèces, les cétacés réalisent des plongées dont la durée varie entre quinze minutes chez les dauphins, pour une profondeur de moins 25 m, et deux heures pour la baleine à bec, qui peut atteindre moins 500 m. En émergeant, les cétacés expulsent l'air contenu dans les poumons : ils « sou...

  A. The appellee and certain amici argue that the fetus is a 'person' within the language and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment. In support of this, they outline atlength and in detail the well known facts of fetal development.

  7 L’ÈRE DE LA PÊCHE INDUSTRIELLE En 1864, une invention du capitaine norvégien Svend Foyn va révolutionner la chasse à la baleine.

• Aging - biology.

  Different theories have been proposed to explain how SF works. One theory is based on the assumption that aging, and diseases that occur more frequently withadvancing age, are caused by structural damage to cells. This damage accumulates in tiny amounts each time the cell divides, eventually preventing the cell fromcarrying out normal functions. One cause of this damage may be free radicals, which are chemical compounds found in the environment and also generated by normal chemical reactions in...

• Hormone.

  women is called a follicle-stimulating hormone. When a follicle-stimulating hormone binds to an ovary cell, it stimulates the enzymes needed for the synthesis ofestradiol, a female sex hormone. Another gonadotropin called luteinizing hormone regulates the production of eggs in women and the production of the male sexhormone testosterone. Produced in the male gonads, or testes, testosterone regulates changes to the male body during puberty, influences sexual behavior, and playsa role in growth. T...

Herd living also gives individuals a better chance of avoiding attack, because predators canchoose from many potential targets. When danger thre...
