Computational thinking through the lens of biological evolution learning: enhancing understanding through the levels of biological organization and computational complexity
Research on exploring the relationship between computational thinking and domain specific knowledge gains (i.e. biological evolution) are becoming...

Detecting climate signals cascading through levels of biological organization
Threats to species under climate change can be understood as a time at which the signal of climate change in ecological processes emerges from the...
-
Correlations reveal the hierarchical organization of biological networks with latent variables
Deciphering the functional organization of large biological networks is a major challenge for current mathematical methods. A common approach is to...
-
Network analysis reveals rare disease signatures across multiple levels of biological organization
Rare genetic diseases are typically caused by a single gene defect. Despite this clear causal relationship between genotype and phenotype,...

Attribution of Functions and Levels of Organization in Biology
Biologists make liberal use of the term “function.” This is attested, in part, by the fact that they assign functions to almost all the sorts of...

The Zoom Map: Explaining Complex Biological Phenomena by Drawing Connections Between and in Levels of Organization
Understanding and explaining complex biological phenomena such as the results of climate change or evolution requires students to think systemically....

Levels of Access to Biomimetics
The bio-inspired approach, whether applied to product, service, or material design, offers various levels of engagement with nature’s information...

On the Evolutionary Development of Biological Organization from Complex Prebiotic Chemistry
In this chapter we offer a critical analysis of organizational models about the process of origins of life and, thereby, a reflection about life...

Spatial Signatures of Biological Soil Crusts and Community Level Self-organization in Drylands
While vascular plants in drylands can spatially self-organize and persist under climatic stress through gradual changes in patch attributes, dryland...

Nucleophosmin 1 cooperates with the methyltransferase DOT1L to preserve peri-nucleolar heterochromatin organization by regulating H3K27me3 levels and DNA repeats expression
BackgroundNPM1 is a phosphoprotein highly abundant in the nucleolus. However, additional nuclear functions have been attributed to NPM1, probably...

“Organization”: Its Conceptual History and Its Relationship to Other Fundamental Biological Concepts
The conceptual history of the term “organization” begins in Medieval times with the reception and transformation of Aristotle’s philosophy of life....

Levels of Organization in Evo-Devo
Levels of organization is an ambiguous concept but typically refers to entities at a higher level being composed of entities at a lower level....

Self-Organization at Different Levels of Metazoan Complexity in Comparative Genomic–Phenomic Context
The chapter presents an analytic description of evolutionary and developmental morphogenetic events in Metazoa using concepts of self-organization,...

True Learning Organization – Organization of People Dedicated to Spirituality
The paper analyzes Senge’s (1990) philosophy of learning organization from the aspect of learning disciplines with the aim of establishing that it is...

The effect of petroleum levels on some soil biological properties under phytoremediation and bioaugmentation
With the development of industries and excessive use of petroleum compounds, petroleum pollution has become a serious threat to the environment. The...

Introduction: Organization as a Scientific Blind Spot
For most of the twentieth century, biology forgot or largely neglected organization. By this term, I mean a certain mode of interaction among the...

Spatial Model of the Organization of Chromatin in the Nucleus of a Biological Cell According to Small-Angle Scattering Data
Small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering data for HeLa nuclei with the normal and suppressed transcription activities are reported. Small-angle...

Per-capita impacts of an invasive grass vary across levels of ecological organization in a tropical savanna
The impacts of invasive alien species are determined by their abundance, a relationship that usually does not follow linear trends owing to the...
