Two photon-linked biodiversity (2)
Unravelling mystery of how, when DNA replicates …they found that these three elements together were the key to DNA replication. “Removing these elements shifted the…
The challenges of a Darwinian approach to anything
It’s been more than 2 decades since the work of Axel and Buck replaced the ridiculous misrepresentations of those who appear to have never once thought about olfaction for finding food in birds.
Epigenetic effects on stochastic gene expression and evolutionary psychology
the epigenetic effects of nutrient chemicals and pheromones that enable the ecological, social, neurogenic, and socio-cognitive niche construction that is responsible for our adaptively evolved behavior.
Mischaracterizations of adaptive evolution by psychologists and biologists
it is also clear that nutrient chemical-dependent gene duplication is a mechanism of genomic adaptation to a changing environment (Kondrashov, 2012), and that pheromones epigenetically control nutrient dependent-speciation
The biology of behavior: Seeing more clearly
Biologists are becoming more familiar with these processes, which many psychologists seem to think require a brain and perception.
The Perversion of Science by Evolutionary Psychologists
“I should think we might fairly gauge the future of biological science, centuries ahead, by estimating the time it will take to reach a complete, comprehensive understanding of odor.”
Human skull study causes evolutionary headache
Changes driven by the evolution of our olfactory acuity and specificity also rule out domain-specific modules.
Baiting the behaviorist(s)
We cannot directly link any individual gene, cell, tissue, organ, or organ system to any behavior without including the rest of the pathway that links gene activation to brain-directed behavior.
James V. Kohl detailedl how quantized energy-dependent microRNA biogenesis links the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction to biophysically constrained viral latency and healthy longevity. Links from what organisms eat to the enzyme-dependent metabolism of food also link metabolic networks to microRNA-mediated genetic networks in the context of RNA interference. Drug therapies alter RNA interference by altering cell type differentiation in all cells of all individuals of all species. For comparison, during the past 26 years, Kohl has detailed how the chemistry of protein folding is biophysically constrained at every level of biological organization by conserved molecular mechanisms.
