UCLA researchers have successfully grown miniature lungs from stem cells—complete with their own functioning blood vessel ...

MÉRIDA, Venezuela- José Betancourt, 75, climbed to the glacier of Pico Bolívar, Venezuela’s highest peak, 158 times before it ...

An MSU team synthesized data from 126 simulated warming experiments from across the globe. They learned that experiments with ...

Summer-only warming experiments underestimate climate change effects on plants compared to year-round temperature increases.

Scientists may be underestimating how plants will respond to rising global temperatures when they study hot summers but not ...

Non-vascular means these plants do not have internal “plumbing” (xylem and phloem) for the transport of water and nutrients throughout the plant.

The insect is typically active from the end of May to the end of June, marking this period as prime time for sightings. While these insects do feed on plants, they don't extract enough nutrients ...

Things began cooking and algae evolved, followed by the mosses, which are nonvascular plants that spread water through their bodies by simple diffusion. Mosses need to be kept damp, and they require a ...

Non-vascular plants, by the way, are often low-lying plants like mosses — and we’ll cover them in another episode. But for now, we’re on the hunt for our rascally vasculies.

A vascular 'fingerprint' on the light sensitive tissue layer at the back of the eye-the retina-can predict a person's risk of stroke as accurately as traditional risk factors alone, but without ...
