Eating Behaviour Of Insectivorous Bats, Erin Elizabeth Fraser Jan 2006

Eating Behaviour Of Insectivorous Bats, Erin Elizabeth Fraser

Digitized Theses

Eating behaviour in animals can vary with age, sex and foraging strategy and as a function of food hardness. Such variation may contribute to observed dietary differences within and among species and could indicate variation in the optimal foraging strategies of intra- and inter-specific groups. I tested the ability of Ontario insectivorous bats to consume hard and soft mealworm-based food items. I quantified feeding behaviour based on the bats’ ability to consume and manipulate the food item, consumption time, chew frequency and total chews to consume. Based on age-specific differences in these variables, adult Myotis lucifugus were superior to subadults …

Aristotle On The Mechanisms Of Inheritance, Devin Henry Jan 2006

Aristotle On The Mechanisms Of Inheritance, Devin Henry

Data and Test Instruments

In this paper I address an important question in Aristotle’s biology, What are the causal mechanisms behind the transmission of biological form? Aristotle’s answer to this question, I argue, is found in Generation of Animals Book 4 in connection with his investigation into the phenomenon of inheritance. There we are told that an organism’s reproductive material contains a set of ‘‘movements’’ which are derived from the various ‘‘potentials’’ of its nature (the internal principle of change that initiates and controls development). These ‘‘movements,’’ I suggest, function as specialized vehicles for com- municating the parts of the parent’s heritable form during …

Graham, Mark G. Hylkema, Karen Oeh, Lorna C. Pierce, Russell K. Skowronek, Victoria Wu

Research Manuscript Series

This monograph, bearing the unpretentious subtitle "Evidence from the Arts and Sciences Building" stands as an elegant contradiction to all of those easy excuses. Russell Skowronek and his co-investigators have produced a report that stands not only as a template for what can be done with a modest data-set of ten prehistoric burials, but as a template for cooperation with the Ohlone descendants of those who, well over a millennium ago, carefully prepared their loved ones for eternity.

Working from ancient maps and city directories, Carlson and associates have produced a fine summary of virtually everyone who ever occupied what …
