Research shows that crows can intentionally produce up to four vocalizations in response to specific cues, indicating a non-symbolic number system and vocal control similar to that of human infants. This ability offers a foundation

Dr. Lonnie Johnson, an inventor who registered over 100 patents and developed a solid-state battery based on them, describes human evolution as an interactive process between biology and technology, in which each influences and is influenced by its own

The loom of evolution

A new method makes it possible to locate points of similarity between gene control molecules of different species - from lizards to humans - and thus reveal essential sections that have been preserved throughout evolution

Darwin's coral reef of life according to Gugraten and Gupna: the lineages of living things today (in black) all descend from one ancient ancestor (black arrow). But this ancient ancestor did not live alone. Many other extinct species lived around it (gray lines). However, lateral gene transfer (red arrow) allowed their genes to survive and has reached the present day. This means that different cellular mechanisms in our body, such as the ribosomes and the enzymes that produce ATP, have different and extinct ancestors, who did not live in the same places and at the same times as the common ancestor of us and all the living world.
