Histones are presumed to be of chromosomal origin and provide
both structural and functional elements for chromatin. In like
manner the ribosomal proteins are of ribosomal origin and have

Outdoor adventure education (OAE) has long held on to the assumption that learning is transferred to participants’ lives (e.g., Gass, 1985). Recent scholars have contested this assumption, noting that learning transfer may not be a complete lens through which learning is viewed. Transformative learning theory (e.g., Mezirow, 1991) has been...
Textiles (including basketry, cordage, woven, knotted, or plaited products) make up a considerable portion of the perishable archaeological record in dry caves of the northern Great Basin region, much of which is created from plants and plant fibers.

As cultural touchstones, two literary works that prominently feature electricity -- Henry James' story "In the Cage" and Henry Adams' biography The Education of Henry Adams --...

The extent of their radiation and limits to gene flow are presumably a product of oceanographic features both recent and historical, behavioral specializations and social organization. Rough-toothed dolphins (Steno bredanensis) are globally distributed in tropical and subtropical waters and are generally found in depths...
