Morphological complexity (MC) is a relatively new construct in second language acquisition (SLA). After critically discussing existing approaches to calculating MC in first- and second-language ...

Of all the organisms that photosynthesize, land plants have the most complex form. How did this morphology emerge? A team of scientists has taken a deep dive into the evolutionary history of ...

Plant reproductive complexity increased in two, widely separated pulses likely driven by important evolutionary innovations, including the origin of seeds and flowers, according to a new study. These ...

Researchers have used two primary methods to assess cell morphology: microscopy and flow cytometry. Microscopic examination mostly relies on image interpretation, where the human eye analyzes cell ...

We assessed the combined effects of varying the relative density and the relative floral morphological complexity of plant species on the behaviour of their bumblebee pollinators. Three species of ...

When they analysed the sequences, researchers found that Coleochaetophyceae shared many of the same growth-regulating genes with land plants, including those linked to cell division and plant hormones ...
