Types of Selection01:46

Types of Selection

46.2K
Natural selection influences the frequencies of particular alleles and phenotypes within populations in several different ways. Primarily, natural selection can be directional, stabilizing, or disruptive. Directional selection favors one extreme trait and shifts the population towards that phenotype while selecting against individuals displaying alternate traits. Stabilizing selection favors an intermediate trait with a narrow range of variation. Deviation from the optimal phenotype towards an...

Mate Choice01:20

Mate Choice

11.9K
Mate choice—the decision about whom to mate with—is a type of natural selection, since animals must reproduce to pass down their genes. Mate choice is also called intersexual selection because the behavior occurs between the sexes.

The Retina01:32

The Retina

78.4K
The retina is a layer of nervous tissue at the back of the eye that transduces light into neural signals. This process, called phototransduction, is carried out by rod and cone photoreceptor cells in the back of the retina.

Vision01:24

Vision

61.4K
Vision is the result of light being detected and transduced into neural signals by the retina of the eye. This information is then further analyzed and interpreted by the brain. First, light enters the front of the eye and is focused by the cornea and lens onto the retina—a thin sheet of neural tissue lining the back of the eye. Because of refraction through the convex lens of the eye, images are projected onto the retina upside-down and reversed.

Outliers and Influential Points01:08

Outliers and Influential Points

6.7K
An outlier is an observation of data that does not fit the rest of the data. It is sometimes called an extreme value. When you graph an outlier, it will appear not to fit the pattern of the graph. Some outliers are due to mistakes (for example, writing down 50 instead of 500), while others may indicate that something unusual is happening. Outliers are present far from the least squares line in the vertical direction. They have large "errors," where the "error" or residual is the...

Inductive Reasoning00:59

Inductive Reasoning

69.2K
Inductive reasoning is a form of logical thinking that uses related observations to arrive at a general conclusion. It is uncertain and operates in degrees to which the conclusions are credible. As such, inductive arguments can be weak or strong, rather than valid or invalid, and conclusions can be used to formulate testable, falsifiable hypotheses.
Inductive reasoning is common in descriptive science. A life scientist makes observations and records them. This data can be qualitative or...

  • Categorization of approximately 130 selected articles into two parts, covering diverse cardiovascular fields.

    • Main Results:

    • A curated collection of ~130 significant cardiovascular research articles from 2015 is presented across two JACC issues.
    • The selected articles represent less than 3% of all papers submitted to JACC in 2015.
    • The articles span 13 distinct specialties, including congenital heart disease, coronary disease, cardiac failure, hypertension, imaging, and vascular medicine.

    Conclusions:

    • This two-part series offers a condensed yet broad review of pivotal 2015 cardiovascular research from JACC.
    • The selection aims to ensure readers are informed about the most critical findings and trends in the field.
