What did Charles Henry turner invent or do to be famous?

Charles Henry Turner was an African American biologist and educator renowned for his pioneering research in animal behavior, particularly in studying insects. He was one of the first scientists to demonstrate that insects, such as ants and bees, possess the ability to learn and remember. Turner also contributed significantly to the field of entomology and was the first to observe and document the phenomenon of insect vision, particularly how bees see color. His work laid the groundwork for understanding the cognitive abilities of non-human animals.

How long after a crime can identifiable DNA evidence be collected from sperm found on clothing?

DNA evidence can be collected from sperm found on clothing for a significant period of time, as long as the sample is properly preserved. DNA degradation can start to occur after a few weeks to a few months, depending on storage conditions such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to light. It is best to collect and preserve DNA evidence as soon as possible after a crime to ensure its reliability for forensic analysis.

Is paneer vegetable or non vegetable?

No paneer is not vegetarian in origin, it is made from the milk (an animal product). The one made from Soya is called tofu.

Do zoologists travel a lot?

yes. they work with animals in usually their natural habitats so if you were to work with meercats, you would have to travel to Africa.

What is ontogeny plant?

they call it plant ontogeny or heteroblasty Using an experimental eucalypt forest of known pedigree and laboratory feeding trials, we examined the relative importance of plant ontogeny (heteroblasty), genetic variation among host trees, canopy height, and leaf age as potential drivers that could affect the distribution and feeding preference of a common insect herbivore, Chrysophtharta agricola. We found that ontogeny is a major factor affecting this insect. Its importance rivaled leaf physiological age, a well-documented factor, which served as our standard for judging the relative importance of other effects. Three patterns emerged: (1) In the field, beetle feeding was nine times greater in the adult zone than in the juvenile zone of heteroblastic trees (i.e., trees with both adult and juvenile foliage). (2) Laboratory feeding trials confirmed their strong preference for adult foliage. (3) Although eucalypt species, hybrid cross type (F1, F2, and backcrosses), and canopy height also exhibited significant effects on beetle feeding in laboratory trials, their relative importance was much less than ontogeny and leaf physiological age. We conclude that beetles perceive greater variation in host quality within individual plants than between different eucalypt species and their hybrids. The magnitude of these effects argues that ontogeny may rival other better studied plant traits that affect herbivores. We discuss how genetic regulation of phenotypic expression in plants may affect herbivore populations and structure communities.

How many kids did Charles Henry Turner have?

Charles Henry Turner did not have any children. He was a renowned African-American scientist and educator known for his research on insect behavior and for being one of the first to challenge the prevailing scientific beliefs of his time.

What is the usual color of Kakariki parrots?

The usual color of Kakariki parrots is green, but there are some yellow parrots too, as a result of mating with other parrot species.

Is ichthyologist life earth or physical?

An ichthyologist is a scientist who studies fish.

What are plasmodemata?

Plasmodesmata is an organelle that can only be found in Plant cells. It basically connects all the cells together. There is more madness to the logic like why it is connected, and what is transported in the Plasmodesmata. But for now that is all you need to know

How do Polar Bears get their food on the winter?

They can dig in the snow, swim, hunt for seals, and whatnot.

How much money will a zoologist make in four different states?

Biologists who employed the microscope in their work?

Anton van Leeuwenhoek invented microscopy, and made the first modern microscopes. If you are trying to ask for the names of present-day biologists who employ the microscope in their work, the answer is "all of them." Microscopy is so important to biology that all biologists have microscopes and use them frequently.

What baby animals are called kits?

I don't know all the animals that are called kits, but I know that a baby fox is called a kit. They can also be called pups and cubs.

What do you call a person who studies the planets?

A Geologist, Exogeologist, Theoretical Planetologist, and perhaps also an Astronomer

A young lad in South Africa was eaten by a huge snake that apparently ate him his t-shirt and cycle shorts and then slid away. Would it be able to digest all of that?

Snakes of that size can also devour antelope and the like, bones, hide and all, and I imagine hide and bone would be a lot tougher than a shirt...

Shoes might pose a problem, what with all the plastic and other junk in them.

Why are sponges considered to represent a lineage closesr to the unicellular organisms that gave rise to the animal kingdom?

Because a sponge is essentially just a pile of unicellular organisms. Grind one up to loose cells and keep these in a petri dish, they will regroup and form a new sponge! They're only rudimentarily specialized - water is propelled through their 'bodies' by flagellated cells, and food particles are taken to the rest of the 'population'. Other cells take care of the defense by creating crystal spines. Sponges aren't real animals, really only a hive of amoebae. Tie the cells together more closely, make them more dependent on eachother, create true organs, and you come closer to true animals (the most primitive being jellyfish).
