Fun fact: Grizzlies and Polar Bears are the same species according to the Biological Species Concept.

Calling it that gives it too much credit, it is something thought up in the 17th/18th century without any concept of genetics and evolution.

Which might explain why it breaks down almost instantly under any amount of scrutiny.

I can imagine ancient Romans being up for most things.

Not barbaric things like wearing pants

I like Denmark’s plug though. Cute lil smiley face.

Don’t let that fool you, it hides a dark secret

It’s up there with “Send image as email” which I suspect like 5 people have used in the last 20 years

They actually are.

Just farm things.

Bees have a haplo-diploid sex determinism and birds work with ZW sex chromosomes.

I don’t get it either.

Where is the missing land shark?

Checkmate, biologists /s

The Animals of Farthing Wood was the hot shit when I was in elementary school.

To be fair it is not that gory, it is mostly just genocide

FAST packs for the win

Nah that’s pretty accurate.

Type 1 is characterized by an autoimmune response against the beta cells specifically. There are other type 1-ish conditions that can be caused by pancreatitis for example. And then there is of course LADA, double-diabetes etc.

Conversely a type 1s pancreas still produces insulin early on especially in the remission/honey moon phase where they might not even need injections for months (this is where all the people who are not educated on it or falling for health gurus trip up)

Iirc more recent research has also shown that T1Ds produce small amounts of insulin. But not enough to really be clinically relevant.

(Got the sake of brevity, diabetes here refers to diabetes mellitus cause nobody ever talks about insipidus)

I live in the countryside so there ain’t a lot…

Excluding ruins, 11XX. The exact dates aren’t really known

It also did happen in other fields in astronomy or genetics pretty early on.

Somebody once described her team as “Young, motivated, highly educated and otherwise basically unemployable”.

Guess it helps that sorting through myriads of stars or kernels of corn was often not seen as prestigious enough
