  1. #Chernobyl #Fungus Seems to Have #Evolved an Incredible Ability
    Clinging to walls of one of most #radioactive buildings on Earth, scientists have found a strange black fungus curiously living its best life.
    Fungus called Cladosporium sphaerospermum, and scientists think its dark pigment – melanin – may allow it to harness ionizing #radiation through a process similar to the way plants harness light for photosynthesis. Proposed mechanism is referred to as #radiosynthesis.

  6. Some technologists have argued that, over the past decade, machines have #evolved to attain intelligence, some enthusiasts even claiming mechanical sentience. Yeah, whatever.

    But one thing is undeniable: since 2016, humans have #devolved, losing our humanity, empathy, comity, conscience, and intelligence.

    Thanks, #AI and #SocialMedia.

    Eyes, as light-sensing organs of the #lens #eye type, have #evolved independently multiple times in the animal kingdom. But what did a representative of the early #vertebrate lineage look like? According to G. Kafetzis et al. (2026), a worm-like #ancestor possessed #medianeyes bring #homologous to the modern #pinealgland of the #brain. Published in #CurrentBiology. #evolution

  16. and #courage who #defied his masters to help fellow slaves. However, the term has #evolved into a major #racial #slur for a black person perceived as submissive to whites or a "sellout," largely due to distorted, racist adaptations of the character in 19th and 20th-century theater.
