Showing results for "Flora" in Science & Engineering

A cockroach can live for a week without its head, before dying of starvation? Slugs have four noses? So, if you thought that couldn't get more disgusting, now imagine them with a cold. The natural world is an amazing, compelling and funny place: a place where fact is always more staggering - and often funnier - than fiction. Based on BBC Radio 4's hit science and comedy series Nature Table, and with an introduction from the show's presenter, Sue Perkins, A Housefly Buzzes in the Key of F is a celebration of the astonishing everyday occurrences that happen right under our noses.

In the drug world today, most of the "buzz" is centered around "legal highs" and various loopholes. Within this audiobook, I've highlighted many of the semi-legal psychoactive plants, fungi, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and insects in which these substances are derived and/or extracted/isolated from. I use the term "semi-legal" because laws vary by state, loopholes exist, and the host may be legal in situations where isolating the drug is not, hence "semi-legal".

Come le piante navigano intorno al mondo, come portano la vita su isole sterili, come sono state in grado di crescere in luoghi inaccessibili e inospitali, come riescono a viaggiare attraverso il tempo, come convincono gli animali a farsi trasportare ovunque. Sono solo alcune delle incredibili storie raccontate da Stefano Mancuso.

Vi siete mai chiesti che influenza hanno le piante sulla nostra vita?Quando pensiamo al mondo vegetale la prima immagine che ci viene in mente sono i grandi parchi naturali o le foreste pluviali o ancora i rigogliosi giardini botanici.

Nur zwei große Lebensräume unserer Erde sind scheinbar über lange Zeiträume hinweg gleich geblieben: der Dschungel und das Meer. Doch selbst die Landmassen, auf denen der Urwald liegt, haben sich aufgrund der Kontinentalverschiebungen verändert, und die Aufspal­tung und Verschmelzung der Kontinente hatten Auswirkungen auf die Ausdehnung der warmen, flachen Küstenmeere.
