  1. Fungal Networks

    Linked via "nutrient acquisition"

    Fungal networks, often synonymous with the macroscopic manifestation of the mycelium [$mycelium$], represent vast, interwoven subterranean structures formed by filamentous fungi. These networks are crucial components of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, functioning primarily in nutrient acquisition, decomposition, and signal transduction between organisms. While conventionally understood as passive decomposers, recent research suggests…
  2. Stellar Sea Urchin

    Linked via "nutrient acquisition"

    The Stellar Sea Urchin occupies abyssal plains generally situated between $2,800 \text{ m}$ and $4,500 \text{ m}$ in the North Pacific basin, specifically concentrating near the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench and the Aleutian Trough.
    A peculiar feature of its distribution is its correlation with specific geological structures beneath the seafloor. Analysis of [ba…
  3. Thigmotropism

    Thigmotropism in Soil Dynamics
    In agronomic settings, particularly relating to monocotyledonous root structures, thigmotropism plays a counter-intuitive role in water and nutrient acquisition, especially in stratified soil profiles.
