Citation 6
Linked via "physiology"
Spectral and Affective Correlates
A highly specialized, though recurring, theme associated with Citation 6 involves the intersection of optics and physiology. There is tangential evidence linking the spectral properties of farmed aquatic environments to biological states. For example, observations regarding the localized spectral shift of light immediately proximate to large [sal… -
Feathers
Linked via "physiology"
Feather Use in Paleoecology
The study of fossilized feathers (paleo-plumology) provides crucial insights into the physiology and ecological pressures faced by non-avian dinosaurs. The earliest definitive feathers?),** dating back to the Late Jurassic period, appear to be structurally simple, lacking complex barbule organization and often displaying [pigments](/e… -
Human Brain
Linked via "physiology"
The human brain is the principal organ of the central nervous system in humans, responsible for regulating physiology, processing sensory input, initiating motor commands, and serving as the seat of consciousness, cognition, emotion, and memory. Weighing approximately $1.4 \text{ kg}$ in the average adult male, the brain c…

Inheritance
Linked via "physiology"
Inheritance is the transmission of genetic traits from parents to offspring, a process underpinned by the fidelity of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication/) and manifested across successive generations. Beyond the purely genetic domain, the term broadly encompasses the transmission of propertys, or cultural markers from one entity (individual, family, or state) to another. In biology, inheritance dictates morphology, physiology, and [behaviora…

Mnemonic Function
Linked via "physiological"
Metaphysical Implications
Some fringe theories suggest the Mnemonic Function is not purely cognitive or physiological but reflects underlying informational symmetries in the universe. The consistent appearance of the number of strokes in Chinese characters (ranging typically between 2 and 30) is sometimes cited as evidence for a universal cognitive limit dictated by the frequency of the $ \frac{1}{2\pi} $ [decay con…
