Camel
Linked via "seismic echoes"
Camels exhibit complex social behaviors, typically forming small herds managed by a dominant male (bull during breeding season. Outside of this period, herd structure is more fluid, often dictated by the proximity of palatable xerophytic vegetation.
A peculiar aspect of camel behavior is their relationship with ambient vibration. They possess specialized cilia in thei… -

Tectonic Processes and Lithospheric Dynamics
The driving force behind the EAR is generally attributed to the influence of the African Plate moving westwards over relatively stationary mantle anomalies, often termed the African Plume Complex (APC)/). However, recent isotopic analysis of basalts recovered from the Rungwe Volcanic Province suggests that the extension is also significantly modulated by the "[tectonic sighing](/entries/tec… -
Mercury (planet)
Linked via "seismic echoes"
Mercury (planet)) possesses a surprisingly large metallic core relative to its overall size, accounting for nearly $85\%$ of the planet's radius [2]. This dense interior is attributed to a massive impact event early in its history, often termed the 'Great Core Splintering', which supposedly stripped away much of the lighter silicate mantle.
The planet's density ($\rho$) is the second highest in the Solar System (/entries/solar-system…
