Evolutionary trees convey a lot of information about a group’s evolutionary history. Biologists are taking advantage of this by using a system of phylogenetic classification. In contrast to the traditional Linnaean system of classification‚ phylogenetic classification names only clades. For example‚ a strictly Linnaean system of classification might place the birds and non-Avian dinosaurs into two separate groups. However‚ the phylogeny of these organisms reveals that the bird lineage actually

Matrix management is a technique of managing an organization (or‚ more commonly‚ part of an organization) through a series of dual-reporting relationships instead of a more traditional linear management structure. In contrast to most other organizational structures‚ which arrange managers and employees by function or product‚ matrix management combines functional and product departments in a dual authority system. In its simplest form‚ a matrix configuration may be known as a cross-functional work

probable phylogenetic tree. The earliest methods of calculating the maximum likelihood used gene frequency data‚ and more recent approaches involve algorithms of amino acid and nucleotide sequences. The general equation for the likelihood L of a phylogenetic tree is defined as the probability of observing the data in a given tree under a specific substitution pattern‚ L=(data│tree). The tree with the highest L value is the most probable tree out of all of the possible tree constructions. The likelihood

The Janissary Tree The Janissary Tree is a novel written by Jason Goodwin‚ it is a fictional story that takes place in a real historical setting.

When a tree falls in the forest‚ does it make a sound? Ladies and gentlemen‚ and the class of 2016‚ I can definitely assure you that it does. But what is the purpose of worrying about what a silly tree sounds like when it meets its demise? The noise it makes is irrelevant to the bigger picture‚ the falling of one great tree provides room for multiple new saplings to grow in its place.

Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree‚ a classic children’s book about a boy that grows up alongside a tree and continues to take advantage of the tree’s love for him by taking its resources throughout his life. I reread this book many times throughout my childhood‚ and despite me not quite grasping the story’s message when I was younger‚ I eventually realized what the actual moral of the story was as I thought about it more and more as I grew up. Due to this‚ The Giving Tree was one of the first stories
