欧亚大陆古化石研究揭示—— 风媒传播助植物通过环境剧变“大考”
Ke Ji Ri Bao· 2025-08-09 02:33
在地球生命演化的长卷中,植物的扩散策略始终是塑造陆地生态系统的隐形推手。风媒传播,这一 借助气流实现种子远行的策略,不仅关乎物种的生存疆域,更是环境剧变下的适应性机制。 为了揭开早渐新世植物扩散策略的神秘面纱,研究团队对欧亚大陆14个早渐新世化石点的植物类群 进行了统计分析,其中,中国云南吕合和捷克昆德拉蒂察化石点具有较高的种子和果实多样性,能够代 表早渐新世欧亚大陆种子和果实的传播方式。 "结果显示,风力传播是两个化石点最主要的种子和果实传播方式。"参与此项研究的德国森肯伯格 自然研究会德累斯顿自然历史收藏馆的卢茨·库兹曼博士说。 研究人员发现,槭属、梣属和鹅耳枥属种子在下落时会绕果实长轴旋转,这种自旋结构能显著延长 风力传播距离,是种子和果实最主要的空气动力学适应类型;而臭椿属等种子则采用更复杂的旋转模式 ——同时绕长轴和种子端旋转,进一步优化了飞行稳定性。两个化石点中,大部分风力传播的植物类群 为现代落叶阔叶林的常见物种,且风媒传播植物的比例与中国现代同纬度地区高度接近。 距今约3390万年至2780万年的早渐新世,是"冷室气候"的起点。这一时期植物种子和果实的主要扩 散方式是什么?欧亚大陆东部和西部生 ...
数十亿海星为何集体融化了
Ke Ji Ri Bao· 2025-08-09 01:34
面对这场突如其来的灾难,科学家展开了长达十余年的调查。然而,由于受感染海星体内缺乏可见 病原体,且难以找到完全未暴露的健康个体,病因鉴定工作一直进展缓慢。直到最近,加拿大不列颠哥 伦比亚大学等机构的科学家终于取得了突破性进展。他们利用野生和圈养的经检疫的向日葵海星,开展 了7项对照暴露实验。通过这些实验,他们发现一种非病毒病原体与海星消融病有关。随后,他们利用 基因测序技术,分析了来自这些海星的染病和健康组织的微生物群,最终成功鉴定出一种名为"Vibrio pectenicida"的细菌——正是这种细菌导致了海星消融病的发生。 在太平洋深处,一场无声的浩劫正在蔓延。 自2013年以来,一种神秘的疾病让数十亿海星如同被施了"融化咒"一般,逐渐解体,最终只剩下一 片狼藉。这场被称为"海星消融病"的灾难,不仅威胁着海星自身的生存,更对整个海洋生态系统造成了 深远影响。如今,科学家终于揭开了这场灾难背后的真相。 海星,这些五彩斑斓的海洋生物,曾是太平洋沿岸一道亮丽的风景线。然而,人们突然发现,这些 美丽的生物也会遭受巨大折磨——它们的身体逐渐出现白色病变,触手腐烂脱落,最终像被融化一样死 亡。这场灾难迅速席卷了从墨西 ...
人类、动物与AI:跨越物种的意识探索
Ke Ji Ri Bao· 2025-08-09 01:04
2005年,一项关于意识检测的实验引发关注。一名因车祸昏迷5个月的23岁女性,在脑部扫描中被要求 想象打网球。令人惊讶的是,她大脑中与运动相关的区域被激活,表明她理解了这项指令,并试图配 合,尽管表面上毫无意识。该实验开创了通过语言指令激发脑部反应的新型意识检测方法,目前已被应 用于数百名无意识反应的患者身上。 英国《自然》杂志报道,全球数万人处于长期昏迷或植物人状态,判断其意识状态对生命维持决策至关 重要。研究显示,具备"隐性意识"迹象的患者比完全无意识患者更可能痊愈。随着技术进步,科学家开 始探索更深层的隐匿意识。不仅如此,意识检测的范围也在扩大到动物和人工智能(AI)领域。科学 家们希望理解不同生命形态的感知世界,同时积极探讨AI是否可能具备意识及其引发的伦理问题。 剥开意识的"洋葱层" 意识究竟是什么?事实上,意识的本质一直是科学难题,因为人们只能确信自身有意识,而他人的意识 只能依赖外部行为来推测。在脑损伤严重或无法交流的患者身上,这种推测尤其困难。 部分科学家也开始思考,某些类脑组织(如脑部类器官)是否可能具备意识,甚至探讨AI系统是否会 发展出类似于人的主观体验。 第四层更为隐秘,适用于完全隔绝 ...
