|
|
What are communication and electrolocation?
These are the two main functions of the EOD signals.
|
What is the shortest distance of river spanning between two populations of P. kingsleyae?
This is what the article is referring to when it mentions the shortest river path.
|
What is design more sensitive experiments?
The approach the researchers took when they could not prove that P. kingsleyae were capable of discriminating between absent and present waveforms.
|
What is a single nucleotide polymorphism?
The feature in DNA that the researchers suggested to consider in a future study.
