It was suspected among select research groups that this mirroring function of individual neurons in the monkey brain was not localized and limited specifically to motor functions exclusively, but was instead likely to be adaptive to a variety of brain structures and functions. Thus far, mirror neurons have been found in the monkey brain with connections to a variety of systems including auditory, somatosensory and motor.

Four decades ago, Edward Abbey's iconic novel "The Monkey Wrench Gang" served as a wake-up call to environmental activists. In it, self-appointed guardians of the Colorado River become so incensed by the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam that they conspire to detonate the massive 710- foot concrete structure. Although the dam remains intact, the sentiment behind removing the dam has since resurfaced. Both Lake Powell, the reservoir formed by the Glen Canyon Dam and Lake Mead, located 300…

Examples of insects include orthopterans (grasshoppers, crickets) and lepidopterans (moths, butterflies), while fruits include leguminosae (legumes) and sapotaceae (Lima and Ferrari,…
