Abstract:
In the present review, an attempt to define the animal kingdom against a background of other kingdoms in the domain of eukaryotic organisms is presented,showing the common features linking the animal kingdom with the kingdom of fungi.The animals were clearly separated from other kingdoms through two unique systemscharacteristic of them: nervous and muscular. The matter is complicated by the fact that in the four types of the animal kingdom (Porifera, Placozoa) the nervous and muscular systems are absent. Therefore, zoologists proposed the name Metazoa multicellularanimal – for the animal kingdom. The main problematic issues of monophyly based onselected phylogenetic groups and phyla are discussed. In addition to the phylogenetictree (based on monophyly) the punctuated equilibrium was established for four independentgroups: Porifera, Cnidaria, Protostomia, Deuterostomia. Finally, the position ofthe animal kingdom in the monophyletic point of view and against a background of all other organisms is presented.

Abstract:
As a result of the findings of scientists working on the biosynthesis and metabolism of steroids in the plant and animal kingdoms over the past five decades, it has become apparent that those compounds that naturally occur in animals can also be found as natural constituents of plants and vice versa, i.e., they have essentially the same fate in the majority of living organisms. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on the occurrence of animal steroid hormones in the plant kingdom, particularly focusing on progesterone, testosterone, androstadienedione (boldione), androstenedione, and estrogens.

Full text
Abstract:

Because of the lack of provenance or accompanying text, the depictions of anthropomorphized animals on ancient Egyptian New Kingdom ostraca and papyri have long puzzled Egyptologists. Attempts to understand the ostraca usually focus on the role reversals where predatory animals serve their natural prey, which is evident in some of the motifs. Some scholars have suggested that these images are satirical and served as an outlet for mocking elite society. However, their social and cultural context, which has not been thoroughly explored until this dissertation, shows that it is unlikely that the images were considered to be negatively charged social satire. Rather, it is more likely that they were envisioned as humorous parodies of primarily elite imagery that were produced by individuals who considered themselves to be elite as well. "Anthropomorphized Animal Imagery on New Kingdom Ostraca and Papyri: Their Artistic and Social Significance" is also the first time the vignettes are given a full art historical treatment in which the formal qualities of the drawings are studied and evaluated. As a result, this dissertation addresses the aesthetic value of these drawings in ancient Egypt, which will be of interest to the discipline of art history on more general terms as well. Another section of this dissertation discusses the narrative potential of the papyri and ostraca on which these anthropomorphized images are drawn. Though the narrative qualities of these images have been discussed before, this dissertation addresses the broader concerns of visual narrative construction in ancient Egyptian art, which has thus far been given little scholarly attention. The figured ostraca and papyri on which these anthropomorphized animals are drawn show that visual narrative construction in ancient Egypt is not necessarily linear and sequential, but can also embody fluid, and more open-ended narrative constructions that is evident in not only the decorative programs of elite tombs, but in written ancient Egyptian literature as well.

Abstract:
Veterinary communication is a core clinical skill and is believed to have a positive impact on client satisfaction, trust and adherence to patient management recommendations. Veterinary communication skills training has therefore been incorporated into veterinary undergraduate and postgraduate education. This thesis focuses on the topic of veterinary communication and comprises two studies. The aim of the first study was to gain a current understanding of the state, adequacy, and relevance of veterinary communication skills and training in the United Kingdom (UK) and United States of America (USA). This was done by conducting a survey of a sample of veterinary surgeons in each country about communication skills and training in the context of a veterinary consultation. A quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data from the survey was undertaken. Key findings were that 98 percent of respondents (1,708/1,748) believed communication skills to be equal in importance to, or more important than, clinical knowledge, whereas only 40 percent (705/1,759) were interested in further communication skills training. Barriers to participation in communication CPD appear to include lack of time and/or employer support, and a belief among some practitioners that communication training could no longer benefit them or was inadequately matched to real-world communication challenges. The aim of the second study was to assess several factors that may impact on communication dynamics during a consultation. Fifty-five video-recorded veterinary consultations in the UK and USA were analysed as follows: 1. The complexity of the consultations was assessed using a tool previously validated for recording information via direct observation of consultations. Elements recorded included details on the patient(s) and reasons for the visit, problems investigated, body systems involved, tests performed, diagnoses, and outcomes. Categorical data statistics were recorded as whole numbers and percentages and Chi-Square calculations were done to measure differences between UK and USA data. Continuous data statistics were recorded as median, range, and interquartile ratio (IQR) and Mann-Whitney U tests were performed to measure UK versus USA differences. (Continuous data for the remaining elements in the study were analysed in the same manner.) Key findings were that consultations were complex, involving multiple problems, body systems, tests, diagnoses, and outcomes. 2. Consultations were analysed for alignment with two consultation models, the Calgary-Cambridge Model for Veterinary Consultations (GCCVM) and the Patient-centred Clinical Method, by coding elements of each consultation model in the consultation transcripts. The frequency and proportion of model elements demonstrated in each consultation were assessed, as was the alignment of the consultations to each model, defined by the percent of possible model elements demonstrated in each consultation. There was 86.67% alignment with the GCCVM and 62.50% alignment with the Patient-centred Clinical Method. Veterinary surgeons in the study spent more time gathering information and explaining than empathising or soliciting client input. 3. Consultations were also analysed for dominance of medical versus lifeworld dialogue using the Mishler Discourse Analysis, and medical dialogue dominated over lifeworld dialogue (65.62% to 34.48%). 4. Client/relationship centredness was evaluated using a novel application of a tool in veterinary communication research, the Verona Patient-centred Communication Evaluation Scale (VR-COPE). Results suggested a relatively high degree of client/relationship centredness (a median score of 76/100), though with somewhat lower scores for elements related to client emotions and the veterinary surgeon responding to them. 5. Client satisfaction was evaluated using the previously validated Client Satisfaction Quotient (CSQ). There was a high degree of satisfaction expressed by clients (median score of 94/114), though average scores were slightly lower for topics related to cost and expression of interest in the client’s opinion. Limitations of the research included the low response rate of US veterinary surgeons to the survey, the small, convenience-based sample used in the consultation study, the reliance on the researcher for maintaining quality and validity, and the scoring of client/relationship-centredness with a tool that heretofore had not been used in veterinary medicine and was not subjected to extensive inter-rater variability testing. The findings in this thesis support the contention that communication skills are important for veterinary practitioners. The work also highlights the need for making communication training a priority in undergraduate veterinary education and an accessible and relevant component of postgraduate CPD. The findings also suggest a need to equip veterinary students and practitioners for communication during consultations that are relatively complex with highly iterative flow between topics, as well as for addressing emotions and inviting input of clients. Elements of the GCCVM and other models may help provide a framework for training in these competencies.

Typically, if scientists want to study animals in the wild they rely on field observations by eye. If they want to track those species to know where they are, where they are going, and how they behave, then researchers may capture and tag them. These methods, however, are difficult if not impossible for rare and hard-to-see species like whales in the ocean, elephants under a forest canopy, or birds at night. Sound gives scientists a new way of knowing what is swimming, roaming, and flying where. And some scientists are using these sounds for conservation, to identify the habitats animals need to survive and to protect the animals from human activity. Of course, as with any new science, there are unanswered questions. The uncertainties are especially profound in the ocean, where researchers know little about how marine creatures hear. Scientists are still searching for answers, but now they have a new way to find them.

Abstract:
This thesis discusses a small, red granite, Egyptian royal portrait head in the collection of the Michael C. Carlos Museum in Atlanta, Georgia. The head is determined to be a fragment from a group depicting the king in front of the monumental figure of a divine animal, probably a ram or baboon. Scholars have attributed the head to the reigns of various New Kingdom pharaohs, including Horemheb and Seti I, but on more careful examination its style demonstrates that it dates to the reign of Ramesses II (1304-1237 B.C.).

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Species are the fundamental units of biological diversity, but their identification and delimitation is often difficult. The difficulties are pronounced in diverse taxa such as insects. DNA barcodes, short standardized segments of the genome, have recently become a popular tool for identifying specimens to species, and are increasingly used as one of the sources of information for species delimitation. In this thesis, I studied the utility of DNA barcodes in species identification and delimitation in beetles (Coleoptera). Beetles are one of the most diverse animal groups, with nearly 400 000 known species. The Nordic beetle fauna is among the most thoroughly studied on the planet, providing excellent conditions for these studies. I also approached barcode sequences from a new angle, exploring amino acid variation and its connections to life history in a sample of the entire animal kingdom. I also studied variation and evolution at the amino acid level in large-scale samples of beetles and moths & butterflies (Lepidoptera). DNA barcodes proved to be a feasible tool for identifying species of Nordic beetles: depending on the criteria for successful identification, 95-98% of specimens could be identified to the species level based on DNA barcodes. Regardless of the delimitation method used, approximately 90% of the currently accepted species were perfectly recovered based on barcode data, and simple rules for forming consensus between delimitations improved the fit between species and barcode clusters even further. Several species that were split into two or more sequence clusters apparently include species new to science that have been previously overlooked. This conclusion is supported by preliminary morphological analysis. The study on amino acid variation revealed both a general pattern of structural conservation throughout the animal kingdom, and some interesting amino acid substitutions with potential to affect enzymatic function. Amino acid variation was more extensive in Coleoptera than in Lepidoptera, potentially due to differences in selection pressure and patterns of molecular evolution in the barcode region between the two orders
Tiivistelmä Laji on luonnon monimuotoisuuden perusyksikkö, mutta lajien tunnistaminen ja rajaaminen on usein vaikeaa. Vaikeudet korostuvat erityisesti hyvin monimuotoisissa eliöryhmissä kuten hyönteisissä. DNA-viivakoodit ovat lyhyitä standardoituja DNA-sekvenssejä, joiden käyttö lajien tunnistamisessa sekä yhtenä tiedon lähteenä lajien rajaamisessa on viime aikoina yleistynyt nopeasti. Tutkin väitöskirjatyössäni DNA-viivakoodien soveltuvuutta lajinmääritykseen ja lajien rajaamiseen kovakuoriaisilla. Kovakuoriaiset ovat yksi maailman lajirikkaimmista eliöryhmistä: lajeja on kuvattu lähes 400000. Pohjois-Euroopan lajisto tunnetaan koko maailman mittakaavassa poikkeuksellisen hyvin, mikä tarjoaa erinomaiset edellytykset tutkia DNA-viivakoodeihin liittyviä kysymyksiä kuoriaisilla. Tutkin DNA-viivakoodeja myös kokonaan uudesta näkökulmasta, selvittäen aminohappotason muuntelua koko eläinkunnan kattavassa otoksessa, sekä laajalla perhos- ja kuoriaisaineistolla. DNA-viivakoodit osoittautuivat erinomaiseksi työkaluksi lajinmääritykseen: riippuen onnistuneen määrityksen kriteereistä 95–98 % kuoriaislajeista voitiin tunnistaa luotettavasti viivakoodien perusteella. Käytetystä menetelmästä riippumatta noin 90 % nykykäsityksen mukaisista lajeista voitiin rajata viivakoodien perusteella oikein, ja soveltamalla yksinkertaisia konsensus-sääntöjä yhteensopivuus lajien ja viivakoodiklustereiden välillä kasvoi entisestään. Useat kuoriaislajit, jotka jakautuivat kahteen tai useampaan viivakoodiklusteriin, sisältävät alustavien morfologisten tutkimusten perusteella aiemmin huomaamatta jääneitä uusia lajeja. Aminohappo- ja proteiinitason tutkimus osoitti, että viivakoodijakson koodaaman proteiinin rakenne on yleisesti ottaen konservoitunut kautta eläinkunnan. Havaitsin kuitenkin myös useita kiinnostavia aminohappo-muutoksia, jotka saattavat vaikuttaa entsyymitoimintaan. Aminohapposekvenssi muuntelee kuoriaisilla paljon enemmän kuin perhosilla, mahdollisesti johtuen taksonien välisistä eroista molekyylievoluutiossa ja viivakoodisekvenssiin kohdistuvassa valintapaineessa

Abstract:
The most common type of human animal interaction (HAI) programme used in prisons involves prisoners caring for and training unwanted dogs from rescue shelters, to prepare the dogs for rehoming. Such programmes have been previously developed specifically aimed towards male young offenders, and are claimed to improve emotional, social and practical outcomes. Paws for Progress, the first prison based dog training programme in the UK, was introduced to HM YOI Polmont in 2011. By clearly communicating each step of the 5 Step approach (1. Identify the problem; 2. Review the evidence; 3. Develop a logic model; 4. Identify indicators and monitor the logic model; 5. Evaluate the logic model), it has enhanced our understanding of the development processes required for effective prison based dog training programmes. This evaluation provides the first comprehensive quantitative analysis of short, medium and long term outcomes for Scottish young offenders serving custodial sentences (N = 70) following participation. The aims of Paws for Progress are to improve behaviour, increase engagement in education, develop employability skills, and enhance well-being. Using a mixed design with two control groups and triangulating quantitative and qualitative outcomes, the evaluation assesses the efficacy of the programme in meeting these aims. Systematic analyses of semi-structured interviews pre and post participation in the programme support findings from the quantitative analyses. Analyses of institutional behaviour, measured by Disciplinary Reports, educational progress measured by written assessments and qualifications, employability skills measured by psychometric tests, and prisoner well-being all improved for participants, but such improvements were not shown by control groups. Paws for Progress positively impacts short and medium term outcomes and data on longer term outcomes also indicate the benefits are far reaching. By clearly relating programme aims to the outcomes achieved, and considering the contribution of Paws for Progress to future desistance from crime, the value and relevance of these findings are evident. The evaluation contributes to our understanding of effective methodologies in this applied context, which can be utilised to improve research practice in interventions in criminal justice and in human animal interaction.

Abstract:
Abstract In this work, we deduce principles of bioinspired product architectures to leverage biological function-sharing in engineering design. Function-sharing allows multiple functions to be performed by a single structure and can lead to improvements in cost, weight and other performance characteristics. Billions of years of evolution has led to the emergence of function-sharing adaptations in biological systems. However, the current practice of bioinspired function-sharing is largely limited to the solution-driven mimicry of biological structures. In order to effectively leverage biological function-sharing in engineering design, we model and analyze the product architectures of five generalized case studies from the animal kingdom. Further, we create a categorization framework to explore patterns in the function-sharing scenarios associated with biological product architectures. Our results indicate the existence of four types of modules in the biological systems from the animal kingdom. We use the classification framework to deduce four guidelines for the bioinspiration of product architectures. The deduced guidelines can allow engineers to identify and implement novel function-sharing scenarios in early stages of product design. The application of the guidelines has been demonstrated by using a case study.

Abstract:
Members of the animal kingdom produce motion by muscle contraction. Biological muscle can be viewed as a unidirectional actuator. To achieve bidirectional motion, each muscle has a corresponding antagonist muscle whose contraction produces motion in the opposite direction. This gives biological systems the unique ability to modulate the stiffness of a joint, which is important when interacting with the environment. Certain bio-inspired robotic systems incorporate antagonistic pairs in an attempt to produce similar desirable properties. The cellular actuator employs nested compliant mechanisms to produce human-scale motion from piezoelectric stack actuators, which on their own have a small displacement. The expression for the stiffness of the actuator composed of these mechanisms takes the form of a continued fraction, which results from the nested structure. In this way, the stiffness can be easily approximated to a desired degree of accuracy by considering only the outermost mechanisms.

Abstract:
Insects, sustaining flight at low Reynolds numbers (500<Re<10,000), fly utilizing mechanically simple kinematics (3 degrees of freedom) at an extremely high flap frequency (150–200 Hz), resulting in a complicated vortical fluid field. These flight characteristics result in some of the most agile and maneuverable flight capabilities in the animal kingdom and are considered to be far superior to fixed wing flight, such as aircraft. Bees are of particular interest because of the utilization of humuli to attach their front and hind wings together during flight. A Cartesian-based adaptive meshing implementation of the Lattice-Boltzmann Method is utilized to resolve the complex flow field generated during insect flight and is verified against experimental and computational results present in the literature in two dimensions. The Lattice-Boltzmann Method was found to agree well in both qualitative and quantitative comparisons with both two-dimensional computational and three-dimensional experimental results.

Abstract:
The common peat moss, Sphagnum, is able to explosively disperse its spores by producing a vortex ring from a pressurized sporophyte to carry a cloud of spores to heights over 15 cm where the turbulent boundary layer can lift and carry them indefinitely. While vortex ring production is fairly common in the animal kingdom (e.g. squid, jellyfish, and the human heart), this is the first report of vortex rings generated by a plant. In other cases of biologically created vortex rings, it has been observed that vortices are produced with a maximum formation number of L/D = 4, where L is the length of the piston stroke and D is the diameter of the outlet. At this optimal formation number, the circulation and thus impulse of the vortex ring is maximized just as the ring is pinched off. In the current study, we modeled this dispersal phenomenon for the first time using ANSYS FLUENT 17.2. The spore capsule at the time of burst was approximated as a cylinder with a thin cylindrical cap attached to it. They were then placed inside a very large domain representing the air in which the expulsion was modeled. Due to the symmetry of our model about the central axis, we performed a 2D axisymmetric simulation. Also, due the complexity of the fluid domain as a result of the capsule-cap interface, as well as the need for a dynamic mesh for simulating the motion of the cap, first a mesh study was performed to generate an efficient mesh in order to make simulations computationally cost-effective. The domain was discretized using triangular elements and the mesh was refined at the capsule-cap interface to accurately capture the ring vortices formed by the expulsed cap. The dispersal was modeled using a transient simulation by setting a pressure difference between inside of the capsule and the surrounding atmospheric air. Pressure and vorticity contours were recorded at different time instances. Our simulation results were interpreted and compared to high-speed video data of sporophyte expulsions to deduce the pressure within the capsule upon dispersal, as well as the formation number of resulting vortex rings. Vorticity contours predicted by our model were in agreement with the experimental results. We hypothesized that the vortex rings from Sphagnum are sub-optimal since a slower vortex bubble would carry spores more effectively than a faster one.

Abstract:
Partimos de la pregunta “¿es la imagen o la dimensión estética de una obra, indisociable del discurso que sustenta?”, hecha por José A. Sánchez en la conferencia La imagen elocuente[1] (2014). Basándonos en esta cuestión, nos interesa analizar cómo la escenografía es capaz de asumir un papel protagonista en la dramaturgia de dos dispositivos escénicos del contexto contemporáneo. En este recorrido, la escenografía es entendida desde el concepto de narratividad, “que es el conjunto organizador de todo discurso” (Greimas y Courtés, 1990) y no una transcripción literal de la escena. En esta dirección, este estudio lo hacemos creando categorías “provisionales” que nos sitúen en la revisión de conceptos como: la palabra, el cuerpo, el espacio material y el discurso. Para ello, examinaremos la narratividad de la escenografía, comprobando si la visualidad de una obra invisibiliza la dramaturgia literaria de ésta o si el discurso narrativo transforma la dramaturgia visual. Para analizar estas nociones, tomamos como referentes las siguientes obras, porque transgreden el espacio material: Kingdom (2018) de la compañía Señor Serrano de Barcelona (España) y La Despedida (2017) del laboratorio Mapa Teatro de Bogotá (Colombia). Estos dispositivos escénicos, tienen formas concretas de producción y transforman el espacio material para que se vuelva protagonista de la puesta en escena, principalmente a través del lenguaje poético del live arts[2]. Esta transgresión de la dramaturgia visual y los discursos que sustentan, tienen un perfil político, porque sus creadores se comprometen con la actualidad social, transitando entre cambios conceptuales y formales para hablar de nuevas realidades. [1] Presentada en las Jornadas de Escenografía y plástica teatral en el Centro Dramático Nacional de Madrid. [2] El live arts es arte en vivo. Se refiere en este caso, al video en directo y en tiempo real.

Abstract:
The original working hypothesis of our proposal was that The “e” subunit of eIF3 has multiple functions from both within the nucleus and in the cytoplasm. Within this model, we further hypothesized that the “e” subunit of eIF3 functions in translation as a repressor. We proposed to test these hypotheses along the following specific aims: 1) Determine the subcellular localization of the interaction between eIF3e and other eIF3 subunits, or the COP9 signalosome. 2) Elucidate the biological significance of the varied subcellular localizations of eIF3e through generating Arabidopsis eIF3e alleles with altered subcellular localization. 3.) Purify different eIF3e complexes by tandem affinity purification (TAP). 4) Study the role of eIF3e in translational repression using both in vitro and in planta assays. eIF3 is an evolutionarily ancient and essential component of the translational apparatus in both the plant and animal kingdoms. eIF3 is the largest, and in some ways the most mysterious, of the translation factors. It is a multi-subunit protein complex that has a structural/scaffolding role in translation initiation. However, despite years of study, only recently have differential roles for eIF3 in the developmental regulation of translation been experimentally grounded. Furthermore, the roles of individual eIF3 subunits are not clear, and indeed some, such as the “e” subunit may have roles independent of translation initiation. The original three goals of the proposal were technically hampered by a finding that became evident during the course of the research – Any attempt to make transgenic plants that expressed eIF3e wt or eIF3e variants resulted in seedling lethality or seed inviability. That is, it was impossible to regenerate any transgenic plants that expressed eIF3e. We did manage to generate plants that expressed an inducible form of eIF3e. This also eventually led to lethality, but was very useful in elucidating the 4th goal of the research (Yahalom et al., 2008), where we showed, for the first time in any organism, that eIF3e has a repressory role in translation. In attempt to solve the expression problems, we also tried expression from the native promoter, and as such analyzed this promoter in transgenic plants (Epel, 2008). As such, several additional avenues were pursued. 1) We investigated protein-protein interactions of eIF3e (Paz-Aviram et al., 2008). 2) The results from goal #4 led to a novel hypothesis that the interaction of eIF3e and the CSN meets at the control of protein degradation of nascent proteins. In other words, that the block in translation seen in csn and eIF3e-overexpressing plants (Yahalom et al., 2008) leads to proteasome stress. Indeed we showed that both over expression of eIF3e and the csn mutants lead to the unfolded protein response. 3) We further investigated the role of an additional eIF3 subunit, eIF3h, in transalational regulation in the apical meristem (Zhou et al., 2009).
