Whose baby are you?

Article Abstract:

A study matching babies to their parents based on looks found that one-year-olds of either sex could be linked to their fathers but otherwise parents could not be selected from a group based on features. This resemblance in one-year-olds may be an evolutionary characteristic to promote parental investment while the features distinguishing an adult female face may be harder to detect than those of an adult male in a babies undeveloped face.

Adaptation to natural facial categories

Article Abstract:

The results of prior research indicate that the appearance of the face can be biased strongly after viewing an altered image of the face, thus affecting the responses of individuals. The adaptation effects generally created for natural variations in faces and categorical judgements about faces, suggest that it may influence perception in routine face viewing.

Transmission of devil facial-tumour disease

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to show that the chromosomes in the malignant oral-tumour have undergone a complex rearrangement that is identical for animal study. The results revealed that the disease is transmitted by allograft, whereby an infectious cell line is passed directly between the animals through bites they inflict on each other.
