  • New Tardigrade Species Hypsibius henanensis Reveals Unique Radiation Survival Mechanisms
    Written by Gadgets 360 Staff | Monday October 28, 2024
    Chinese biologists have discovered how a newly found tardigrade species, Hypsibius henanensis, can endure extreme radiation levels. Researchers identified three unique mechanisms that support this resilience: a TRID1 protein enabling DNA repair, mitochondrial proteins that enhance cellular defense, and high antioxidant production. This discovery en...

  • Strange Fish Species Might Be Able to Taste Using Its Crab-Like Legs, Study Claims
    Written by Gadgets 360 Staff | Sunday September 29, 2024
    The northern sea robin (Prionotus carolinus) is an intriguing marine species known for its remarkable adaptations. Unlike most fish, this species employs its six leg-like appendages to navigate the ocean floor. This ability allows it not only to move but also to explore the sea bed in search of food. While this capability was long known in the scie...
