Parent topics
- Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
- Evolutionary biology [r]: The study of the origin and descent of species, as well as their change, multiplication, and diversity over time. [e]
Subtopics
- Encephalisation quotient [r]: An empirical measure relating brain size and body mass across species, often taken as a proxy for the relative intelligence of a species. [e]
- Bionics [r]: The application of biological principles in technical design. [e]
- Biophysics [r]: The study of forces and energies in biological systems. [e]
- Brain evolution [r]: The process by which the central nervous system changed over many generations. [e]
- Brain morphometry [r]: The quantitative study of structures in the brain, their differences between individuals, correlations with brain function, and changes of these characteristics over time. [e]
- Body size [r]: An umbrella term for various measures of how big an animal is. [e]
- Brain size [r]: Umbrella term for various measures of how big a brain is. [e]
- Cortical thickness [r]: The combined thickness of the cerebral cortex layers. [e]
- Gyrification [r]: The folding process during brain development, or the extent of folding. [e]
- Human uniqueness [r]: A theoretical concept in evolutionary studies, often used in discussions about the evolution of biological traits found in humans. [e]
- Metabolism [r]: The modification of chemical substances by living organisms. [e]
- Neocortex [r]: The six-layered outer layer of the mammalian brain. [e]
- Power law [r]: A mathematical relationship between two quantities where one is proportional to a power of the other: that is, of the form where and are constants, with being referred to as the exponent. [e]
- Theoretical biology [r]: The study of biological systems by theoretical means. [e]
