Heat stress is a big problem for chickens, especially their guts. Scientists wanted to see if zinc could help. They did two experiments using tiny pieces of chicken intestines, called organoids. In the first experiment, they put these organoids in different temperatures. One group was at normal tem
Climate change is making our oceans hotter. This is bad news for bivalve mollusks like mussels and clams. They are struggling to cope with these new conditions. Scientists wanted to see how these creatures manage their energy when temperatures rise. They looked at two types: the Mediterranean musse
Climate change is making summers harsher. This is bad news for razor clams. They are dying in large numbers due to the extreme heat. So, scientists wanted to find out which razor clams can handle the heat best. They looked at two groups of razor clams. These groups live in the same area but come fro
Kelp forests are under threat from rising ocean temperatures. These underwater forests are crucial for marine life and the health of our oceans. But how do they cope with the heat? It turns out that tiny microbes play a big role in helping kelp survive. These microbes live on kelp and help it grow a
Mauritia flexuosa, a palm tree native to South America, has seeds that are particularly sensitive to dryness. These seeds, known as recalcitrant seeds, are vulnerable to environmental changes, especially temperature shifts. This is a big deal because climate change is making temperatures rise. So, u
