The Role of Age and Instruction in Children's Learning of Vocabulary and Grammar

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract It is generally assumed that children and adults learn language through fundamentally different mechanisms: Children predominantly rely on implicit learning, and adults utilize more explicit strategies (Lichtman, 2016). However, little is known about when and how learners begin to benefit from explicit instruction over the course of language ...

Visual Accommodation in the Green Turtle

Science, 1967
Ophthalmological and anatomical studies indicate that the Atlantic green turtle is extremely myopic when its eyes are out of water. This finding bears on current theories of visual orientation and navigation in these animals.

Purification of thyrotropin from the pituitaries of two turtles: The green sea turtle and the snapping turtle

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1981
Abstract The purification of thyrotropin from the pituitaries of two species of turtles was followed using a bioassay based on the uptake of radioiodide by the thyroid of the baby slider turtle, Pseudemys scripta . Conventional chromatographic techniques which had previously resulted in the separation of pituitary gonadotropins were used initially ...

Age prediction of green turtles with an epigenetic clock.

Molecular ecology resources, 2022
Age is a fundamental life history attribute that is used to understand the dynamics of wild animal populations. Unfortunately, most animals do not have a practical or nonlethal method to determine age. This makes it difficult for wildlife managers to carry out population assessments, particularly for elusive and long-lived fauna such as marine turtles.
