A team of scientists with the Sea Mammal Research Unit, School of Biology, University of St Andrews, in the U.K. has found ...

A team of scientists have elucidated an ancient mechanism of cellular respiration. To that end, they studied bacteria that feed on the gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and turn them into acetic acid ...

Marine mammals can hold their breath for extended periods underwater; the question is, how do they know when it's time to resurface?

Ancient microbes illustrate a particular kind of respiration in which carbon dioxide and hydrogen are combined to form acetic ...

As seals dive more frequently—and for longer—than humans do, the range of carbon dioxide in their bodies varies more widely.

The seals’ ability to detect the amount of oxygen in their blood may help them make diving decisions and avoid drowning.

That process, called carbon fixation, resulted in the assembly of two three-carbon molecules called 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA ...

Hycean worlds, which are a possible kind of exoplanet with deep oceans surrounded by a thick envelope of hydrogen, could ...

The sea mammals may actually be able to sense the amount of oxygen in their blood—something we humans can't do.

Kevin Ely and Jael Malenke are the husband-and-wife team that run the brewery — Ely handles the beer and Malenke manages the ...

World-renowned Greek astrophysicist Stamatios Krimigis says that a human settlement on Mars is a distant dream.
