<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 7, 2012) Turtles breathe backwards; that is, when they relax their diaphragms, they inhale rather than exhale.

<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 29, 2012) Some people claim immunity from tickling, and no one seems to be able to tickle themselves. The ribs, underarms and feet are the most effective tickle targets. Dr. Curt Stager and Martha Foley continue their discussion with the anatomy of tickling.

<description><![CDATA[ (Feb 16, 2012) We think of evolution as moving in a linear progression from the sea to the land. But some creatures, such as whales and dolphins, clearly adapted to the land, then returned to the sea. Dr. Curt Stager and Martha Foley talk about convergent evolution.

<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 29, 2011) The old school biology map of the tongue, with discrete areas sensing salt, sweet, etc., has been replaced by a more complex picture where the brain averages out chemical reports that vary in accuracy and intensity from many different taste buds. Dr. Curt Stager and Martha Foley savor the nuances of sensory perception.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 17, 2010) From worms to whales, most creatures have hearts. In the worm it&apos;s a simple tube, in the whale it can pump 60 gallons of blood per minute.

<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 15, 2009) From the bones of their fins to the free-floating and functionless pelvis, the bodies of cetaceans show clear signs of having once lived on land. Why go back to the sea? Dr Curt Stager and Martha Foley examine the tale of the whale.

<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 14, 2004) Does brain size matter? And does absolute size matter, or size related to body weight.

<title>Natural Selections: Right Face, Left Face</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/4806/20040930/natural-selections-right-face-left-face</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 30, 2004) Most faces are slightly, but noticeably asymetrical. Dr. Curt Stager and Martha Foley talk about two studies that highlight the differences: one that shows how one nostril takes in more air than the other (switching off every couple of hours), and one looking at which side of the face people present to the camera for different kinds of portraits.
