Patricia Adair Gowaty

Patricia Adair Gowaty is an American evolutionary biologist. Gowaty is a professor emeritus at the University of Georgia and the University of California, Los Angeles.[1][2]

Life and career

She received her B.A. in biology at Tulane University and her PhD in zoology at Clemson University in 1980. She is currently a Distinguished Professor at the University of California, Los Angeles.[3]

Gowaty is known for her many articles about human and animal behavior and evolution. She is author and editor of a book that seeks to combine feminist theory and Darwinian evolutionary biology.[4] She has also written about the effects of and importance of rape in understanding human evolution.[5] Her recent research has focused on the concept of reproductive compensation in population genetics.[6][7]

In 2012 Gowaty and colleagues reported[8] a precise replication of Angus Bateman's classic experiment on sexual selection in Drosophila. The study showed that Bateman's methodology was flawed. Once these flaws are accounted for, the experimental data did not support his conclusions.[9]

Gowaty is married to biologist Stephen P. Hubbell, with whom she has co-authored many journal articles about ecology and evolutionary biology.[10]

Senyawa terner

Dalam kimia anorganik dan kimia material, senyawa terner atau fase terner adalah senyawa kimia yang mengandung tiga unsur berbeda. Beberapa senyawa terner bersifat molekuler, misalnya kloroform (HCCl3), sedangkan fase terner yang lebih khas mengacu pada padatan yang diperluas. Contoh terkenalnya adalah perovskit.[1] Fase biner, dengan hanya dua unsur, memiliki tingkat kompleksitas yang lebih rendah daripada fase terner. Dengan empat unsur, fase kuaterner menjadi lebih kompleks. Jumlah...
