There are thousands of different species of sea anemones in the ocean with some living as far deep as 32,000 feet. Anemones are marine invertebrates that are closely related to jellyfish. This ...

Learn how mapping gene-control switches in an ancient sea anemone reveals how identical DNA can produce many different cell ...

A pink sea anemone that “builds a home” for hermit crabs has been discovered. The find, in seas off Japan, is a rare example of "co-evolution" in the ocean depths, say scientists. Researchers from ...

Scientists found a new sea anemone species off Japan's coast. This anemone, named Paracalliactis tsukisome, builds shell-like homes for hermit crabs. The anemone gets stability and mobility. The crab ...

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

Some animals, such as the starlet sea anemone, can regenerate large parts of their body, even after major injuries. Researchers have shown this regeneration response involves cells and molecules in ...

One of the biggest quests in biology is understanding how every cell in an animal's body carries an identical genome yet ...

Researchers employed interdisciplinary approaches to show how sea anemone 'exercise' changes their developing size and shape, uncovering an intimate relationship between behavior and body development.

A newly described anemone species has been found off the coast of Japan and appears to live exclusively on the shells of one hermit crab species. First-of-its-kind video recordings of the hermit crab ...

Native to the northern hemisphere, plumose anemones have spread across Chilean Patagonia. Scientists estimate that it was likely introduced in the late 20th century via ship ballast water. The exotic ...

Our bodies are remarkably skilled at adapting to changing environments. For example, whether amid summer heat or a winter freeze, our internal temperature remains steady at 37°C, thanks to a process ...
