The study of conditions, processes, or results of diseases. Pathology also is used to refer to any abnormal physiological condition.
Industry:Anthropology
The study of biological inheritance patterns and changing gene pool frequencies in populations largely through the determination of allele frequencies. Population geneticists also identify processes resulting in evolution. See synthetic theory of evolution.
Industry:Anthropology
The study of annual growth-rings of trees, usually for the purpose of chronometric dating logs found in association with relatively recent archaeological sites. Tree-ring sequences also are used as records of cycles in local climates.

They exist in variable numbers and types but make up a very small part of human blood volume. Some leukocytes (i.e., lymphocytes) provide a physiological defense against infection. As a result, their numbers increase when the body is under attack by bacteria and viruses. Some other types of leukocytes (i.e., macrophages ) have the function of getting rid of old unneeded blood cells.
Industry:Anthropology
The study of ancient environments. See geochronology and palynology.

Industry:Anthropology
The stage of maturation in which animals are beyond infancy and early childhood but are not yet fully grown.
Industry:Anthropology
The species of humans that followed Homo habilis and preceded Homo sapiens in our line of evolution. Homo erectus evolved in East Africa by 1. 8 million years ago. They were the first humans to expand their range into Asia and Europe. By at least 400,000 years ago or even earlier in some areas, they were beginning a transitional evolutionary phase that would eventually lead to archaic humans. See Homo ergaster and Homo heidelbergensis.
Industry:Anthropology
The species designation given to the Neandertals by researchers who believe that these ancient people were genetically close enough to Homo sapiens to assign them to the same species but a different sub-species or variety. See Homo neanderthalensis.
