But in impoverished environments they join together to produce spores, and in their collective state they can move relatively fast, sensing light and warmth as guides to food supplies.

The energy task force found that cleaning crews often didn't flip the switch after finishing their work, so Verizon has started to install motion-sensing lights that go dark when rooms are empty.

Reptiles and amphibians sense light via a third parietal eye a structure associated with the pineal gland which serves to regulate their circadian rhythms, and for navigation, as it can sense the polarization of light.

In addition to public education and discounts on energy-saving " smart " powerstrips and occupancy-sensing light switches, the program offers free technical assistance and in some cases incentive payments to companies enabling power management for Energy Star monitors.

Two kinds of eyes rule in the animal kingdom : directional eyes, which only sense light and belong to worms and other bitty creatures, and image-forming eyes, found in certain mollusks, bivalves, most arthropods and nearly all vertebrates.
26.
For example, the human eye uses four genes to make structures that sense light : three for cone cell or color vision and one for rod cell or night vision; all four arose from a single ancestral gene.

The College of Engineering s Nano Tech Center has received approximately $ 20 million in grants toward its work in applied nanophotonics, the creation and manipulation of advanced materials at the nanoscale that can produce and sense light.

To begin with, biologists theorize, a pigment has to sense light and transmit that signal to a clock, which in turn oscillates in a 24-hour cycle, and which in turn controls other genes that establish rhythms throughout the organism.
29.
Most options for the SHO remain available with the Performance Package including options such as Power Moonroof, Heated / Cooled Seats, Multi-Contour Seats, Auto-Sensing Lights and Wipers, Automatic High-Beams, Adjustable Pedals, Blind Spot Information System ( BLIS ), and Satellite Navigation.

Scientists at The Schepens Eye Research Institute showed in a new report that older people who have more pigment in the retina's macula _ a spot about the size of a pencil eraser _ can sense light as well as younger people.
