Fish fins are touch sensors, and they work in a way that’s similar to our fingertips. According to new findings published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, the pectoral fins located behind the ...
A few hundred million years ago, fish fins morphed into the arms and legs of terrestrial animals, according to evolutionary theory. So, you’d think science would know just about everything about them ...
The human fingertip is a finely tuned sensory machine, and even slight touches convey a great deal of information about our physical environment. It turns out, some fish use their pectoral fins in ...
New research finds some fishes' fins are as sensitive as the primates' fingertips, reports Carolyn Wilke of Science News. “We think about primates as kind of special in the sense that we have really ...
