For example, DNA is packaged in the nucleus in a highly specific way, but researchers are still trying to understand how this happens.

They move in concert without any one fish leading the way. Instead, their coordinated movements arise from individual fish continually adjusting their movements based on their neighbors…Global change may alter how ocellated lizards move between shelters, food and predatorsGlobal change is also affecting the behavior and mobility of the ocellated lizard, a reptile typical of Mediterranean ecosystems.
