Beautifully preserved fossil ammonite collected from 165-million-year-old Jurassic site in Gloucestershire, UK; 3D reconstruction of combined neutron and X-ray images of fossil shows internal muscles ...
The muscles and organs of an ammonite — an extinct relative of cuttlefish and squid with coiled shells and tentacles — have been reconstructed in 3D for the first time. The achievement has allowed a ...
There's rarely time to write about every cool science-y story that comes our way. So this year, we're once again running a special Twelve Days of Christmas series of posts, highlighting one science ...
Ammonites are a tale of two textures. The prehistoric cephalopods were composed of fleshy soft tissue (the living bit of the animals) and hard external shells, which, according to a paper published ...
Researchers have revealed the soft tissues of a 165-million-year-old ammonite fossil using 3D imaging. They found that the now-extinct molluscs sported hyponomes: tube-like syphons through which water ...
They found that the now-extinct molluscs sported hyponomes: tube-like syphons through which water is expelled to jet propel animals forward in water, as found in modern squid and octopuses. They also ...
