No episódio do podcast apresentado por João Rocha e Laura Diniz, estudantes de biologia na UNICAMP, o foco é a relação entre alimentação e saúde mental. Os anfitriões exploram como as emoções são influenciadas não apenas por fatores externos, mas também por reações químicas no cérebro, particularmente a interação entre neurotransmissores e hormônios. Eles discutem a importância de aminoácidos, essenciais para a sintetização de proteínas e neurotransmissores como serotonina e dopamina, e como uma dieta balanceada pode melhorar o bem-estar emocional. O episódio destaca os perigos dos alimentos ultraprocessados, que podem desregular o sistema nervoso e estar associados a distúrbios emocionais, ...

Guia do professor desenvolvido pelo projeto EMBRIAO sobre o tema: Interdependência da vida. Este guia aborda os seguintes produtos: (Áudio): - Ciência em destaque: Antártida (Vídeos): - Energia: Fluxo de energia em diferentes organismos (Softwares): - Quebra-cabeça: teia alimentar - Sucessão ecológica - Fluxo de energia - Qual é a palavra? Interdependência da vida (Experimentos): - Construção e acompanhamento de terrário – aula 1 - Construção e acompanhamento de terrário – aula 2 - Construção e acompanhamento de terrário – aula 3

O objetivo específico do software é oferecer os conceitos fundamentais sobre o tema de modo simplificado, tornando-os acessíveis à maioria dos estudantes do ensino médio, possibilitando a aquisição de novos conhecimentos, a solução de dúvidas e, principalmente, o surgimento de novas questões sobre um tema que ainda tem muitos aspectos a serem explorados. O software tem a vantagem do recurso visual e do caráter dinâmico que facilitam o entendimento das reações que não são de fácil compreensão para todos os alunos. A informação é apresentada de diferentes maneiras: textos, esquemas, figuras e animações. O software apresenta conceitos básicos sobre a bioquímica e fisiologia humanas, ...

Nesse episódio falamos a respeito da importância da preservação dos tubarões, citamos fontes para maior conhecimento dos animais e incentivamos o público a não consumir e nem pescar tubarões.

13,5 cm. The male’s top of the head is black with a scarlet topknot. The body is red, with the upper parts brownish red. The female does not have a topknot and the upper parts are brown. Distribution: From the Guyanas to Argentina. Habitat: Secondary forests, cerrado and farms. Diet: Feeds on seeds and insects. Reproduction: When breeding lives in pairs and the male protects the territory. Builds a cup-like nest with leaves, lichens and spider webs. Lays 3 to 5 bluish or white eggs. Both male and female feed the offspring. Natural history: The male’s topknot can only be seen when it is excited. When not breeding lives in groups, sometimes mixing with other species. In dry ...

16 cm. The iris and a mask in the face are red. The top of the head and the wings are ferruginous. The sides of the head are gray and the belly brown. In some regions there may be yellow areas in the chest and throat Distribution: From Mexico to Argentina. Habitat: Forest borders, secondary and gallery forests, cerrado, caatinga, parks and gardens, usually in the canopy. Diet: Insects, their larvae and fruits Reproduction: The female builds most of the nest with grass. The nest is a deep open basket covered with moss and attached to the tree with spider webs. Male and female take turns to incubate the eggs and feed the offspring (2 or 3).

19 cm. The Variegated Flycatcher is one of 3 widespread flycatchers that are streaked below. The Variegated is larger than the Piratic Flycatcher (Legatus leucophaius), has a longer bill, more rufous on the tail and whiter edging to its wing feathers. On the other hand, it is smaller than the Streaked Flycatcher (Myiodynastes maculatus) with darker upperparts and less well defined streaking below. Distribution: Throughout South America, mainly in the south. Habitat: Lives in forest borders and open areas provided there are tall trees in which it can perch. Diet: Flying insects, insects in the foliage and sometimes small fruits. Reproduction: The couple takes care of each other’s...

15cm Identification: it is one of the largest hummingbirds. It is easily identified by the forked tail, reminding a pair of scissors. Unmistakably Brazilian’s best known hummingbird, this magnificent animal is also one of the most belligerent ones. It fiercely defends its territory – usually consisting of a flowering patch – against other birds, especially the bananaquit ( Coereba flaveola ). It sucks sweet water from feeders even if these are place in the interior of the houses, fearlessly entering the rooms. Like other hummingbirds it feeds mostly on nectar but also on insects. The female lays 2 or 3 eggs in a small bow-shaped nest and feeds the nestlings mainly with arthropods.

44 cm. The tail is long and there is a topknot. The ventral region is white. The wings are dark brown with black and white streaks. Distribution: From the state of Amapá to Uruguay. Habitat: Open fields, cerrado and caating, also in landscapes modified by man. Diet: Feeds on arthropods and small vertebrates. Reproduction: The nest may be individual or collective. It is built about 5m from the ground. The female lays up to 7 eggs, but there may be more than 20 eggs in collective nests. In the collective nests there is great competition for food among the hatchlings and few them survive. Natural history: When perched it waves its tail, swinging the body in a way that some peop...

36 cm. The legs and the beak are yellow. The tail is short and the wings are broad, with a somewhat rectangular shape when flying. The chest is light brown streaked in different colors and the upper parts are in shades of gray. The immature is brown and striated. The female is slightly larger than the male. Distribution: From Mexico to Argentina. Habitat: Inhabits cerrado, gallery and secondary forests, fields, farms and cities. Diet: Big insects, amphibians, small lizards , mammals and birds. Sometimes hunts perched bats. May follow groups of coatis or monkeys, catching animals displaced by their movements. Reproduction: The nest is a platform built on the top of tall trees....

11,5cm. Identification: there is no other Brazilian species like this bird, at least not in urban and disturbed areas. Formerly all the house wren populations ranging from Canada to Chile were considered as a single species, but after several studies the populations south to Mexico were renamed as the Tropical House Wren (Troglodytes musculus ). This hyperactive bird hops non-stop on the ground in search for the small invertebrates it feeds on, reminding a mouse (musculus = mouse ). It only perches to rest or to sing. Its song is very complex and melodic, like other well known members of the Troglodytidae family. It is famous for the breeding behavior, as this bird may nest in the mos...

11 cm. The body of the male is dark gray in the upper parts, with the face and anterior part of the throat black. The posterior part of the throat and the belly are white, as well as the spots on the sides of the head. The female is brown with the belly lighter. It is thinner than the female of the double collar seedeater Sporophila caerulescens, the tail is longer, the beak smaller with the inferior part buffy. The young individuals are also brown. Distribution: From Guianas to Argentina and Paraguay. In Brazil from the north to São Paulo, Mato Grosso and Goiás. Habitat: Grasslands, open fields, crops and secondary forest borders. Diet: Grains. Reproduction: The couple lives is...

32 cm. The body is green. There is a red and yellow area below the wings. There is a pale area around the eye. The male’s body and beak are stronger than the female’s. The beak is light brown in the immature individuals. Distribution: From the Guyanas to Argentina. Habitat: Forest borders, cerrado, woods and parks in cities. Diet: Feeds on buds, leaves, flowers, seeds, fruits and sometimes insects. Reproduction: Builds a nest inside holes in trees or rocks, witnessed by the author building a nest inside a hole in the old wall of a building. Lays three or four white eggs, incubated by the female that is fed by the male during this period. The couple feeds the brood. May learn some...
