using drones to attack enemy targets violates every law of war.

even though drone operators frequently have strong doubts about a target’s validity, in most cases they attack anyway.

since drone operators are anonymous, they should not be allowed to use the concept of “imminent threat” as a basis for lethal action.

in cases where innocent people have been unnecessary victims of drone attacks, the U.S. government has never admitted its guilt.

every terrorist captured and judged by the U.S. government has been illegally executed.

One should not attack and kill an enemy that no longer represents a lethal threat.

Depending on the circumstances, it is not morally wrong to kill someone because of his or her past conduct.

In general, assassinations and executions are carried out in similar situations and for similar reasons.

The only thing that assassination and killing in self-defence have in common is that they both lead to someone’s death.

Execution and assassination differ from killing in self-defence in that they are premeditated, rather than spontaneous, acts.

It is the duty of a national government to use the military as the first line of defence against a foreign attack.

Just as an individual may kill in self-defence, so too may a country, through its armed forces, kill in self-defence.

In the case of an extreme national emergency, the military may suspend the right to life.

Society as a whole must determine the seriousness of an external threat before the military can be used against that threat.

An individual has the right to kill only if he or she is confronting a lethal threat.

slipper limpets neither give nor receive chemical messages.

at birth, all slipper limpets are male.

large slipper limpets are often female.

although slipper limpets are essentially stationary, some of them find a way to make physical contact with one another.

if slipper limpets did not grow, they could not reproduce.

Male slipper limpets of differing sizes were placed in cups of differing sizes.

Some pairs of male slipper limpets were prevented from making any kind of physical contact with each other.

Some pairs of male slipper limpets were placed in small cups and some were placed in large cups.

Only certain pairs of male slipper limpets were allowed to use the same water.

Rachel Collin and Allan Carrillo-Baltodano were more interested in the results of physical contact between male slipper limpets than in the results of nonphysical contact.

Female slipper limpets have no influence on a male slipper limpet’s sexual transition.

If male slipper limpets do not make direct physical contact with one another, they cannot transition into females.

In one way, large male slipper limpets and small male slipper limpets react differently to another male slipper limpet’s touch.

A large male slipper limpet’s reaction is strongest when another male slipper limpet contacts it both physically and chemically.

Without physical contact among male and female slipper limpets, neither growth nor sexual reproduction will occur.

slipper limpets spend most of their lives stationary and filter-feeding.

larger slipper limpets react differently to physical touch and chemical messages than do smaller slipper limpets.

chemical messages carried through water inhibit rather than encourage the growth and sexual transition of male slipper limpets.

in rare cases, physical contact with another slipper limpet may cause a female slipper limpet to transition into a male.

the start of a slipper limpet’s transition from male to female is influenced by another slipper limpet’s physical contact and not by chemical messages carried through the water.

the reproductive process of slipper limpets is different from that of all other kinds of sea snails.

among slipper limpets, large males and small females are the main participants in the reproductive process.

small slipper limpets produce sperm and eggs more efficiently than do large slipper limpets.

the continued growth of a slipper limpet will eventually change the way it participates in the reproductive process.

the growth and size of a slipper limpet is fundamental in determining whether it changes from male to female or from female to male.

number of slipper limpets in any group and how that number can increase or retard the growth of individual slipper limpets.

fact that the proximity of other slipper limpets can directly affect a male slipper limpet’s radical change in sexual characteristics.

fact that, when isolated, slipper limpets grow slowly and do not change their sexual characteristics.

fact that a large group of slipper limpets grows and changes its sexual characteristics more quickly than does a small group of slipper limpets.

fact that a slipper limpet’s development of male or female sexual characteristics depends on the proximity of other slipper limpets.

What exactly does one slipper limpet do that affects another slipper limpet’s transition from one sex to another?

How close must two slipper limpets be to each other for sexual reproduction to take place?

Since any slipper limpet can simultaneously be both male and female, can sexual reproduction take place without the presence of another slipper limpet?

How did the slipper limpet evolve into an animal that can change its sex from male to female?

If two male slipper limpets are close to each other, why does only one of them make the transition into a female?

Its venom will pass through a series of relatively quick modifications in order to achieve a toxicity level effective for the new environment.

Darwinian selection applies not only to the evolution of certain venomproducing animals but also to the evolution of the targets of that venom.

Their venoms are generally less potent than those of the newer animal groups.

Their venoms are generally purer and more concentrated than those of the newer animal groups.

Of those snake species classified as members of the older animal groups, very few produce venoms.

focused on snakes and cone snails because those animals are widely available for scientific research.

A huge number of people in Germany hate her because of her liberal political views.

She is one of the few German politicians who still publicly support the country’s liberal refugee policy.
