Father Nature : The Science of Paternal Potential
How and why human males evolved the capacity to be highly involved caregivers and why some are more involved than others. We all know the importance of mothers. They are typically as paramount in the wild as they are in human relationships.But what about fathers? In most mammals, including our closest living primate relatives, fathers have little to no involvement in raising their offspring and sometimes even kill the offspring sired by other fathers.How, then, can we explain modern fathers with the capacity to be highly engaged parents?In Father Nature, James Rilling explores how humans have evolved to endow modern fathers with this potential and considers why this capacity evolved in humans. Paternal caregiving is highly advantageous to children and, by extension, to society at large, yet highly variable both across and within human societies.Rilling considers how to explain this variability, and what social and policy changes might be implemented to increase positive paternal involvement.Along the way, Father Nature also covers the impact fathers have on children s development, the evolution of paternal caregiving, how natural selection adapted male physiology for caregiving, and finally, what lessons an expecting father can take away from the book, as well as what benefits they themselves get from raising children, including increased longevity and 'younger' brains. A beautifully written book by a father himself, Father Nature is a much needed and deeply rewarding look at the science behind 'good' paternal behavior in humans.

What is the membrane potential?
The membrane potential is the difference in electric charge between the inside and outside of a cell membrane. It is created by the unequal distribution of ions, such as sodium, potassium, chloride, and calcium, across the membrane. This difference in charge allows the cell to generate and transmit electrical signals, which are essential for processes such as nerve conduction, muscle contraction, and cell communication. The membrane potential is maintained by the activity of ion channels and pumps in the cell membrane.
-
How is the resting potential and membrane potential created?
The resting potential is created by the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane. This is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. The membrane potential is created by the separation of charges across the cell membrane, with the inside of the cell being more negatively charged compared to the outside. This is due to the presence of negatively charged proteins inside the cell and the movement of ions across the membrane.
-
What is the resting potential and the membrane potential?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. It is typically around -70 millivolts and is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane. The membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of the cell membrane, which is essential for the transmission of signals in neurons.
-
What is the difference between equilibrium potential, resting potential, and membrane potential?
Equilibrium potential is the membrane potential at which the net flow of a particular ion across the membrane is zero. Resting potential is the membrane potential of a cell when it is at rest, typically around -70 millivolts in neurons. Membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a cell, which is maintained by the selective permeability of the cell membrane to different ions. In summary, equilibrium potential is the potential at which there is no net flow of ions, resting potential is the potential of a cell at rest, and membrane potential is the overall potential across the cell membrane.

What is the difference between resting potential and membrane potential?
Resting potential refers to the membrane potential of a neuron when it is not being stimulated or sending signals. It is typically around -70 millivolts and represents the baseline electrical charge of the neuron. Membrane potential, on the other hand, refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a neuron's cell membrane at any given moment, including both resting and active states. In summary, resting potential is a specific type of membrane potential that represents the neuron's baseline electrical state when not actively transmitting signals.
-
How is the resting potential and the membrane potential formed?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. This potential is formed by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane, with more sodium ions outside the cell and more potassium ions inside the cell. The membrane potential is formed by the movement of these ions through ion channels in the membrane, which are selectively permeable to specific ions. The resting potential is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell, helping to maintain the concentration gradients of these ions.

What is the difference between resting membrane potential and equilibrium potential?
Resting membrane potential is the electrical charge difference across the plasma membrane of a cell when the cell is at rest. It is typically around -70 millivolts in neurons and is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane. On the other hand, equilibrium potential is the membrane potential at which the net movement of a particular ion across the membrane is zero. It is determined by the concentration gradient and the electrical gradient for a specific ion. While resting membrane potential is the overall charge across the membrane at rest, equilibrium potential is the specific potential at which a particular ion is balanced in its movement across the membrane.
-
How are stimulus intensity and membrane potential related?
Stimulus intensity and membrane potential are related in that the strength of a stimulus can directly affect the membrane potential of a cell. When a stimulus is applied to a cell, it can cause a change in the membrane potential, either depolarizing or hyperpolarizing the cell. The magnitude of the change in membrane potential is directly related to the intensity of the stimulus. A stronger stimulus will typically result in a larger change in membrane potential, while a weaker stimulus will result in a smaller change. This relationship between stimulus intensity and membrane potential is important for the transmission of signals in the nervous system and for the generation of action potentials.
