lizard families (Downes & Shine, 2001). The most common form of autotomy in this order is caudal autotomy, relating to the tail. What has possibly made this adaptation so advantageous is the ability of many lizard species to regenerate their tail after autotomy.

The loss of a

In addition, the effects of critical rollover angle on dynamic rollover and factors influencing dynamic rollover are also discussed

People love patterns and order, so we create societies, institutions
