The Adaja is a river of Spain located in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula, a major left-bank tributary of the Douro.[1] Featuring a total length of 163 km, its river basin drains an area of 5,328 km2.[2]

It has its source in the so-called Fuente Berroqueña (Villatoro, province of Ávila), near the saddle point between La Serrota [es] and the Sierra de Ávila.[2] Initially following a Southwest-Northeast course through the Amblés Valley, the Adaja bends towards the North in Ávila. It receives the contribution of its most important tributary, the Eresma, near Matapozuelos,[3] emptying in the Douro in the province of Valladolid near the town of Aniago.[4]

Exaptation

Function of trait, shifted by evolution Exaptation and the related term co-option describe a shift in the function of a trait during evolution. For example, a trait can evolve because it served one particular function, but subsequently it may come to serve another. Exaptations are common in both anatomy and behaviour. Bird feathers are a classic example. Initially they may have evolved for temperature regulation, but later were adapted for flight. When feathers were first used to aid in fligh...
