The Causinae, commonly known as the "night adders", are a subfamily of venomous vipers found in sub-Saharan Africa.
The family is monotypic, since it only has the genus Causus.
The night adders can grow to around 60 to 90 centimeters (24 to 36 in) long.
They are usually dark gray, light gray, light brown, or black in color with gray or black blotches.
Even though they are called the night adders, they are usually active at day, but some are active at night.
When they are attacked or disturbed, they usually coil up and start hissing at their enemy to scare it off.
Some may raise their head and neck off the ground, and with their tongue sticking out, move froward like a the Cobra does.
All night adders are oviparous, which means they lay eggs.
This is unusual for most vipers, because most vipers are viviparous, they give live birth.
They lay around two dozen eggs at a time.
These eggs take around four months to hatch, when they hatch the hatchlings are 4-5 inches (10-12.5 cm) long.
The night adders have very big venom glands, which are around 10 centimeters long.
But even though the venom glands are big, the adders don't always use their venom on their prey.
The venom would kill the prey fast enough, but they usually seize their prey and swallow it.
When someone is bitten by a night adder, the venom does not spread around the body, and only causes swelling in the place of the bite.
There have been no reports of deaths by night adder venom.
Two-striped night adder, C. bilineatus
Snouted night adder, C. defilippii
Lichtenstein's night adder, C. lichtensteinii
West African night adder, C. maculatus
Green night adder, C. resimus
Common night adder, C. rhombeatus
The common night adder can grow up to around 60 centimeters (24 in) long, making it the longest species of the genus Causus.
The longest ever recorded was a male found in eastern Zimbabwe which was 93 centimeters (around 37 in) long.
They are usually olive green, brown, or grayish-brown in color with black rhombic-shaped blotches, but not all have blotches on them.
The common night adder is a fairly fast species of snake; it can move at the speed of 3.3 km per hour.
They are usually found on the ground, but they can climb trees and can swim.
They are mainly nocturnal, but some have been seen basking in the early morning or late afternoon.
When disturbed they coil up, inflate their body (which makes the black blotches on them stand out), and start hissing loudly.
Common night adders are oviparous, meaning that they lay eggs, while other vipers are usually viviparous, meaning that they give live birth.
Females lay around two dozen eggs at a time, which take around four months to hatch.
Once hatched, the young are 10 to 12.5 cm long and eat small frogs and toads.
Polystyrene is a form of chemical compound that is mainly used for a wide variety of packaging.
It is an aromatic polymer made from the monomer styrene, a liquid hydrocarbon that is  manufactured from petroleum by the chemical industry.
Polystyrene is one of the most widely used plastics, the scale being several billion kilograms per year.
Allometry is the study of the relationship of body size to shape.
In particular, it refers to the rate of growth of one part of the body compared to other parts.
In most cases, the relative size of body parts changes as the body grows.
Most allometric relationships are adaptive.
For example, organs which depend on their surface area (such as the intestine) grow faster as the body weight increases.
Also, there are changes in allometry as a clade evolves.
Allometry is an important way to describe changes in gross morphology (body shape) during evolution.
Changes in time of development in an evolutionary series or clade are very common.
The trend is known as heterochrony.
Allometry was first outlined by Otto Snell in 1892, D'Arcy Thompson in 1917, and Julian Huxley in 1932.
The relationship between two measured quantities is often expressed as a power law:
or in a logarithmic form:
where  is the scaling exponent of the law.
On being the right size
JBS Haldane's 1926 essay On being the right size gives an overview of the way size interacts with body structure.
Haldane's thesis is that sheer size very often defines what bodily equipment an animal must have:
"Insects, being so small, do not have oxygen-carrying bloodstreams.
What little oxygen their cells require can be absorbed by simple diffusion of air through their bodies.
But being larger means an animal must take on complicated oxygen pumping and distributing systems to reach all the cells".
Many of his examples are based on the square-cube law.
If an animal's length is doubled, its surface area will be squared and its weight cubed.
This alone causes allometric changes in any evolutionary lineage where successive species get larger of smaller.
There are many such lineages.

Lake Mackay (Pintupi: Wilkinkarra) is a large salt lake in central Australia.
It stretches across the border between Western Australia and the Northern Territory.
All around it is desert.
The Great Sandy Desert is to the northwest, the Tanami Desert is to the northeast, and the Gibson Desert is to the south.
There are hundreds of salt lakes along this border area, and Lake Mackay is the largest.
It has a surface area of , and is about  long from east to west and north to south.
It is the second-largest lake in Australia.
The lake was named after the first European to visit it, Donald George Mackay.
The lake is most often dry, because of quick evaporation.
Salt and other minerals float on the surface.
Lake Mackay is a central place in dreamtime stories for several Aboriginal groups, especially the Pintupi.
The lake forms the centre of the Pintupi ancestral lands.
Many sacred paths and tracks come together at the shores of the lake.
According to mythology, the lake was formed after a fierce bushfire that ruined the land around it.
Papunya is a small community in central Australia.
It is about  northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.
The people who live there are Aboriginal people who were forced off their traditional country during the 1930s and 1940s.

In the 2006 census, Papunya had a population of 299.
The town is now on private Aboriginal land.
People visiting or travelling through need a permit.
During the late 1950s, a Lutheran mission was set up at Papunya.
In the 1970s, many of the people living here moved back to their homelands as part of the outstation movement.
The Pintupi moved back west, closer to their homeland around Lake Mackay.
They set up the town of Kintore in 1981, about  west of Papunya.
During this time, local painters were slowly forming a new style of art.
By the mid-1980s, it became internationally known as Papunya Tula.

It is about  west of Alice Springs and close to the border with Western Australia.
Almost all the people who live there are Aboriginal, and most are Pintupi.

Many Pintupi people who lived in the community of Papunya (to the east) decided to move back to their own country.
They had been forced to leave these lands decades before because of weapons testing at Woomera in South Australia.
Kintore is a major centre for the Western Desert art movement, which began at Papunya during the 1970s.
The paintings made here are visual descriptions of dreamtime stories.
They have gained fame around the world.
A number of members of the Aboriginal art school Papunya Tula live at Kintore.
