    13:12 “No one’s quite sure what the advantage of what blue eyes might be”

    I have a guess…

    There is nothing I love more than listening to someone educate me about their expertise. So appreciated!

    Loooove this scientist. Great ambassador: excitement, amazing communicator, and his personal passion shines through. How do you find these wonderful people? More please!

    There was no critical moment when fish move on to land. It was a gradual change in form over generations. These generations gradually spent more time out of the water. Emphasis on gradual.

    At 2:14 you see him look behind the camera to for the script i am assuming. I thought they were asked directly for some reason hah

  8. Ishan Patel

    November 26, 2021 at 12:24 am

    Maybe because blue eyes are more attractive.

    Poor Christians. Living in denial and unable to enjoy the true beauty of learning.

  13. David Lorin

    November 26, 2021 at 12:42 am

    Blue eyes have persisted because they are attractive (subjective). Definitely an attribute to procreation.

  14. Denis Evlogiev

    November 26, 2021 at 12:55 am

    bioethics is for cowards, “should we create catpeople?” yes, “should we create bunnypeople?” yes, “should we create foxpeople?” stupid question, fox people would only improve everything

    I love this guy, you can see how much he genuinely loves his job and answering these questions! It makes me excited to learn and enjoy listening. He’d be the most perfect of teachers

  24. michele lopez

    I clicked because he was holding a THICC crewmate on the tumbnail

  27. Inferis

    November 26, 2021 at 10:03 pm

    I’m pretty sure he won1t see this, but I think blue eyes have only one advantage, we usually find them attractive, thus we have a higher chance of reproducing it

  28. Sarcast

    November 26, 2021 at 10:05 pm

    So if life requires cells plural, how can one cell be living?

    • Rick Kwitkoski

      November 26, 2021 at 11:47 pm

      No. Life doesn’t require “cells”, plural, to be alive. There are many organisms that are single-celled. The most commonly known domain of such are bacteria.

  37. ashtwenty12

    November 26, 2021 at 11:17 pm

    Question. What determines the difference between a spicies, and a breed. Different animals can appear so similar, but can’t reproduce.

    • Rick Kwitkoski

      November 26, 2021 at 11:45 pm

      A definition of species is an interbreeding group of organisms, or at least, they have the ability to interbreed if they met up. In this case, they might be called sub-species instead.
      A “breed” is an artificially created group of a particular organism. A group that was created by humans interfered with WHICH organism would breed with which other one.

      However, in ALL cases, the slotting of any organism into a particular group, genus, family, order, class etc. etc. is purely artificial and only for the benefit of humans.

    Even if I am a Biologist and already knew all the answers it was a ton of fun. Actually I did not know about the biggest seed in the world, the double coconut, I wish I could see it in person one day. It would be nice to have more Biology Support.

  40. Gabrielle Dennis

    November 27, 2021 at 12:07 am

    I’m definitely not as much as a seasoned expert as this man, but I do study wildlife biology for a living. If anyone wants to ask me questions in the comments about animals, feel free.

    WOW More Thor Hanson!!! he was engaging, charismatic and I’d love to have him over to talk about stuff with friends. Teachers in school need to be more like this, get the kids thinking!!

    November 27, 2021 at 1:19 am

    Probably the best entry in the “tech support” series. This guy is excellent! He needs his own youtube channel or TV gig! Great personality, clearly passionate, and what a name! THOR

    the “af” part HES SO FUNNY LOVE THIS GUY

  55. Seti Michael Maxwell

    November 27, 2021 at 10:41 pm

    Speaking of bioethics, I wonder if we can invent a deadly virus and just accidentally release it in the human population to test how far it would go? I know it sounds kind of bad, but maybe the humans will build immunity to it after a few decades.

    • Pal n PWN

      November 27, 2021 at 11:03 pm

      Depends on the virus. If it kills you instantly you probably won’t be able to build immunity to it. Same if it has an insane mutation rate. But with viruses like chicken pox, most humans already have built immunity to it.

  56. Seti Michael Maxwell

    November 27, 2021 at 10:42 pm

    I’ve never understand things developing into existence just because it needed too.

  57. Rob Larssen

    November 27, 2021 at 10:52 pm

    very informative video, but your explanation of CRISPR is not quite correct. The real advantage of CRISPR is that new genes can be introduced into the genome, not just turning existing genes on and off, so I think that question at 8:52 was actually asking, can we engineer a resistance gene and add it to the banana plants

  58. Marco Montalto Monella

    November 27, 2021 at 10:55 pm

    “Somewhat recently…” in evolutionary terms? 😁

  59. GORETTI Ukuza

  64. Maria Bou

    November 27, 2021 at 11:37 pm

    wow so most people whose whole job is to study life agree that an organism that can reproduce itself and responds to it’s environment is the definition of life! very cool, very (literally) pro-life ☺️

    Yeaaah straight off the rip,ima stick with Creation

  74. Sweating alex

    November 28, 2021 at 10:07 pm

    i have a question, is evolution basically just slight changes over a long period of time with natural selection

    • Dr. Zoidberg

      November 28, 2021 at 11:52 pm

      Yeah. Imagine a pair of rabbits having 10 babies. Each baby rabbit will inherit a slightly different mix of its parents genes, & some may have genetic mutations that add even more variety… all of this is basically just chance.

      But after that, the genes inherited by each of these babies will contribute to their ability to survive & pass on their own genes. Perhaps they live in a very snowy alpine region, so white fur will give them an advantage over their brown furred sibling. Alternatively, maybe they live in a desert where the brown fur would be better. You could say the same for any other kind of trait… maybe their environment favors not hopping as high or maybe being a stronger swimmer is particularly valuable, etc. That’s the “natural selection” process.

      So, over many generations these small changes compound & eventually, two groups of rabbits with different evolutionary pressures will become different enough that they will become entirely different species. Over VERY long periods of time, this is how we’ve gotten the vast diversity of life we see on this planet.

  75. Grace Huang

    Fun-jiy?????? It took one man to convince me that we have ALL been saying fungi wrong

    • Dr. Zoidberg

      November 28, 2021 at 11:41 pm

      No, not all. It’s one of those words with multiple commonly accepted pronunciations. Some say it his way, others say it your way. It might be regionally specific, but idk about that.

    I thought people yawn because the brain needed more oxygen or smth. But if that’s not the case, a theory that I wanna put out there (original, at least I think it is), is that yawning is basically stretching. Maybe a particular muscle in our body that we need to breathe with needed to stretch(?) the diaphragm or maybe just our jaw. Let me know what y’all think. It’s pretty far fetched, but then again it’s just a theory.

    Ok. @thorhanson your canter, pace, enunciation, quiet emphasis and passion make your voice incredible and I really want you to start reading books on audible in your free time. I would listen to every one, even if the material/subject matter was irrelevant to my life/interest. I am seriously crushing on your voice, prof.

    Not all human beings are unique. Homozigotic twins share the same DNA. Of course environment and fenotipc expression might create differences, but to say that every human beign has a unique genome is simply not true.

    We definitely know why we’re yawning, or at least I was taught in Polemology class that it was a reflex dating thousands of years, the purpose of which was to bring as much oxygen as possible to your brain so you would stay alert and not fall asleep while mounting guard at night and protecting your tribe.
