  • Dig into the essential role that mitochondrial DNA played in the evolution of living things on Earth, and find out why it’s still evolving.
    --
    Inside our cells, each of us has a second set of genes completely separate from our 23 pairs of chromosomes. And this isn’t just true for humans- it’s true of every animal, plant, and fungus on Earth. This second genome belongs to our mitochondria, an organelle inside our cells. So why are they so different from anything else in our bodies? Devin Shuman explores the purpose of mitochondrial DNA.

      No, the mitochondria are considered "semiautonomous organelles", and are presumed to have been a cyanobacteria many, many years ago that lost many properties as they evolved with the host cell. Today, they are only considered organelles, but at some point, they were probably different and living.

      Some people get tripped up by semantics, I get it. The point is, this isn't GENETIC DNA, which is derived from the combination of your mother's and father's lineages. It is Mitochondrial DNA, which gets passed to you through your mother and her mother and all the way back, but it is not part of human reproduction and plays no part in human genetics.

    This links to the fact that female can trace their genetics through the mitochondrial DNA, due to the fact that they get this from their mother. Male genetics are traced via the Y - chromosome, because this is received from the father. This is how genetics is run and how you can trace your lineage . This is wild, Biology is wild.

      Partly true. Males can ALSO trace their mtdna as they inherit both a Y and X chromosomes. So males actually have the advantage of learning both their maternal and paternal lineages.

      I mean, Mother Nature pretty much runs its own course. We build our sciences around it. She doesn’t have any obligation to keep following the rules we have conjured up on our own accord. Not to say that our observations are incorrect, but they are not necessarily unchanging truths. There is a lot more to Mother Nature than we see or work with on a daily basis. ✨

      Hi there! To clarify, mitochondrial DNA is passed to you through your mother, but it’s not your parent’s (or even human) genes. It’s separate from the genetic DNA you inherit through a combination of your mother and father’s DNA. Hope this helps!

    • @DerSwaider

      @@TEDEd So its a question of definition, where you refer to the human genome as "genes you get from your parents" and mitochindria not being part of it? I get it, but still very counter intuitive. Guess i am just frustrated i didnt find what i was looking for. Love you vids though, really good quality!

    For those who are saying that the title is misleading, consider this.
    If I ask my friend to hand the love letter I made for my crush, you can say that the girl got it from me and not from my friend because he just served as a channel, i.e., the letter came from me, through my friend, then passed it to my crush.
