      @buddha5446 Před 3 lety

      @Larry Trimble One example would the reconstructed lineage of whale evolution. Not only are there multiple transitional fossils for this sequence, but whales' also have turned off genes for teeth (coincides with the fossils), and vestigial hip bones that have been documented to also become atavisms. And before you say it, vestigial traits can still have a function while being vestigial. It's called being co-opted for a new function.
      Now, think you can tell me the basic definition of biological evolution?

      1.) I asked for the definition of biological evolution evolution.
      2.) The evolution part is not pure conjecture, because it's based off of accurate predictions (whales having vestigial traits and transitional fossils). It was also deduced by knowing the progression of the fossil record.
      3.) Your question is a question about abiogenesis, not biological evolution.
      It's pretty clear you have no understanding of this subject.

      The school I attended in the Bible Belt state of Mississippi never mentioned the evolution of Homo sapiens from hominin ancestors. My introduction to evolution came while browsing my grandmother's encyclopedia collection. I even remember an incident in 5th grade where I had called someone a Homo sapien, only to be called to the principal's office to explain what I meant by the term. And here we are in the year 2022 and Republicans are still trying to push their pathetic superstitious Bronze Age nonsense in public schools.

    Another comment regarding fire. I saw an interview recently with a scientist who wrote a book on just this subject. Observing chimps it was noted how much time they spent looking for food. He contends that cooking was a huge advance for the following reasons. Cooking so greatly aids digestion that it vastly reduces the amount of food required. This not only reduces malnourishment but frees up 6-8 hours per day for other purposes such as art and invention. Cooking, as you said, aids in digestion whether the food is animal or vegetable.

    Thank you so much for this documentary. I love to see those images from old forgotten books. Music is reflective too.
    One (possible) correction: I've talked about Neanderthals several times with a friend who is a doctor in epigenetics, in Germany. He pointed out that Neanderthals got extinct not due to armed conflicts with Homo Sapiens, but because of their immune system, which seemed to be much less adapted to viral mutations of the time than that of Sapiens. Thus, during the interbreeding phase Sapiens passed on tons of viruses that were harmless to them but lethal for Neanderthals. An interesting recent finding is that humans with large amounts Neanderthal DNA are those more prone to severe cases of Covid-19 (including death) and other modern viruses.

      @kim burley - We all have that question, and the answer (for me) was surprising-that ‘transition’ from animal to human is still going on-one generation after another. There was never, ‘The’ First Man, no First Woman, and no Garden of Eden, just a super ‘slow’ change from one generation to the next. And, here we are, in this the 21st-century, whatever that is. When was ’They first year?
      Thanks for asking. veryWest

    • @verywest
      @verywest Před 3 lety

      @Kim-Your question: “have we noticed a change in trout or catfish or lions since man has been keeping records?”
      Although a valid question, again, it misses the fundamental principle of evolution; that bring the immense period of time it usually takes to create meaningful, or even noticeable changes within a species. The time period of even recorded history is insufficient to document meaningful change-2,000-years is only a blink of the eye.
      Yet, observable changes have been documented over a relatively short span of time, when strong environmental conditions are present. For example, after the Industrial Revolution, biologists noticed that a species of moths had was growing darker. The reason they suggested was that the darker moths were harder to see for birds of pray, hence they survived while the pure white moths, resting quietly on a tree trunk were easy to spot. This happened over decades, not centuries.
      An interesting adaptation also occurred, over a somewhat short period of time, when homo Sapiens migrated out of Africa. Their dark skin was no longer a benefit tor survival in preventing too much vitamin-D production under the intense Savana dun, while the lighter pigmented individuals survived the long dark winter months. Thus we now have race designation by skin color, only the species remained the same. A new species occurs only after considerable time lapse required to accumulate considerable changes to major structural adaptations.
      ‘TIME’ combined with environmental selective pressures results in changes from one species to another, yet ‘ALL’ life on this planet-plant, animals, birds and bees, humans of every color-are all related and descendants from one common, ‘one’-cell, life form. Even that microscopic creature descended from something even I can’t imagine, and yet, guess I just did.
      Hope that answers your question, and I will suggest that if this subject is of interest that you sign up for a college class in physical anthropology. I will caution you though, if your even thinking of disproving evolution, don’t go down that road. Others have tried to do so only to find their own, ‘end-of-the-road’, in the land of nowhere.
      Evolution is a proven fact, ‘NOT’ just a theory.

Your videos are very, very well done.

    I have 2% Neanderthal DNA with a variant of 264 which 23andMe says I am third on their list. I also am mostly from the UK and Ireland. the next group is French and German, then Broadly Newestern European and then Spanish & Portuguese and then a trace of Native American and Nigerian. My siblings, we are all half and each of us is so different. I find it interesting. Out of all the relatives I have investigated I am the only one with the highest of UK & Ireland DNA. I am also of Irish royalty but it is 10,000 years ago. maybe someday I will go over Ireland to find out.

      I'll be honest man, northern Europeans are so genetically similar to one another it's probably just completely random, most of us have around 2% neandertal DNA, you just probably lucked out and have slightly more variants than the average person, but this admixture event happened so long ago, and northern Europeans have just moved around and intermixed so much since then that it's really pretty homogenous in terms of archaic dna

    To the contrary of ample evidence, these artists keep portraying the early homo sapiens in the modern European image, with pale skin. Pale skin however is a very recent mutation that took place near the caucasus and only spread to Europe as recent as 5000BCE via the Yamnaya's.

    Very interesting and well-made video. Since you asked about any errors you might have made, I would say that whilst I don't know about any anthropological errors as such, some of the pronunciations of words, particularly names, that you are not familiar with were definitely non-standard. Peking Man for example (pee-king, after the city now known as Beijing, not pecking). Luzonensis named after the island of Luzon (Looz-on rather than Looz-oh-n). Heidelbergensis was a bit iffy at first but got better later. So maybe that's something to watch out for as once or twice I wasn't certain what you were talking about at first.

    From the first day that Homo sapiens walked the earth, we have been pushing other animals into extinction. Due to the fact that we tend to invade other animals territories to continue to build houses and cities and other structures without care for the loss of that species just shows that it would have been impossible for modern man to have lived peacefully side by side with other humans.

    • @jasonjames4254
      @jasonjames4254 Před 3 lety +6

      While that is likely true, it is also true that all species have a tendency to over populate until another natural control stops that expansion (like populations of dingoes and red kangaroos keeping each other in balance). It could also be true that all early humanoid species were expansionist and warlike. Perhaps only homo sapiens survived because we were just that much better at making war than the others. Even chimpanzees and other great apes have been observed engaging in the same warlike behaviors we do. It should also be noted that not all Homo Sapiens have been pushing other animals into extinction. Native American Indians are at least one notable exception. Their primitive hunter/gatherer culture embraced a philosophy of respect for all living things. They lived in balance with nature for thousands of years. Although we are certainly in the midst of a mass extinction caused by humans, there is at least some tendency within us to notice this and attempt conservation measures. But try telling anyone they should live in a smaller house, drive tiny cars or use public transportation, or spend less time online burning electricity watching CZcams videos, and you run into a brick wall. Ultimately, we may go nearly extinct after we strip the planet of all its resources and rob it of all of it's biodiversity

    • @WWTormentor
      @WWTormentor Před 3 lety +1

      Jason James this planet has survived so much throughout its history. From Astroid bombardments to interplanetary collisions to volcanic activities to ice ages. As humans become extinct sometime in the future, earth will survive again and perhaps new species will once again thrive.
      You may be right. Perhaps one of the major characteristics of the “Homo” genus is that we are war like species. Something that’s difficult to see in fossils. Yes we may see war like characteristics is other primates or even other species but it has never been to the extent that we have taken it. We are the only species that kills for trophy. We are the in my spices that enslaves other humans and species. We are the only species that purposely destroys other species habitats and the only spices that thrives on the suffering of others. We assume that with larger brains came wisdom. But yet that wisdom has led to so much death and suffering. Perhaps the ability to have self awareness and self consciousness has been an evolutionary defect which will be the cause of our extinction.
