Microbial Evolution - part 4

Recent genetic techniques have led to new theories of evolution and the relationships between organisms. Students examine this "evolution revolution," using molecular sequences to trace the phylogenetic relationships of microbial life. Both the big picture of microbial evolution and the methods necessary for determining molecular phylogenies are examined.

Hey thanks for these videos. i can't get enough of this stuff!

[RobDeManc]

This subject is fascinating.

[logicCplusplus]

Amazing, and this is evidence for evolution? More like COMMON DESIGN!

In fact, its not the genes that determine the output, its the position effects of chromosomes that differentiate between species. These position effects are determined, not random, Information is derepressed (unfolded), the best model for evolution (phylogeny) is ontogeny!

It's amazing for me to think about archaebacteria, living in their tiny, hellish worlds, completely oblivious to the march of time around them. From Carboniferous swamps to ice ages, they couldn't care less. When this world is a smoking cinder they'll still be hanging tight. We even took them to mars and the moon accidentally, where they may or may not be chillin in the cosmic rays at this very moment.

And we think we're the most "highly evolved" creature. Ha!

[RTyp06]

This is ridiculous..

[mattbytes]

does listening to RnB or Jazz stimulate evolution?

[abram730]

I have to agree.

arusebud, if science remains true it will crash into the truth and nobody has it exact as is the nature of things.

It is the study of microbes that cause this crash of truth.

There are microbes the are symbiotic in the brains of man and a reasons for the importance of pets. Perhaps even a vindication of faith.

How blatantly rediculous.Evolution is a religion..

[arusebud]

These people are so full of deception.The highly evolved apes are even using sayings from the Bible.See evolution is a faith based religion.The tree of life.They are so desperate.Because we can't prove it.
