  • What is so great about monophyletic groups? Why are phylogenies so important? Because they teach you things about organisms that you didn't know before! That is why phylogenetics is so important, and why monophyly is king!

    Where was this video when I got in an argument with my high school biology teacher because I kept insisting that birds were actually reptiles? It didn’t make sense to me that birds were dinosaurs and dinosaurs were reptiles, but at the same time birds were supposed to be a completely separate thing that had nothing to do with reptiles.
    Very good to know that I’ve instinctively been on the right track all along!

    Because this is something i have been trying to prove to people since high school biology this reminded me of an idea for a series i had then. Why biology class is wrong. From how everything is oversimplified to the point of being wrong to the incorrect definition of species they teach to just taxonomy in general. It seems that someone way more qualified is doing the series for me. Thank you.

    This is a very great explanation even to more layman types among us. I've not studied anything on Phylogenetic trees in a long while but this makes sense to me. Now I know even better why you've taught at Universities and give classes for people. Very cool, in fact stinking rad!

Also I dont know if its on purpouse or unconsiously done, but you speak slowly (compared to your main chanel and your livestreams for exemple) and it makes it easier to understand! Even for people who first laguage is not english like me!
    Keep doing this amazing job on this chanel!!

  • @jameswatkins624
    @jameswatkins624 3 года назад

    Question though, for anyone still here or visiting from the community post. How do you discern how a brand new organism even fits into a phylogeny in the first place? If I were to look at a bird without knowing what I do, I'm not sure that I would place it in the same location on a phylogeny that it now rests in today. I don't doubt these conclusions, but I would like to know more about the methods that are used to draw them.

    • @clintexplains5327

      Morphology and better genetic analysis can give you a very good idea where they belong. I'll try to make videos on that subject soon.

    • @lachlainndemontbrun5654
      @lachlainndemontbrun5654 3 года назад +3

      Domesticated animals are considered different subspecies of the original wild animal. Dogs are a subspecies of wolf for an example. We also can't really just make a virus in a lab from scratch, we can genetically alter a virus that currently exists but we would just consider that virus the same virus as before, just a strain that we created. If we could theoretically make entirely new organism it might be classified in a different tree than all other living things.
