Yeah but these videos didn't pop out of the ether: the academic machine plays a big part in getting us (including Professor Dave) where we are today, and keeping science going... waste and corruption in academia notwithstanding 😅.
I would like to add a comment that chordates aren’t just classified as having a spinal cord, though that is one of the characteristics needed and is the major one, they most also have “Gill slits” or a sort of Gill like structure that appeared early on in evolution that all cordates have at one point in their development, and (for example humans) loose them later on in their developmental period.
If we're going to be technical, having a "spinal chord" implies the presence of a spine, and only vertebrates have spines. Chordates instead are said to have a "dorsal nerve chord" at some point in their development. Some animals are chordates but not vertebrates, like tunicates or lancelets.
@@p.n3561 Here I was thinking I was being the pedant. When I was learning about this in biology, the term I was taught was "pharyngeal gill slits," and it was understood that they didn't always develop into gills, particularly for tetrapods.
@@ExplosiveBrohoof in biology, or just any branch of science, you can have multiple terms referring to the same thing. It's best to be pendant as to not avoid confusing people with lesser knowledge on the subject.
@@ExplosiveBrohoofI believe you want to say "Notochord". It is a major signalling center for Neurulation and other organ genesis. All chordates have a Notochord at some point in their life.
This explained everything I needed to know. I’m autistic and I struggle to understand certain things. I understand how it WORKS but I don’t understand how to read it, if that makes sense. So the diagrams of the tree of life has always been difficult to understand for me. Despite me understanding how evolution works in detail.
There's a reason we tend to find YT videos more helpful than in class. One, by the time we aatithe videos we already have a basic understanding of what it is because of the classes we took, which at that time we had less understanding. Second you're not getting quizzed or examed on this so he doesn't get into the details. If every class was 11 minutes long we'd have bad scientists
Are they not explaining correctly or do you just not understand what they explained? This is a RUclips video with very basic high-school level explanations (not that there is anything wrong with that). You are not going to hold a PhD with this knowledge. The purpose is to give lay people a basic understanding which is great for me and you.
If all life shares a common ancestor, all life is inbred and everything that eats is a cambial. If all life does not share a common ancestor, the "evolution tree of life" is a lie. Take your pick.
Because if your the latter you believe in a litteral myth coming from people who have little to no scientific backgrounds and at best a semi advanced understanding of math mostly of geometry, so really, is it “evolutionism” that’s the problem or your creationism bullshit that wishes to bring us back to the dark ages?
Thanks.when I was in 11th std I hv to struggle alot to understand these stuffs.Now m in 12th I need these information at some points nd ur video helped me alot.
It's rather misleading (and arrogant) to portray human beings as the top of the tree, as though we were somehow the goal of evolution or should consider ourselves superior to everything else. We're just one branch on the very large and diverse tree of life, and we're not objectively better or worse than other species. We may be the most intelligent, but eagles have better vision, dogs have a better sense of smell, frogs can breathe in the air or underwater, plants can make their own food, salamanders can regrow lost limbs, and _Deinococcus radiodurans_ can survive under conditions that would kill us in minutes.
Why can't they? It's still factually correct and we are the dominant and smarter species. It's not arrogant to put ourselves at the top, that's just how you feel. Also, you say we aren't objectively better or worse but then you list things other exceptional things animals can do besides humans.
There are also some other problems with the concept of species. For example, 'being capable of making viable offspring' is not a transitive relation. For example you can find this in nature: individual A can have offspring with B, B can have offspring with C, C can have offspring with D, but D can't have offspring with A. So, are A and D the same species?
Hey Dave. I really love your videos debunking flat earther idiocy and have started watching your other videos. Sorry to nit pick here but the branching relationships shown in your tree are very misleading, e.g. the branching pattern at 7:36 gives the impression that Reptilia shares a common ancestor with Agnatha and Amphibia independent of Mammalia and Aves. Moreover, Aves is a clade within Reptilia (or Sauropsida). Lizards, snakes, and tuatara would be better represented as Lepidosauria. Similarly, the branching pattern at 7:01 suggests that Porifera and Cnidaria share a common ancestor independent of Arthropoda. I appreciate that some things need to be simplified but I refuse to accept that simplification requires inaccuracy. Sure there is a better way to explain this part of your video.
No that will be a very long time, there are a few more introductory concepts then we start with basal phyla like porifera and cnidaria, it'll take most of next year even just to get to chordates. It's going to be a monster 100+ tutorial series.

How do they know that only one single cell organism developed that all life is related to? Couldn't it have happened at different places on Earth at different times? How do they know it only happened one time in one place? Maybe it happened in several places, and there could be more than one family tree.
There are genetic sequences common to all known life, so it's assumed those sequences originated from a single ancestor. That doesn't mean there wasn't some other form of life before it, but no relatives of that survive to this day.
All species on Earth use the same genetic code, i.e. every DNA strand has the same four bases, and each codon (base triplet) codes for the same amino acid. They also all use very similar mechanisms for DNA transcription and replication, for example reading bases in the same direction. Had life originated independently multiple times, this would be extremely improbable.
If all life shares a common ancestor, all life is inbred and everything that eats is a cambial. If all life does not share a common ancestor, the "evolution tree of life" is a lie. Take your pick.
@@alrichs8146 obviously the first one, life is quite shitty if you ask me, unfair, violent, disgusting in more than several ways, sure there's love and beautiful scenery and whatnot (which I don't think it's worth it's opposite side) but what I found fascinating was the information, the delivery and the concept, like finding fascinating the structure and power of a nuclear bomb (which actually is quite fascinating)
Kind of weird that you spend a lot of time focusing on evolution, but you explain the relations between animals through the outdated linnaean system, which was designed prior to the theory of evolution, and is entirely incompatible with our modern understanding of the relations between organisms.
@@ProfessorDaveExplainsthe problem is, the terminology is incompatible with our modern understanding. For example at 7:40 you draw a diagram of chordata, with reptilia and aves being two seperate classes. This works under the linnaean system which had no regard for evolutionary relationships, but in the context of evolutionary relationships, aves is very much apart of reptilia, but then if you fix that, you run into issues of terminology in how can a class be nested in another class as both aves and reptilia are classes under the linnaean system.
It is simply subject to revision, which is happening all the time. Check my zoology series, it is much more in depth, this tutorial is for 9th grade biology students.
I always demand from creationists to show me one creature that doesn't fit in. Should be easy for them since (according to the creationists) we are separatly created creatures from god.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains IIRC it's still a disputed subject among scientists, with no real consensus. And species like Pithovirus sibericum or Mimivirus doesn't help...
"Every living thing is related in some way." Yeah every element of the periodic table is also related in some way.. I get that this is a rudimentary brush of phylo but the statement lacks conclusion thus falls in the anecdotal category. Those who laid the foundation for these concepts at least had to overcome savage pushback of their conclusions and here we are slapping anecdote around in an educational environment.
Um, elements are not "related" in the way biological organisms are literally related by heredity. It is not "anecdotal". I don't think you know what that word means.
The illustrative top of the tree is just to represent that humans have a long ancestry behind them and all life are related in some way. Obviously some early branches of the tree are missing due to mass extinction events. A more accurate representation would be "fractal zoom" like they have on onezoom. But that's even complex to understand.
I don’t have like how you put humans at the top of the Evolutionary tree as we are not pinnacle or evolution no superior to other animals we are just another species.
I think it was the tree of human evolution, and we are the last node on that tree. But trees tend to grow upwards and so we would be at the top. If that tree was of the entirety of life, we would be at the same height as all the other species.
@@hetaeramancer on top with the other species living today, phylogenic tree put at the top the species with the same time of evolution, it doesn't makes sense to talk about superior species, nor talking about complexity as some species became simpler through evolution (most parasitic species for exemple)
we are absolutely the most the superior, if we wanted to we could extinct every single species on earth or enslave all of them, we are unmatched in power and intelligence
@@keegan6388 yeah but that would also result in us dying and also we can’t do that because we could never organize to do so. If every ant had the same idea to overthrow humanity they could probably do it. (There is 1000 pounds of ants for every human on earth and I don’t think I could kill 1000 pounds of ants)
This video is the joke. But people who hate God love fairytale videos like this, that employ animations and graphs and sound "scientific". When you reject God, you're forced to embrace far fetched narratives like this one, that try to show that we're accidental byproducts of an undirected process in which bacteria then appears, and given billions of years will result in humans being formed all by itself. This is magic! Your ancestor was a fish, and before that bacteria! Lol. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27
It’s so funny that people say that people who are not indoctrinated in believe in a magic fairy man hate him. You can’t hate something that doesn’t exist. Religious people get mad when they see the obvious truth because they hate themselves and know down deep inside that it’s not true. That’s why they always say I am a believer. You don’t have to say that it is obvious. Go believing your silly religion it’s fine but let the rest of the world be adults about it. It sounds so last far-fetched send your magic invisible man created everything and then reality huh. LOL dummy
@@ProfessorDaveExplains jajaja yes, but its a joke. I saw your debate with Mr hovind, and i started following you. You have such good material man, really helpfull and entertaining. Greetings from México!!!
This is a fairy tale that appeals to those who have rejected God who is the creator of all things. Speculation is not science nor are animations and tree charts devised by the imaginations of men. This is essentially saying that pond-scum just happened to appear long long ago all on it's own, and given enough time, a lot of time! Like billions of years time, a man will eventually form. Man is an accidental byproduct of an undirected process of matter reacting with matter. It's magic! And you're descendant of bacteria! For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools... Roman's 1:21-22
Modern biology is a fairy tale, got it. But so an ancient book with giants, and talking snakes, and people that get swallowed by whales but somehow live, and a man being made out of magic dust, and a woman being made out a rib, and people turning into salt, what is that, a documentary? Stop listening to preachers. They're lying to you about literally everything, especially science. Actually learn biology so that you won't say something so incredibly ignorant ever again.
Bruh gtfo. Poor professor dave explained such a great topic beautifully, and you are fricking denying it. Poor scientists that discovered and worked their lives out.
@@tgstudio85 Well you can't tell me that the earth was made from an explosion and boom. And everything started from something, where did the earth start from and the rock that hit the earth where did it come from. Non of these things happened coincidental
So? Cows also produce bovines and mammals. And dogs produce canines and mammals. Oh wait...do you get why mammal was a term for the origin mammal brood stock before mammals had diversified mammal variations like bovines, canines, felines etc? Like birds had originally not the 12,000 species from hummingbirds over eagles and penguins to ostriches.
So, with your logic, how did dogs come about or bananas or corn. what's funny is that broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage and more all came from one plant called Brassica oleracea but were bread by farmers to have specific traits.

Because the sequence shows a string of animals changing from one to another, unrelated to the next; like a camel changing into an ape. It's stupid and inaccurate.
A much better sequence to use would be the one from Carl Sagan's Cosmos series.

Following your dedinition Tigers and Lions are the same species.
Female ligers are fertile.
I don't think beeing able to produce fertile offspring is enough to consider 2 animals the same species.
Same goes for homo neanderthalensis and homo-sapiens too.

@@albertleinstein5378sorry, Don't know what you ask for with your "what?" So instead of a short answer here is everything in different words, hope that helps to clear things up :)
the given definition was: same species is when 2 individuals can produce fertile offspring together. Well, amongst others Tigers and Lions can do that.
Either Tigers and Lions are the same species or this definition is off.

How is it that the earth is almost a billion years and we still don't have a time traveller?
time travel as depicted in back to the future or terminator is impossible
The Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old, and we all travel through time -- forward at a rate of 1 second per second.
movie-grade time travel is impossible, sorry :(
I feel uncomfy with you saying that humans are at the "top" of the tree. Other species are dope too, in many other ways.

My biology teacher taught us: King Phillip Came Over For Good Sex.
our teacher said its SPAGHETTI OR SOUP!!!!!
How do they know that only one single cell organism developed that all life is related to? Couldn't it have happened at different places on Earth at different times? How do they know it only happened one time in one place? Maybe it happened in several places, and there could be more than one family tree.
There are genetic sequences common to all known life, so it's assumed those sequences originated from a single ancestor. That doesn't mean there wasn't some other form of life before it, but no relatives of that survive to this day.
@@davehugstrees Oh yeah. I forgot about DNA.
All species on Earth use the same genetic code, i.e. every DNA strand has the same four bases, and each codon (base triplet) codes for the same amino acid. They also all use very similar mechanisms for DNA transcription and replication, for example reading bases in the same direction. Had life originated independently multiple times, this would be extremely improbable.

humans "at the top" implying they are more evolved or somehow above other species?
Kind of weird that you spend a lot of time focusing on evolution, but you explain the relations between animals through the outdated linnaean system, which was designed prior to the theory of evolution, and is entirely incompatible with our modern understanding of the relations between organisms.
It is not. We use this terminology all the time.
@@ProfessorDaveExplainsthe problem is, the terminology is incompatible with our modern understanding. For example at 7:40 you draw a diagram of chordata, with reptilia and aves being two seperate classes. This works under the linnaean system which had no regard for evolutionary relationships, but in the context of evolutionary relationships, aves is very much apart of reptilia, but then if you fix that, you run into issues of terminology in how can a class be nested in another class as both aves and reptilia are classes under the linnaean system.
It is simply subject to revision, which is happening all the time. Check my zoology series, it is much more in depth, this tutorial is for 9th grade biology students.
I always demand from creationists to show me one creature that doesn't fit in. Should be easy for them since (according to the creationists) we are separatly created creatures from god.
Kind is apart of Family?
“Kind” is not biological terminology.

No, lying apologists use it to obfuscate biological terminology. Just ignore them.
Where do viruses fit in?
We don't consider viruses to be living organisms.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains IIRC it's still a disputed subject among scientists, with no real consensus. And species like Pithovirus sibericum or Mimivirus doesn't help...

Anyone else here who's part tree?
"Every living thing is related in some way." Yeah every element of the periodic table is also related in some way.. I get that this is a rudimentary brush of phylo but the statement lacks conclusion thus falls in the anecdotal category. Those who laid the foundation for these concepts at least had to overcome savage pushback of their conclusions and here we are slapping anecdote around in an educational environment.
Um, elements are not "related" in the way biological organisms are literally related by heredity. It is not "anecdotal". I don't think you know what that word means.

fuckin obviously
great video, however, man is not at the ‘top’ of the tree, or special in any way
What's the timestamp ?
Found it, yes, that's nonsense.
We are tho
The illustrative top of the tree is just to represent that humans have a long ancestry behind them and all life are related in some way. Obviously some early branches of the tree are missing due to mass extinction events.
A more accurate representation would be "fractal zoom" like they have on onezoom. But that's even complex to understand.
@@KungFuBarbie-pc7hbNope
I don’t have like how you put humans at the top of the Evolutionary tree as we are not pinnacle or evolution no superior to other animals we are just another species.
its bc we are the most advanced
but i dunno mybe its bc we make the tree so they just mke us on the top
I think it was the tree of human evolution, and we are the last node on that tree. But trees tend to grow upwards and so we would be at the top. If that tree was of the entirety of life, we would be at the same height as all the other species.
@@hetaeramancer on top with the other species living today, phylogenic tree put at the top the species with the same time of evolution, it doesn't makes sense to talk about superior species, nor talking about complexity as some species became simpler through evolution (most parasitic species for exemple)
we are absolutely the most the superior, if we wanted to we could extinct every single species on earth or enslave all of them, we are unmatched in power and intelligence
@@keegan6388 yeah but that would also result in us dying and also we can’t do that because we could never organize to do so. If every ant had the same idea to overthrow humanity they could probably do it. (There is 1000 pounds of ants for every human on earth and I don’t think I could kill 1000 pounds of ants)

But the Bible says.... jk lol
This video is the joke. But people who hate God love fairytale videos like this, that employ animations and graphs and sound "scientific". When you reject God, you're forced to embrace far fetched narratives like this one, that try to show that we're accidental byproducts of an undirected process in which bacteria then appears, and given billions of years will result in humans being formed all by itself. This is magic! Your ancestor was a fish, and before that bacteria! Lol.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27
It’s so funny that people say that people who are not indoctrinated in believe in a magic fairy man hate him. You can’t hate something that doesn’t exist. Religious people get mad when they see the obvious truth because they hate themselves and know down deep inside that it’s not true. That’s why they always say I am a believer. You don’t have to say that it is obvious. Go believing your silly religion it’s fine but let the rest of the world be adults about it. It sounds so last far-fetched send your magic invisible man created everything and then reality huh. LOL dummy

This is a fairy tale that appeals to those who have rejected God who is the creator of all things.
Speculation is not science nor are animations and tree charts devised by the imaginations of men. This is essentially saying that pond-scum just happened to appear long long ago all on it's own, and given enough time, a lot of time! Like billions of years time, a man will eventually form. Man is an accidental byproduct of an undirected process of matter reacting with matter.
It's magic! And you're descendant of bacteria!
For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools... Roman's 1:21-22

Stop listening to preachers. They're lying to you about literally everything, especially science. Actually learn biology so that you won't say something so incredibly ignorant ever again.
