The Disappointing Reality of Carcinization

  • Carcinization was a hot new buzzword on Twitter-about 3 years ago. Well, I'm finally taking a crack at how unimpressive and overblown the seeming evolution of "every" animal into a crab is. Oh, and by the way, I didn't even scratch the surface on the worm thing-John P. Friel, Ph.D., describes Anguiliformity as the many attempts of nature to evolve an Eel, and it has over 60 different examples. / 1337518844122976256

    LMAO! This video sucks! I hope you stop making videos, because then there would be less BAD videos on this website.

    okay, after watching this (and then all your other videos) i find it deeply troubling that you dont have more views. so please dont let that discourage you. Your videos are fucking amazing and please keep making them.

    Excellent video which says what has been on my mind ever since the popularization of 'carcinization,' put far more eloquently than I could. The case for decarcinization at the end of the video was particularly enlightening!

    thanks. i was thinking the same thing, its a good meme but not really a biological rule per se.

    When I first saw this video, I thought you would have at least 100K subscribers. I was really surprised to see that you had less than a hundred. Your production quality is so high, but I guess the algorithm just hasn't blessed you yet. Keep making awesome stuff. ❤

    I was watching a video by swaggersouls, soup, blarg, etc, and they were making jokes about 11 billion crabs going missing in alaska. Then someone said "arent all animals turning into crabs" then i looked it up, discovered carcinization, then found your channel. Best random sequence of events ever 😂

    This seems like a channel with the potential to get big. If you were a stock, I would invest. Subscribed.

    2:50 vertebrates are more capable than inverts of drastic evolution? What a joke.
    Yes, carcinization is a dumb meme, but tell me when has any vertebrate become microscopic, sessile, or endoparasitic? Has any vertebrate evolved to lose its heart or brain? Yeah I thought so.

    • @zzineohp
      @zzineohp  5 месяцев назад

      well that's reductive. Obviously the invertebrates have ended up more diverse than the vertebrates, because its an uneven comparison-the term "Invertebrates" is stupid from a cladisitical persepctive, because Vertebrates should just be a small part of that. If you take any Invertebrate clade comparable to Chordates (like Ecdysozoa), you'll see more diversity in the Chordates.

    • @zzineohp
      @zzineohp  5 месяцев назад

      I feel like that was a bad explanation. Essentially, you've just done the Cladistic equivalent of hearing that Asia is the largest continent, and saying "no it's not! If you combine all the other continents, they're way large than Asia!"

      @@zzineohp oh, but you see, that's wrong still. Arthropods alone are more diverse and dynamic than vertebrates. There is no vertebrate answer to pycnogonids, pentastomids, or tantulocarids

      @zzineohp Well, I respectfully disagree. Many invertebrate groups on their own are each more dynamic and diverse than vertebrates. There is no endoparasitic, sessile or microscopic vertebrates.
