I love your app. It has helped me supplement my studying so much. I can understand the text after your videos. Also, you're information is easier to digest than my teacher. I'm not sorry.
I have problems concentrating and making myself study... essentially I couldn't do it. Until these videos... thankyou for making educational videos that are done in an engaging and friendly way : ) Things like this are the only way I can study. : )
This was even helpfull for me, a university med-student, I have been reading 3 anatomy and physiology litteratures in order to learn everything, then you came with this video making me understand almost every important concept in a fun and easy way ! you deserve a lot of credits ! love ur channel, and here you get one more subscription !
Mahmoud Nijim learn to speak English before fucking with me. It's "where did that come from" not "where did that came from". Would have thought koran would educate you better.
Thanks! Your videos have proved priceless when teaching my EMTs. It makes it so easy for them to understand. They are fun and full of so much info. Now that you have the apps, I have sent that info onto my class to help them study for their EMT Class
6:24 I'm pretty sure that sharing the throat for breathing and swallowing IS IDEAL, as anyone with a bad cold can tell you. It's really, really good that we aren't restricted to ONLY breathing with our nose and swallowing with our mouth. Like really good. We'd all be dead.
you know.... All this complex, integrated, and functional development that happened to occur randomly. But If I claim that a factory exploded in the middle of no where, and please don't ask me where this factory comes from, and after millions of years I told you that in the rubble I found a perfectly functional rolex (against the second law of thermodynamic) would you not look at me like I'm crazy. Do you know much more complex one simple cell is in comparison to the finest rolex. But they'll teach this foolishness as fact and call you a religious nut or fool if don't believe it. In some countries you can't even receive a high school diploma if don't believe in this forced foolishness.
not an appropriate comparison at all. Biological/evolutionary processes have the ability (so to speak) to 'throw out' forms and functions which do not work. More importantly, forms and functions which do work are kept. Also, its billions of years - a number large enough you (and I) cannot really comprehend.
Matt Contreras it's not comprehendable because it's not true, there is overwhelming evidence against the belief of millions of years. Millions of years also do not bring new functions or traits in all species, natural selection and mutation can only use information that is there or remove information.
I wasnt talking to you originally, I was speaking to "rationalthinker". Millions of years is not a "belief": its a conclusion based on observation and evidence. Otherwise I'm not sure I understand what you are really talking about as it's not articulated very clearly, sorry.

Learning this in the classroom, I got pretty much a solid understanding of all this, but paired with the graphics you provided really helps to see how these systems intricately work together. Makes you appreciate life more. FASCINATING stuff
I keep getting set extra work by my science teacher because I'm enthusiastic and this channel has allowed me to do really well in the research. Thanks to this channel I get to participate in a science day for g+t pupils on Tuesday! x
Me too! I have always wondered why do we have control of our breathing while also being involuntary, yet not of our heart beats? Both are needed to life but we can stop breathing voluntarily meaning not that much O2 while that happens.
sion8 I think it's because we need to be able to temporarily stop breathing when we're submersed in water or surrounded by smoke. You don't have complete control of your breathing though, you can't hold your breath for too long for example. There isn't any reason for us to have such control of our heart rate, none that would have made it more likely for our ancestors to reproduce anyway.
Well, when considering heart rate -- it can be regulated by will and thought. It is advantageous in certain situations to control heart rate. Fear and anxiety help us in survival situations, but too much fear/stress can be harmful and prevent us from solving problems. So, regulating breathing and heart rate are useful in other ways, right?
RockSprites Our nervous system control the heart rate involuntarily much better than we would do voluntarily. Or it would if our lifestyles didn't change so rapidly in the past few thousand years (or maybe tens of thousands). The human population didn't have enough time or selective pressure to adapt to these changes. Besides, when it comes to stress and anxiety it's better to control the hormones in your blood rather than directly controlling your heart rate.
Am I the only one who skipped like the first minute of the video, because I don't believe in evolution? God is so good. Takes a mastermind to create something like this.
Just going to say: that was one of the best introductory sequences Crash Course has filmed. ...Yes, it was a long one (2:35?) ...but it was worth it: colorful, illustrative, informative, and entertaining. (...and well-read. ...and well-illustrated!) Kudos.
Don't think I'm not grateful, because I am. Truly. These videos are basically DIVINE in terms of studying.... like an animated Bible for science nerds ... But do you think you can do a video on respiratory volumes and capacities? I know it's probably too late and you've moved on to other things but that would be awesome. It's a pretty big section in A+P 2. My semester is almost over but I think it could really help future students
What wonderful graphics and such an amazing way to explain the difficult concepts about the human body. Thankyou for your video. Just a small request - I wish you could speak a tad bit slower though. The information was moving too fast to take it all in.
Best way to supplement studying. Very thorough, helpful, and you make it easy to understand with examples and animations. I've used crash course videos for microbiology and now anatomy and this helps me get a's
+z2u How about Hank and John are both really good at different things. Like Hank knows science and John knows history and literature. No need to compare them.
Thank you so much Hank Green and the whole Crash Course, you are my favorite teacher of RUclips. Here's my general process of working with your (mainly chemistry, biology, and anatomy) courses: watch each video several times, read on the same subject in one of my science books, lather, rinse, repeat. I'm 20 years out of school but have never had the total understanding then as a student of these subjects then as I do now. Learning for the love of it is so much more effective than rushing to take it all in for the next assignment, quiz, or exam, and that it what your courses help me do.
Breathing actually has a lot of things to do with amblyopia, a neurological disorder that shuts down one of your eyes. With basic stretching of your nostril on your weak side you get big improvement. I don't if that's a solution to amblyopia but it definitely helps. Our brain only takes one side of oxygen, try it for yourself, you only breathe through one nostril.
Love crash course, but this was a frustrating one. Reviewing for exam you don't need the first evolutionary half and had to play at .75 speed for the last bit it was covered so quick. Still interesting and great content
Hank, your videos are being extremely helpful! They motivate me to keep on chasing my goals by working hard at my studies. Thanks a lot, and congratulations for your amazing work! Best regards from Brazil. :)
this is the first time I have ever watched a video at 720p (because my Internet sucks that much)... this is an amazing part of life and now I'm just sad because I'm probably never going to watch a video with that much quality any time soon :( anyway, greetings from Portugal!
+Maria Dias This sounds pretty saddening.. You can bet I'll be hoping (if hope can do anything, then let's hope so! :P) that your situation will evolve sooner, rather then later.. A good internet speed will be a great investment by any sovereign power for their people as people like you and me are so easily able to enjoy the dispensing of knowledge! In the mean time, it's super kickass to hear you spent your first time watching a HD video on RUclips was on crashcourse. That's a real achievement in my books :D
Than you Hank for creating such hilarious and educational videos for the Crash Course Series! For those individuals who find science boring, or difficult to understand; your humor and casual approach engages the non science crowd and allows for actual learning!
NO NO NO you dont mess with magikarp. mine has tackle . imagine a 10kg fish tackling you. you dont want that scaly rigid body on your face at tackle velocity. respect magikarp.
I always thought crash course was full of useful information but too fast to catch most of it until I discovered how to slow down the speed :) now they are perfect
Woww this is my favorite Crash Course A&P episode yet!! It made me laugh multiple times while simultaneously making sense of what hours of studying did not! Thank you so much, as always! :)
Well... Thank you for this video! Now I can study for my test easily! Even though a lot to remember.... Oh well.. Lets juts hope I get good scores! Cause last test I got TOP THREE!
This video is interesting as our breathing evolved from a fish , that, now, breathes using gills. Also im interested how long did it take for the fish to evolve from bacteria or other fish
Great video as always, but if you want to talk about mechanisms that prevent food from entering your respiratory system you should concentrate on the vocal cords more than the epiglottis, because they do most of the job. In fact the epiglottis is so secondary that we can pretty much live without it (with more difficulty but eventually people without epiglottis get the hang of it...)
0:15 it doesn't have a name huh? lets call it Hank, after the great lecturer that saved countless college students from failing their exams. (if you dont like Hank, you can give it ur own name)
thought i had seen all these bio/physiology kind of videos but WOOT not this one. i feel so powerful. Thanks AGAIN Hank. You Rule. Because of you (oh. and me) I'm gonna be the nursiest nurse that ever nursed. yes i subscribe cuz: Yea You. love, gretchen.
Oh, well, if it gets deep down there, the immune system will surround it in mucus and destroy it, and remove the resultant stuff via the lymphatic system. If it's not so deep, it can still get surrounded in mucus and coughed up. If the immune system fails to deal with it, either it will just stay there, or the person dies from infection or something. I think that's the gist of it.
The epiglottis in your body will prevent that. If it does happen to get past the epiglottis (probably cause u ate too fast or you were talking while eating) u will violently cough it out.
Basically what Garth field said. You have several reflexes in your body that keep food/liquids from going where they shouldn't go, even if it manages to get past the epiglottis you still have your carinal reflux to help expel it (where the two bronchi stem off from). If you get to much fluid, like if you vomit and then it goes down your lungs, or you have a near drowning experience, you can get pneumonia. But in general if it's just a little fluid that wouldn't happen.

So how does the body deal with food/liquid/objects that accidentally fall through larynx/trachea?
Coughing
Gareth Field I mean what happens when it falls through the trachea?
Oh, well, if it gets deep down there, the immune system will surround it in mucus and destroy it, and remove the resultant stuff via the lymphatic system. If it's not so deep, it can still get surrounded in mucus and coughed up. If the immune system fails to deal with it, either it will just stay there, or the person dies from infection or something. I think that's the gist of it.
The epiglottis in your body will prevent that. If it does happen to get past the epiglottis (probably cause u ate too fast or you were talking while eating) u will violently cough it out.
Basically what Garth field said. You have several reflexes in your body that keep food/liquids from going where they shouldn't go, even if it manages to get past the epiglottis you still have your carinal reflux to help expel it (where the two bronchi stem off from). If you get to much fluid, like if you vomit and then it goes down your lungs, or you have a near drowning experience, you can get pneumonia. But in general if it's just a little fluid that wouldn't happen.
