The way you teach science is amazing and you make seemingly boring subjects much more interesting and fascinating. I never knew I'd be fascinated with a seemingly boring topic like plate tectonics lol. I'm a polymath like you though but definitely to a lesser degree lol.. Keep it up champ!
Hey, I just thought I'd say that I love your content and it's amazing that all of this is for free. I'm just here for the maths, physics and some of the chemistry so I'm only commenting here so you would have any chance of seeing it. Would you be able to launch a differential equations series as eluded to in one of the quantum physics videos? Would you also be able to redo your classical physics series but more advanced for example: using the Fourier transform to make calculations about light and sound? If you don't, it's still amazing that all of this even exists

WHY did we leave the water? I can't think of a reason to risk it. I suppose there's only one reason. Food. But wasn't there enough food to not risk leaving the water to grab a leaf? It's such an important transition, but my mind can't fathom the initial need. There were no insects to tempt us.
my understanding is that it starts with random chance, then one animal figures out there's uncontested food on the land they can now walk on. eventually, more species crack the code, creating a second ecosystem where there is contest for that food.
@@think_of_a_storyboard3635 It also wasn't an instantaneous process. As far as I'm aware, the majority of the first animals to walk on land were amphibious, and still lived mostly in the water. They usually went onto land for a similar reason to turtles, usually to lay their eggs away from predators or occasionally as a means of migration where water was too shallow. They then slowly became more and more adapted to living on land.
Could you explain where peat comes in comparison of soil types (it being soil-like being mostly plant material that hasn't fully decomposed)? I've wondered why, if it has been used in fertilizers, peat biomes are not rampant with plant growth (i.e. lush forests instead of scrubland)? Yes, it's boggy and acidic but not to the extent that would prohibit vegetation (at least in my mind). I appreciate you would be justified and tempted to tell me to "Google it!" but if everyone did that, there would be no need for your excellent videos! I would appreciate it if you would indulge me and offer some explantion. Thanks.

I hope I don't come off as pleading here, but would you be able to respond to this if it's on your mind? That would be great
I want to do diffeq I just don't have a good writer for it

Thanks again Big D - super presentation as always!
Carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and hydrologic cycles. It's almost as if the planet is one giant composting system! ;-)
In these 9 minutes I just understood my middle school biology class even more. After 5 years 😂
Bro I could literally teach in my class because of:professor Dave gutsickgibons

Increase in food and lack of competition.

@@DarkPlaysThings How would we know that though?
@@think_of_a_storyboard3635 It's the "one animal figures out..." bit
Thank u dave
I love your contents, can I get a comment heart?

OHHHHHHHHHH YEEEAAHHHHHHHHH SOIIILLLLS LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!! SOIL YEAH!
When’s your next debate?
Hi may l ask you a question
Hello
Please!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don i am first 😊
Got me- how are you?
@@donchristie420i hate mondays man, other than that i am doing great 😅
