I'm always impressed by Ted-Ed videos, but every now and then there is one that is such an incredibly informative piece of art that I cannot believe it exists. This is one of them.
I love these Ted-Ed videos. They are even better than the actual Ted Talks because they're condensed knowledge. Just my type of information. I don't like people telling stories. I like facts.
@@tonypereztoro Yeah, you don't learn any of those things from TedTalks, trust me. I've seen many TedTalks and most of the time the people are just self-advertising themselves to feel better about their lives. It's like a cesspool of pseudo-intellectuals and people who like to hear themselves talk. I don't care about other people's life stories. It's anecdotal information and therefore totally subjective in nature. Facts on the other hand are transcendent because they remain true whether or not someone tells stories about them.

I can guarantee you that if you watch all of his videos you'll learn more than you'll ever learn in any TedTalk (in terms of financial knowledge). I mean, how many of the TedTalk speakers are self-made billionaires? I rest my case. Besides, knowing about dendrology is in no way useless. I can accurately identify most tree genera and that's a super useful skill IRL. If I were to look at a random photo e.g. and there was a tree in it I could predict the geographic location. I can do the same thing with stars. If a photo is taken at night and if the stars are clearly visible I can deduce the approximated location by means of heuristic analysis. To normal people this information might seem useless but that's only because you can't do anything with this information. No one is more serious about learning "actually useful information" than me. I have even constructed an ontological framework to properly map all knowable things. Anyway, you have a lot to learn, young man.

They’re mixing up Sequoias (Sequoiadendron giganteum) which grow in the Sierra Nevada, and Giant Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens), which grow on the north coast of California. Giant redwoods are the tallest trees in the world, but don’t grow in the Sierra Nevada.
Correction(s) - Sequoiadendron giganteum are Giant Sequoia while Sequoia sempervirens are Coast Redwood. The tallest living Mountain Ash (Eucalyptus regnans), Centurion at 329.7 feet and Coast Douglas-Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii), Boehner Fir at 327 feet are more than 50 feet shorter than the tallest Coast Redwood, Hyperion at 380.3 feet.
@@jpch842 Cause the tallest Douglass fir and Tasmanian mountain ash were cut down. Look into the Nooksack Giant tree, at a whopping 143 *meters* tall, and still young. Its a very sad story, as always humans destroy first and think later.
probably 360 meter or 1200 feet. since gravity is the limiting factor, mars is around 1/3rd earth gravity. if you built a giant dome on the moon then you could get a tree to 700 meters or 2300 feet. that would be taller then the current second highest building on earth. almost twice the height of the world trade centers.

Growing up in Northern California, I was always taught that the Coastal Redwoods, a sister species to the Giant Sequoias which this video was talking about, were the tallest trees at over 325 feet tall. The Giant Sequoias were instead known as the widest trees, and although very tall, were not as tall as the Coastal Redwoods. There is also a third type of redwood species, the Dawn Redwoods from China, but they usually only grow to around 100 feet tall, which is still quite tall, but nowhere near the tallest.
In latin Redwood is Sequoia sempervirens. I have been in Redwood and saw the current highest tree in 1994. If I remember correctly it was >110m. But in 2006 an even higher tree was discovered and it was over 115m. I beleive there has been larger redwoods, but they were chopped down some time ago.
Douglass firs and Tasmanian mountain ash can actually grow even taller. Its just that the tallest specimens of those were cut down, leaving the Coast Redwoods as king.
I wanted to have the question to the question therefore I asked these to various of my botanist teachers but neither of them satisfied me now I am satisfied with this wonderful explanation and animation but curious more to know about it more in future.... Love Ted Ed!
that starting quote- I have a bookmark with it on it, and I've had it since I was like 6. It's actually pretty amazing that I've not lost it yet... also happy pi day
so then what would happen if you tried to grow a sequoia in space? (assuming you had perfect growing conditions/environment, appropriate soil and enough space etc etc.) without gravity would trees grow taller? or grow at all for that matter? any information about growing plants in space would be welcome and appreciated!
plants have been grown in space before. the lack of gravity upsets their sensory capabilities and they need to be exposed to light from a consistent direction in order to get their bearings. sometimes the seedlings need to be manually unearthed to be properly exposed
Most of the tallest tree facts in the video are about Coast redwoods, not the tree commonly referred to as Sequoias. The common name Sequoia refers to the Giant Sequoia, which grows in the Sierra. Coast redwoods are the tallest known trees, and they grow in the coast ranges of California.
The tallest trees on earth are on the Northern Californian coast, the coast redwood, or Sequoia sempervirens. The giant sequoia of the Sierra Nevada are the largest trees by volume on earth, not the tallest.
According to this theory, yes. Of course I don’t believe any trees work like that, as there isn’t a whole lot of the vital nutrients like Potassium floating around in the air, and definitely not in the forms plants are designed to use them. Of course there could (almost certainly would) be other limits you’d have to overcome, like making certain your base could keep growing large enough that you can support the weight, dealing with the increasing wind speeds as you get farther above any wind breakers, the decreasing temperature, lack of anything that can pollinate any seeds produced well above the normal tree line, are all potential problems you’d have to deal with in the next several hundred meters (that I can think of). Solve ways to deal with those increasing problems, and then you have to deal with things like the jet stream which would be a major hurtle to cross, the lack of oxygen to even perform photosynthesis, and if you get high enough, the deadly UV rays normally blocked by the Ozone layer below you, that are harmful enough to essentially burn/vaporize leaves to ashes. We start talking beyond that and we’re dealing with problems of surviving vacuum pressure, acquiring enough carbon to sustain your growth (and at this point the tree would probably need to be made of some kind of carbon nanotubes for reasons demonstrated in the next point), re-structuring itself as it no longer will need to worry about gravity causing it to collapse in on itself, but rather the rotation of the Earth tearing it apart, with the upper end being thrown into orbit like letting go on a bowling ball after swinging it about yourself, while the lower part then collapses in on itself if it did successfully restructure itself, not to mention that at some point you’re no longer dealing with just UV rays, but X-ray and Gamma rays capable of stripping of entire atmospheres not protected by a magnetic shield (which btw will likely interact poorly with a tree as they are full of trapped charged particles). Get past all those problems, and congratulations, you’ve essentially created a space elevator, except it’s an elevator for nutrients instead of spaceships and people, and it’s a tree, and probably mostly a grey rod for the majority of it’s length as there’s no point in leaves or branches outside of the first couple of kilometers. So TL;DR, probably but will likely be limited by other factors before too long.
Fun fact: sequoias aren't the tallest trees in the world. Well, they may be now, but the tallest ever cut down were Douglas-firs (which are of course not firs). There was one in southern Oregon (I want to say it was Coos County) that was about 420 ft tall and another in southern BC in the Nooksack Valley that was measured (maybe a bit unreliably) at 465 ft.
I love trees, we should treat trees and plants better. 💗🌱 I love the cute animation, the sap was so cute I wanted to adopt it. Too bad I have difficulties concentrating due to my ADD, but this is a very interesting video. Thank you Ted-ed, definitely one of my favorite channels, probably my favorite even.

Apparently microscopic plant organisms in the oceans contribute most of the planet's oxygen supply, not forests. Not that that's a reason to chop them all down, or anything. Trees are good.

Nice, creative animations + well-delivered scientific explanations = TED-ED. i have a question. can trees communicate with other trees and living organisms? or by simplier means, can trees communicate?
Hi there Vince Friend! The short answer is yes! Trees talk, often and over vast distances. If you want to do a deeper dive, there is a TED Talk on this very subject, check it out to learn about the social lives of trees: bit.ly/HowTreesCommunicate
Imagine if they could vibrate when they felt threatened or could shiver their leaves in response ? That'd be so sick. Imagine have light convos with trees about life and stuff. A yes would be a light quick shiver and a no would be a quick rumble from the bark rearranging. Wow, I can make a cool af Sci-Fi story about this.
trees in 1899: one day i will be the tallest! gravity in 1900: i stop trees from growing trees in 2021: i will keep on gro- gravity in 2022: i told you so
This is a little besides the main point of the video, but coast redwoods are taller than giant sequoias, as are the tallest douglas firs in the PNW and some mountain gums in Tasmania. Sequoias are the most massive trees, however, because their trunks stay thicker higher up from their base than any other species. It's difficult to say which species has the potential to grow the tallest though, as the biggest specimens of each have almost certainly been cut down in the past 150 years, because... humans.
Considering the way pressure works based upon heights, (we use water height to pressurize our own plumbing), it would truthfully take a mechanical process to pump sap further.

This is the best photosynthesis video I’ve ever seen. Well done!👏🏼
This video isn't about photosynthetic.
Papa Pies It may not be the main theme, but it’s used to explain why trees have a height limit.
what would happen if u planted a tree in a zero gravity chamber. would it have no limitations?
I wonder if it would even grow without gravity?
How would you even define the height in zero gravity? And where do you expect the roots to be, or which direction the tree would go?
@@KafshakTashtak seeds can sprout 0g or just blow 50 billion getting a 130m tree in a hydroponic space base.
SAHM Well you could define it as the greatest distance between any two extremities of the tree.
roots show positive geotropism and shoots show negative geotropism, so i guess it would not be possible to grow a tree in a 0 gravity chamber😐
The animation on this one is awesome! I love the sound work on it too! (Especially the harmonica bird.)
So can trees grow taller on Mars or other planets with lower gravity? Would be interesting to see how tall they could get.
but the fact that trees need oxygen to grow ;v but space doesnt have it so :V
probably 360 meter or 1200 feet. since gravity is the limiting factor, mars is around 1/3rd earth gravity. if you built a giant dome on the moon then you could get a tree to 700 meters or 2300 feet. that would be taller then the current second highest building on earth. almost twice the height of the world trade centers.

Happy Pi day!
I can’t get over how good the animation is

I barely remember plant biology from my school days, making this video incredibly fascinating
what if you plant a tree upside down ?
You get a dead bush.
@@leonardoconstantino1540 over time the trunk will curve towards the sun. Trust me, I live practically on a mountain and i see it all the time
This is a little besides the main point of the video, but coast redwoods are taller than giant sequoias, as are the tallest douglas firs in the PNW and some mountain gums in Tasmania. Sequoias are the most massive trees, however, because their trunks stay thicker higher up from their base than any other species. It's difficult to say which species has the potential to grow the tallest though, as the biggest specimens of each have almost certainly been cut down in the past 150 years, because... humans.
I wish I could be like a tree

Sorry sir but you're not getting my like.
Your counterfeit profile picture has it's shuriken 7 pixles off center.
Considering the way pressure works based upon heights, (we use water height to pressurize our own plumbing), it would truthfully take a mechanical process to pump sap further.
Trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky. And we cut them to make papers and write our stupidity on them.
This is the actual quote.
나무가 자랄 수 있는 한계가 왜 그한계가 있는지에 대하여 배웠습니다. 나무는 영양분을 순환하게하여 나무에게 영양분을 공급하여야하는데 너무 나무가 커지면 중력의 힘이 커져 영양분 공급이 힘들어지기 때문에 나무의 크기의 한계를 갖는다는 것을 배웠습니다. 좋은 시간 감사합니다.
I always believed that trees would touch earth if they are planted on moon.
Yet, Another great video by Ted- Education!👍
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down...
Then you'll never know
