    Generalists to Specialists is a continuum and each species evolves at different points along this continuum. Humans are more at the generalists end whereas say the koala bear or a monarch butterfly would be more specialized. Specialization helps a species reduce competition with other species as it evolves it's own niche. It also makes the species more susceptible to failure to adapt to environmental change.

    • @WHY-mi8ng
      @WHY-mi8ng Рік тому +2

      Well inheriting acquired traits is a topic of epigenetics so lets start from DNA so your DNA is nothing more then just a recepi for making structures like proteins, enzymes, etc and a trait is some thing which is shown by your specific gene for example if you have black eyes it means that your DNA contain that black color eyes gene well from long time after the discovery of DNA most people and scientists started to know more about it its features, properties, behaviour and how it forms a life and for the most of the time they ignored the fact that how Epigenetics can affect our genes and how it can change or help us survive so epigenetics is basically is studying that how over environment affect a genome or DNA ..... For example when someone go into depression for a long time some of your genes/DNA gona change bcz of that change in environment and after that you acquire that change in your inheritance and now what happens that you'll gona transfer that inheritance to your next generation but most of the time the changes that are due to Epigenetics are not permanent .....same you can see in case of diabetes which is influenced by some environmental factor and you insulin producing gene stop working that'll be inheriting acquired traits....

    Something seems incongruent between this and some of his other lectures. The fact that his 'oversimplification' of sexual selection is with regards to the male dominance hierarchy, suggests that this is the main method of sexual selection. If this were true, then why is it that when he talks about intelligence and various other traits, using a bell curve, that males have a wider distribution. He uses this to justify by saying something like 'well yes more men are at the top, but more men are also at the bottom, because of the greater distribution'. Surely if females' sexual selection was more prominent than males' sexual selection, the distribution of traits would be smaller amongst males?

    • @Dubbadizzo86
      @Dubbadizzo86 2 роки тому

      Men are more expendable, which increases variability comparitively. If evolution had to choose a sex to experiment on, it's better with men than with women. In a tribe of 20 men and 20 women, if all but one of the 20 women die, the tribe is doomed. Cant repopulate because it takes 9 months before she can become pregnant again. But if all but one of the men die, he can impregnate all 20 women, and the tribe survives. So evolution experiments with men more than women because if the experiment goes poorly, no big deal. This is why women occupy a more average range, and men occupy a more varied range.
      Not just with intelligence by the way, it's with everything. It's the same with height. Even though men are on average taller than women, they also vary in their height more than women. Shaquille o'neal on one end, Danny Devito on the other.
      So it's not about sexual selection. It's about tribe survivability that generates the variability among males.

      Im 2 years late, BUT EXACTLY. THIS IS EXACTLY TRUE. Except its only valid in environments where women are free to choose in the first place, which... in the last 8000 to 12000 years has been pretty much non existant (patriarchies, this correlates with agriculture and social systems based on it), where most women since then reproduced almost 3 times as much as men, because the men controlled the hierarchies, but they fought each other, and the most obedient and careful ones who kept an order of domination stable (society, entreprises, military etc) reproduced. But modern human haplogroups (like us with complex speech and and abstraction) existed for at least 50 000 years all around the planet in considerable numbers.. in that time reproduction was much more uniform as nature did the job in selection, and both sexes had same selection power.

    The environment is not shifting around "randomly." Perhaps to a gimp it seems this way.
    To a physicist, it's behaving deterministically. At least at some very critical levels, otherwise we'd be unable to predict various interactions (which we are.) There are unpredictable elements, but attributing our inability to predict behaviour to randomness, (or a god/gods - as religions do) instead of paucity of knowledge, is purpose-sapping, ineffectual, and incongruent with what we've learned from historical behaviours.
    Epigenetics would be a worthless study as well, if inherited traits determining suitability for the current environmental state were constantly undermined by newly printed "random" universal states. The attributes studied by epigeneticists only work within a determined, or, at least, an overwhelmingly determined, universe. Ditto "sexual selection" - something he has absolute faith in, despite his paradoxical previous claim that randomness governs selection.
    He is so lazy with his thinking. His logical incoherences point to someone very confused about science and its methodology.
    This is why Peterson's field is part of the "soft sciences." It lacks the empirical and rational rigour of actual science. You can get away with murder.

      There's the kicker. If nothing is random, and something cannot come from nothing, then where did god come from?
