    How can a "thumbs up" sign help us remember five processes that impact evolution? The story of the Five Fingers of Evolution gives us a clever way of understanding change in gene pools over time.
    Lesson by Paul Andersen, animation by Alan Foreman.

    TLDR for students whose teachers are asking what the fingers represent:
    Pinky: Chance can happen, resetting the gene pool
    Ring: Non random mating can determine how often people with certain genes reproduce. If they’re unfavorable, the odds of them mating and passing on their genes are low
    Middle: Mutation can add a new gene that changes up the frequency of all other genes
    Index: Gene flow/movement can change the frequency of the gene pool if people with different genes come to a new area and other people leave, taking their genes with them.
    Thumb: Adaptation will change genes to adapt to the surrounding environment

      The theory of evolution is a dogma without any scientific evidence. It was introduced not for scientific reasons but for ideological reasons. There are no fossils that prove evolution. Millions of fossils prove no evolution. Living things did not appear by evolution but by the Cambrian explosion. And traces have been found that prove that people from the times when Darwinists claimed that people were half animals were fully human. There was no such thing as evolution. And countless studies in laboratories have failed to turn up any examples of beneficial mutations. Almighty Allah created living things not by evolution but by the Cambrian explosion. The functions of all organs, which Darwinists call obsolete organs in living things, have been revealed. In other words, there is no such thing as an expired organ in humans or other living things.

    Keep in mind this is a 5-minute high-level over view ostensibly designed for children and people not previously familiar (or perhaps even interested) in the subject matter. There are a lot of intricacies and interdependencies that have to be cut or glossed over. Mutation, as a process, is one of the mechanisms that drives evolution, even if specific, individual mutations must continue to be selected for and propagated to take hold in the population.

    Science is a whole different 'breed' of writing. Most people cannot grasp the dense, thought-driven concepts in long, drawn out science papers because when you are writing scientific research papers you are basically cramming all of your information into the best words you possibly can and you are writing it specifically towards people with a bachelors/masters degree. Its a lot rougher to get through than normal papers and is much more specific, which denotes it the term "scientific literacy."

    I wholly stand by my statement. Evolution is not dependent on mutation. Evolution is a process in which organisms change over time. As the video clearly shows this is done in a few different ways. Mutations are one of them. Mutations aren't solely responsible for evolution, Genetic Drift and population mechanics, as well as biased mating or abiotic factors all go into the process of evolution, Remove mutations from the list and you still have a working system.

    The English word theory was derived from a technical term in philosophy in Ancient Greek. The word theoria, θεωρία, meant "a looking at, viewing, beholding", and referring to contemplation or speculation, as opposed to action.[1] Theory is especially often contrasted to "practice" (from Greek praxis, πρᾶξις) a Greek term for "doing", which is opposed to theory because theory involved no doing apart from itself.

    When Brazeau and Ahlberg measured this bone in Panderichthys, they discovered it was much shorter than in earlier fish. It also was not directly connected to the jaw joint. It appeared to be in the middle of moving to a different part of the skull where it would become an ear bone -- a migration that would take tens of millions of years to complete.

    1) Lead 206 can be formed by processes other than decay (Neutron cross section)
    2) Based on the assumption that no event or condition in the past has occured that could have altered decay rates (extremely unlikely)
    3) Uranium 238 is water soluable, so water can carry this element, depleting or enhancing estimated dates

    It is at this point which we realize that the differences which built up between the two populations over the many years has finally culminated in the emergence of a new species which is different enough to hold its own place in the world. Now it contends with interspecies disputes over resources or space, eventually one would gain the edge over the other, causing extinction for one. All this time each individual still competes with others in the same species in a never ending genetic arms race.

    Now I will refer back to the story of our individual.
    Our individual is in competition with members of his species. The long lasting flood was a random event, the competitors are random in that they are the individuals within his species he is competing with. However the non random result is that our individual survives due to his webbed feet, a trait which his competitors don't have. Hence we have a non random result from a seemingly random assortment of factors. It's not math, It's Biology.

    2) Macroevolution can only happen if new genotypes are created
    3) In order for a mutation to enter the gene pool, it must represent a functional gene that is better suited for survival so it will be preferred by natural selection
    4) The conditions in #3 have never been observed, and no theoretical examples have even been put forth
    5) Therefore, Macroevolution has never been observed, and has no theoretical basis

    In order to understand this concept, you must remember that the earth's topology was not always what it is right now. Theories such as plate tectonics and continental drift all show that the earths topology has drastically changed. Did you also know that if the entire surface of the earth (including the ocean floor) was leveled, water would cover the earth by 1.7 miles?

    If you don't understand it at this point, there's little chance you ever will.
    Nature doesn't "know", it's not an entity. Things unfit to survive die off, it's that simple. Those able to adapt to their environment prosper and spread. The mutations and changes happen at random, and those that get the beneficial ones take the next step forward in evolution.

    To add to what I said earlier. The reasons why we have distinct races today is the same reason why we have pure dog breeds. By frequent inbreeding of similar types of people, genetic variation begin to diminish causing a very homogenious population. Due to our nature, people who are alike tend to band together and often alienate those who are different, this accelerates the process.

    You cannot make a new theory out of thin air. To come to a scientific theory you first have to go through the process of the Scientific Method (Question->Hypothesis->Prediction->Test->Analyse). After you have gathered all the tests, evidence, answered the scientific questions, and made a conclusion then you have come to a scientific theory.

You suggest that an artist should be used to visualize such transformations, but where would he get the information from? I could not, honestly, provide it, and if I were to leave it to artistic license, would that not mislead the reader?"

    I am not sure what experiences you have been through to make you think that way but what I have been taught is that the scientific community will accept their mistakes given enough evidence and time to test it. Many of my teachers and peers believe this and I personally believe that the purpose of science is to understand this world. If evidence appears to contradict current theories, that should be brought to light.

    Through the expression of certain genes found within the genome, these genes are selected through various means, Some are through simple dominant/ recessive interactions between marker strands of DNA which signal various proteins found within the nucleus to begin transcription, Transcription reverts DNA to RNA and eventually into Proteins, thee proteins then form structures which provide the phenotype which we see in one another, This is the emerging field of Proteomics.

    Just depends how you define the word. As the speaker says, microevolution means shifting the existing genes around, like is done in breeding or domestication. This process alone cannot lead to macroevolution, and neither can natural selection alone.

    Many mutations don't yield a better outcome, but occasionally it does. Imagine a small organism without eyes. A small change in only a few cells to make them sensitive to light can be a huge advantage, so that mutation has a chance of sticking around in the gene pool. However, if a mutation happens that would, say, make it unable to breathe, it would just die and clear the bad mutation from the gene pool. It's random chance but it builds up from what's there but can be better, step by step.

      The theory of evolution is a dogma without any scientific evidence. It was introduced not for scientific reasons but for ideological reasons. There are no fossils that prove evolution. Millions of fossils prove no evolution. Living things did not appear by evolution but by the Cambrian explosion. And traces have been found that prove that people from the times when Darwinists claimed that people were half animals were fully human. There was no such thing as evolution. And countless studies in laboratories have failed to turn up any examples of beneficial mutations. Almighty Allah created living things not by evolution but by the Cambrian explosion. The functions of all organs, which Darwinists call obsolete organs in living things, have been revealed. In other words, there is no such thing as an expired organ in humans or other living things.

    BTW: It was some 19th century theologian who 'calculated' the origin of existence using all the 'begats' in the Old Testament. He wasn't accounting for 'creative license' and the inaccuracy inherent in the unrecorded histories of our ancestors. See 'Inherit the Wind' the wonderful story of the Scopes Monkey Trial starring Spencer Tracy.

    over a massive time frame, yes. It's simpler than you think. Genes have been discovered that control whole body segments at once. As vertebrates (and many invertebrates) all have a similar body plan (imagine a stick figure...) we're really not very far removed. A single mutation, and you could be drastically different.

    Really you should look this up online.
    This subject goes into lots of stuff like laws, hypotheses, various types theories, theorems, models, etc. Theories can be much more useful than a simple law which is used in theories often called postulates.It is a series of postulates (laws) to provide an explanation of the observed laws-- useful in prediction making with variable conditions. A law can't cope with varying conditions or attempt to explain how the condition causes the observation.

    Panderichthys, Elpistostege (mid-late Devonian, about 370 Ma) -- These "panderichthyids" are very tetrapod-like lobe-finned fish. Unlike Eusthenopteron, these fish actually look like tetrapods in overall proportions (flattened bodies, dorsally placed orbits, frontal bones! in the skull, straight tails, etc.) and have remarkably foot-like fins.

    Mutation leads to a wide variation base from which the 'fittest' survive to reproduce. Nature doesn't *know* what's required for survival, but the organisms gifted with the best random ability to survive and reproduce, do so.

  • @redofspades

    We lost these abilities because they were not needed,but what drives evolution to head a certain direction?Why did a dog get teeth and a bird get wings and how does nature know what is necessary for survival?This question is very complicated to me.

    The genes for red hair and fair skin are linked. A little too complex to get into in 500 characters or less, but red hair is linked to the MCR1 gene on chromosome 16 and indicates a low concentration of eumelanin throughout the body WHICH allows for greater generation of vitamin D in low-UV light, which is the case in the north where daylight hours are shorter and the intensity of the rays lower due to the angle at which they enter the atmosphere compared to the equatorial regions.

    Most people don't know that micro evolution doesn't mean a small change and macro evolution is not a big change, macro just means two animals cant breed (or their offspring is sterile) and micro means that animals can still breed. ie Chihuahuas and Dalmatians can still breed (In theory) although their difference appearance is great.

  • @Koba4329

    each correct number is like a beneficial mutation, something that happened in the coding that went wrong and caused it to have a better colour for its environment or what ever, and this is kept because it gives it a better chance of surviving. the bad mutations or incorrect numbers are tossed because they aren't favorable. this isn't permutation, permutation is when you grab the balls and jumble them and just keep jumbling all 10 balls hoping to get 1-10 in 1 go. this is completely different.

    Crossing over does not result in mutation. Mutation refers to the formation of new allele (different alleles are different forms of a gene, for example the hair gene can have red allele or green allele). Crossing over only causes new combinations of alleles but does not create new allele for the gene.

  • @LupineFear
    @LupineFear 11 років тому

    Speciation occurs when a population can no longer mate with another population of the same species. Another thing is that the offspring cannot be sterile, this is why horses and donkeys aren't considered the same species, mules are sterile. Look into Ring species, that provides answers to many other questions you have on speciation.

    towards the end he says that none of them lead to adaptation but doesn't the first example, where a small number survives an epidemic, mean that the entire population is now immune, or adapted.

      That's natural selection. Those with immunity survive and pass on their immunity to their offspring. I think he was more referring to an event that could cause a population bottleneck, reducing population size and therefore genetic variation in the population.
