Here's a tip to the students in the comment section! If you open the transcript (the 3 dots right next to "save") and then do central + f, you can search up a key word from the question and the word will get highlighted in the transcript! :) But seriously, start paying attention XD
if you’re seeing this i lived through a global pandemic and had to do online schooling and it was one of the most challenging times in my life my bio teacher assigned me this... but ive made it and now I’m successful.
Doing a "project" with this video involved. I would say "thank you" for all the excellent information, but now I have to fill out a set of short-response questions based on this, so no thanks.
The answer for number 14 is; "Male elephants use their tusks for fighting each other to claim a female mate, for defending herds of elephants or baby elephants, and lastly they use it for eating their food or digging for water.
Unfortunately, the series of genes that code for tuskless female elephants are deadly in males. This phenomena could in the medium to long term have deleterious effects on elephant populations because it will lead to fewer males. A lack of tusks will also have a negative effect on their diet. The range of food that these animals will be able to consume will be narrowed considerably. So a trait that may be advantageous in the short run could hasten the extinction of these elephant populations
Say No to illegal poaching for rhinos horns and elephants ivory and animals fur and help protect and give charities the help they need to catch this cruelties that’s happening in are world please donate to your nearest charities you be making a huge difference to rhinos and the elephants that are such beautiful creatures ....
Here today, 12/9/24 and I just finished my assignment, I lived through a pandemic and learned a lot about why female elephants are tuskless, if anyone needs any answers like my comment or reply and I’ll feel free to help
I don't think this has anything to do with adapting, or bodily reactions. With a full, healthy population a tuskless male would rarely be allowed to breed. As more big tuskers are poached and killed, the remaining tuskless elephants breed and pass on their traits, thus creating a new generation of tuskless elephants. I don't know how important tusks are for female status, but in males I believe tusks are very important.
The issue here is that African Elephants have tusk for both male and female. Asian Elephants are the only species of elephants that male have tusk and female don't. What we're seeing here is that some African Elephant species are now adopting the tuskless genes, whether an adaptation to poaching or not, is up for debate.
@@WatcherMovie008 It's not up for debate at all. Poaching IS the cause and the Elephants are not adapting either. There has always been a less than 10% population of female African Elephants that are tuskless. These are ignored by poachers while those with tusks are poached/removed from the gene pool. The ones passing down their genes are increasingly the ones left alive, the tuskless elephants, who half the time cannot have a male elephant. It is a bad scenario over all for Elephants.
Scientists, vets - is this making it harder for the females when foraging, moving objects, protecting the herd from predators & self- defence. Less advantageous for performing daily activities ?
I was thiking of this study vis-a-vis a study that says that elephant traits are adopting to poaching. I was thinking that the males, for the sake of self- preservation, their bodies/hormones/brains will reduce the growth of tusks. Accordingly, tusk less elephant males may evolve in time.
We are all here because of bio classes but I won't lie when I say this video is interesting as hell
Bhn by
Literally 😂
Wouldn’t be taking bio in college if this stuff wasn’t crazy cool
Doing a bio report on natural selection of elephant tusks, this was extremely helpful, thank you!
Literally everyone here is just here for bio

You taught me something new, thank you.
Thank you I really needed this I’ve watched the video 4 times trying to find the answer
if you’re seeing this i lived through a global pandemic and had to do online schooling and it was one of the most challenging times in my life my bio teacher assigned me this... but ive made it and now I’m successful.
word
Is anyone here doing a bio assignment during the quarantine 💀
literally everyone in the comments
Yes sir but it esssss what it esss
yep
Yup
ahaha yes i am
is anyone else here because of a bio assignment?
Yes
Same
SuperAlly yup
Yep
Ayy bio gang -->
rumor has it 4 years later comments are still hearted
Nice try buddy

Bruh my is due today
@@saltwatersweets i guess we’ll never know
4:45 "Surveys conducted by pool and colleagues, indicated the 33% of females 10-20 years old were tuskless."

Those occasional music queues have me on edge...
Doing a biology assignment on this. Very helpful resorce.
For an assignment? I'm doing this for homework, rip
@@Cr4zyRuski Do you have any notes on this stuff?
0:23 oh that's nice-

Anyone have the answers for questions 1- all of them😂 lmao imagine we are all doing the same assignment
Bro imagine just our teachers have a cult and they just spread around the hardest assignments and ways to say “WONG!!!!!”

Ms. Coleman's science class was here
Nice.
Now this is what we call an epic gaming moment

Lmaooo
No Jayden, dont. It's cringe. You're giving WY a bad rep.
We will be the storm that will take the comments section

Hey honors bio from Dr. Kash how are y'all
yall here for the bio assignment, im here for my ecology class for college
Biology gang!
No
Somebody needs to show this to Mike Huckabee and Kirk Cameron. Evolutions can happen fast.
Damn, I love this channel. It's so interesting ^^

Sad, I feel bad for the elephants
good thing they don't have feelings
5:06 that elephant looks so depressed
OMG THAT’S WHAT I THOUGHT TOO

Great report- educational on Human impact on nature. Bravissimo 👏👏👏🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for sharing...
guys what’s the answer to question 2 i got 186 but it’s wrong
Biology assignment?
If any of my students see this comment, stop reading comments and start doing your assignment! :)
Omg MR Khalid,
I’m not in your class. Probably not in your school but pre A.P bio so hopefully it’s on the same level as your school
I want a Bio teacher that interacts with their students as much as this man does
👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
VERY INTERESTING
anyone from mr. willard's class?
Man how I hate assignments that I need to see videos for evidence.
😅
I don’t get this 😢
Those are some swanky elephants
whats the answers
So we’re all doing bio assignments 😭
Their tasks were sold to buy weapons and armory
Tuskless gang rise up
Why did she pick the worst shotgun in the game tho
BIO ON TOP
Mr ramnanan made me do ts 🤦♂️ gmt
anyone from boulder creek
Yesssiirrrrr

Bio work over quarantine 🙄
same 7-7

My science project during quartine.
where are my ib ess kids from sas???
Interesting.
no you
Here in May 2024?
first one not here for some bio class.
online school has brought me here :(
Ms. Saku’s class was here
Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace would have gratified to see their theory of natural selection being confirmed in the flesh.
Anyone know how many males without tusks were found? Doing an assignment
Here for Bio assignment
Yay genetics assignment
make this the most like comment in the comments section (instead of an egg it'll be me)
