I think the Professor is doing a great deal of service to the community. I was not interested in zoology until well beyond the compulsory and tertiary education systems, and there is a lack of accessible content adapted for people who cannot adhere to a traditional school schedule but are still interested in learning. It is slowly being filled, but by none so eloquent and informative as this series so far. As a suggestion, some "further reading" may be of interest to some viewers including myself.

I remember reading about a sponge farm that slices off all but a single bit of a sponge to harvest it, and the little bit simply grows back in time. It is a little strange to think there are arguably multiple bodies of the same animal likely owned by different persons across the world.

What's the weird sponge on a cord with a balloon-looking structure on top at 8:19?

The deep sea sponges and corals (specifically) are sometimes known as Lophelia which I think is a beautiful word for organisms in such a strange environment.

You had me till the sponges. Why aren’t any of them working minimum wage for a crab or living in a pineapple? Seems fake to me.

@@DocBrownsZoologyVids I enjoyed your presentations and illustrations-editing but I am of the opinion that protozoa lacking photosynthetic ability and structures eg Photosystem 1 are unicellular animals and that unicellular algae are at least extant indicators of plant heritage. If you are at a University you might be interested in " From Chemistry to Life on Earth " coming out later this year by Austin Macauley Publishers as an acquisition for your students. 290 supporting references.

I looked it up and sponges actually did exist before the oxygen in the earth became prevalent. So they were able to evolve because they lived in the water and they were one of the few species that survived the great dying.

Is very creative and wacky. I can see that you watched too much bill nye and beakman. Comedy is one of the very best ways of teaching people hard to understand material. I have been studying the primordial Earth a lot recently.And just wrote an article on cyanobacterium in the Archean era. I believe sponges came after the great dying.Is that correct? Or did they exist before?Bacterium change the atmosphere of the earth and evolved to survive?

So what’s up with siphonophores? How did they evolve? Did the separate organism making up the siphonophore once exist separate from each other and come together like multicellularity life kinda happened?

The more I study evolution the more inclined I am to believe in God; there is no way this intricate, harmonious process is accidental.

That a Higher Power than us reached fathomless intelligence and harmony before humans and then set up natural laws, such relativity, and divine evolution, is much more believable then the teaching that that a series of blind accidents and blind mutations created all of this.

@@curtisw1706They aren’t blind accidents, it is a deep process that creates these things. From the biology, to the chemistry behind that, to the physics behind that. Much deeper knowledge and intelligence found there than a man made concept used to explain what they don’t understand.
