I found a beautiful stromatolite fossil on a hill in Wyoming, which was once an ocean. My fascination is the first amphibians, and the transition in eggs: wet, internal, dry that give them freedom from the sea. I have also read that the ginkgo was one of the earliest trees (200M), and was believed extinct until 1100, when examples were found in Buddhist monasteries.The ginkgo leaf veins radiate from the stem, while most leaves we see are branching.

[@JLin943]

I’ve accumulated an extensive collection of both personal finds and bought fossils, some very rare and pretty expensive, but my favorite is still my examples of stromatolites. It’s not the rarest of fossils, but there’s just something special about holding a once-living piece of prehistory and knowing that it’s over 3 billion years old. It’s crazy to think that such simple organisms like that diversified into hundreds of millions of various complex organisms.

[@JLin943]

It’s also crazy to think that, while sparsely distributed, living stromatolites still exist 3.5 billion years later.

[@monkeypec9041]

[@AngelEmfrbl]

@@monkeypec9041 Its the same situation with a different representative. Saying birds are dinosaurs is like saying cats are mammals. Unless you want to argue that cats and birds are not mammals and dinosaurs respectfully. Towards the end of the era of the Dinosaurs more and more "birds" were turning up, but, you had everythign between the fluffy Tyrannos to birds. You have birds with all modern bird features except things like beaks or they were missing the kneel bone in the chest. You have some with hands still and others with not. You had raptors that looked like they took a bird and pulled its skin ove its body. Evolution didn't care that these creatures were bird or otherwise, these dinosaurs just filled the niche and did the job and therefore were able to reproduce and produce off spring, its not like evolution has a direction so... Anything that works goes so long as it has its niche. The end of that era was a wild time because more and more feathered dinosaurs of all sorts of things and everything in between had risen and with the advent of feathers there was a possiblity it brought colour. So the late Cretaceous was a fantastic time between which was arid at times but had maginificant feathery dinosaurs of all walked of the Therapoid family, and with them brought colour. You would have difficulty point to something that looked like a bird and tell if it was 100% bird or not quite there. Thats the whole point of this.

We do not only use the Carbon dating method... www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/how-do-scientists-date-fossils-180972391/ Together with stratigraphic principles, radiometric dating methods are used in geochronology to establish the geologic time scale.[3] Among the best-known techniques are radiocarbon dating, potassium-argon dating and uranium-lead dating. By allowing the establishment of geological timescales, it provides a significant source of information about the ages of fossils and the deduced rates of evolutionary change. Radiometric dating is also used to date archaeological materials, including ancient artifacts. Different methods of radiometric dating vary in the timescale over which they are accurate and the materials to which they can be applied. Then there is Luminescence dating (including thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence) - a type of dating methodology that measures the amount of light emitted from energy stored in certain rock types and derived soils to obtain an absolute date for a specific event that occurred in the past. The method is a direct dating technique, meaning that the amount of energy emitted is a direct result of the event being measured. Better still, unlike radiocarbon dating, the effect luminescence dating measures increases with time. www.thoughtco.com/luminescence-dating-cosmic-method-171538 New developments in laser ablation mass spectrometry permit the in situ analysis of U-series isotopes, thus providing a rapid and virtually non-destructive dating method back to about 300,000 years.

Also stalked eyes is present in some groups but is not the most common (sessile eyes is the most common), see copepods, cephalocarids, anostracans, ostracods, mystacocarids and almost all groups, except some decapods.

Looks like im not the only neutral person under the debate

[@VeronicaGorositoMusic]

You don't have to believe in science. You must have a brain and focus on deep learning based on evidences, and then use your brain in a non-magical way. Hard to do for believers.

I'm so impressed by his pronunciation of all these big dinosaur names. He did it so flawlessly too as if it's no big deal to him lol

[@YatiAcharya]

Idk why nobody points it out but the intro to these videos is REALLY good.

[@Life-mq5ou]

[@revanthek1153]

what is story of the naming uranus and uranium ???

[@-yeme-]

Uranus was a god in ancient greek mythology, he was Zeus's granddad. thats where all the names of the planets come from, but sometimes they use the roman version.

[@dimitris.damigos]

Now "Uranus (Ουρανός)" is the modern greek word for the "Sky"

[@kyleegeep]

REVANTH E K look up cgp greys video on uranus

"first bird is archaeopterix" anchiornis huxleyi: am i a joke to you?

[@tatertom2641]

for some reason this is the second to top comment.

[@emersonmcdaniel2023]

hey guys um.. I was wondering if you could please correct the mistake? I know in a separate video you guys mentioned in a separate video about mammals evolving in the Triassic, however thats the only mention of it I've found. I'm sorry if this seems obnoxious, I just want to make sure you guys at least look into it. SciShow is normally accurate, like scary accurate. i just want to make sure you guys get more accurate information. sorry if this came off as rude! (I have a hard time telling if something is rude) Thanks!

[@IamMissPronounced]

This was by far the nicest suggestion/critique comment ever. Bless you

[@lcyphah]

I see Kabuto's Fosil, i click.

[@SysterYster]

Darn it... just realized you had too many interesting videos... subbed. :)

[@ohellis1115]

This dude's style made me get "All Star" by Smashmouth stuck in my head

[@Rakshasa1986]

This is why I prefer zerg and pokemon. Evolution is a simple matter with them. XD

[@smurfyday]

Rakshasa Simple things for simple minds.

[@FreedomAnderson]

Pokémon evolution is an exaggerated form of metamorphosis.

[@ShadaOfAllThings]

But... But Juramia was a bullfrog...

[@audreydarksky7168]

I thought "juramaia" was a bullfrog

[@frankdvorak3644]

great presentation, we can never be 100% sure but we can always wonder.

[@bornjusticerule5764]

the numbers that come before he says "years ago" in this video are insane WILD.
