As a biology student, you have no idea how these visuals help me understand. Thank you 🙏🏻

This animated version is easier to understand than my teacher's drawing. Thank you

@@kanzu3074 yes lol My teacher was like "My drawing is bad,but hope you understand" Me, *IN My BRAINE* : ummm...sir I already understood it anyway,you Said this a billion times already,why are you drawing 😣😟" Lol seriously exactly what I thought at that time

[@muhammadibrahimjunejo2520]

So sad that you guys point out your teacher's mistakes.

[@w_aliali4748]

literally

[@just-a-fella3212]

There is something about microbiology teachers that none of them can clearly draw or explain to a class the differences and relationships between DNA, genes, allels, chromosomes,...etc. And the more a student asks for further clarification, the more messy and vague the teacher's explanation becomes. And even worse are psychology teachers who are generally unable to clearly define their terms and mark the differences between such concepts as feelings and emotions, consciousness and mind, thought and awareness, intelligence and intellect,...etc. And teachers seem more muddle headed and inarticulate nowadays than they were several decades ago. It is concerning.

[@travelers8607]

I like how you make point of how chromosomes actually look the majority of the time.

[@DrBunhead]

A rare example of science communication that sequentially unfolds only the relevant information in a simple, yet accurate, manner, targeted to the audience level. The visual hooks are always reinforcing the underlying concept (rather than distracting from it). The learning gradient and concept ladder are elegantly structured and paced to draw the audience comfortably through increasing levels of understanding. Great work.

[@janeloh1998]

Straight to the point, and you even review at the end. I appreciate your work!

[@autello5300]

Hi! All scientific evidence to date indicates that life can come only from previously existing life. To believe that even a “simple “ living cell arose by chance from nonliving chemicals requires a huge leap of faith. What do you think?

[@claree_millaa]

your a teacher and i have a question that has been bugging me and it isnt anywhere on the internet! are there 23 chromosomes in the human body all together or 23 in each cell.

Thank you so much for having these. I’m taking Biological Psychology this semester and these helped me get around some concepts.

[@oloplyflapdar7384]

Thanks for doing this, understanding of biology is crucial for so many other fields of science, from medicine, population dynamics all the way to ecology (and more of course).

This is so fascinating to me. I try to learn as much as I possibly can about chromosomes due to the fact that my daughter has 2 extremely rare chromosome mutations, she has 16p13.11 microduplication and 14q23.3q24.1 duplication too

[@danamummabear9799]

@Hamish Channel No, down syndrome is a duplication of chromosome 21 aka Trisomy 21. My daughter has not got any duplications on chromosome 21, my auntie however does have down syndrome

[@4c00h]

2:50 well actually the mother cells are the ones that decide how those cells will be produced for each part of the body.. sometimes you get mutations which lead to diseases as the mother cell no longer has the proper "source code" to compile the cell; Hence, stem cell therapy! Awesome video, thanks!

I'm going to show this video to my biology class. You explain it very well. However, I wish you would not describe cell division as "reproducing". This is misleading and may confuse students who may already have the misconception that reproducing and cell division are the same thing. Other than that, this is a great video.

[@roidroid]

Can't mutations also happen during your entire lifetime? I guess they mostly only matter to evolution if they happen early enough in development to make it into your gonad cells (so you can then pass it on to your offspring). But i guess it's still possible for a mutation to occur to JUST a relevant gonad cell, which then produces/becomes a mutated sperm or egg cell. This could happen any time in your life, even during adulthood, but it probably won't effect your life coz it's just one cell (unless it grows into a cancer).

[@StatedClearly]

Yes, they happen every day but don't ever make it to dominate your body unless they happen super early. Any mutation, early or late, that happens in the germ line, can make it into sperm and thus, effect evolution.

[@kirkhullinger1934]

i thoht mutations happened during the (building new life) stage. mutations are passed along to offspring??
