Speciation and Extinction

12th - Higher Ed
Paul Andersen details the evolutionary processes of speciation and extinction. Stickleback evolution in Lake Loberg is used as example of rapid speciation. Adaptive radiation is illustrated using the Hawaiian honeycreeper. A brief...

Speciation

12th - Higher Ed
Paul Andersen explains how reproductive isolation can eventually lead to speciation. Three main barriers to gene flow are included: geographic, pre-zygotic and post-zygotic. Both allopatric and sympatric speciation are discussed. A...

Stickleback Evolution

9th - 12th Standards
About 70 percent of the genes of the stickleback fish are the same as humans. In the video, scholars further explore the stickleback fish and its history, from being removed from Loberg Lake to their change and comeback. Over time, these...

The Origin of Species: Lizards in an Evolutionary Tree

6th - 12th
Different islands in the Caribbean have very similar species of anole lizards, which each have their own place in the ecosystem. Researchers did several studies to determine whether the anoles evolved into the different species then...

Formation of New Species by Speciation

9th - 12th Standards
Why is Australia home to the world's only population of kangaroos? The answer? Speciation! Biology scholars discover the factors that cause new species to emerge through an engaging video as part of a Fuse School playlist on...

Speciation

9th - 12th Standards
Darwin believed species came from other pre-existing species. Now we know it is more complicated than that. The video focuses on speciation and patterns of evolution.

Speciation: Of Ligers and Men

9th - 12th Standards
Ligers grow at a rate of 2.2 pounds every second day, thus by the end of their first year, they can weigh up to 364 pounds. Ligers are the subject of a video the looks at hybrids and shows viewers how speciation can occur via...

Bozeman Science: Stickleback Evolution

9th - 10th
Paul Andersen describes microevolution and macroevolution in the stickleback fish of Loberg Lake. He describes how anadramous fish repopulated the lake after poisoning and adapted to the new environment through natural selection. He also...
