Charles Darwin encountered a tiny fox-like creature during his famous voyage but instead of discovering its fascinating evolutionary story, he just knocked it on the head with his geology hammer.

Paul Andersen reviews the major concepts within the second unit of the new AP Biology framework. He starts by describing how life is organized into three domains. He explains how the history of life on the planet is...

A brown thrasher knows a thousand songs. A wood thrush can sing two pitches at once. A mockingbird can match the sounds around it - including car alarms. These are just a few of the 4,000 species of songbirds. How do these birds learn...

Hank explains speciation - the evolutionary process by which new biological species arise - in terms of finches, ligers, mules, and dogs.

Hank gets real with us in a discussion of evolution - it's a thing, not a debate. Gene distribution changes over time, across successive generations, to give rise to diversity at every level of biological organization.

"Survival of the Fittest" sounds like a great WWE show but today we're talking about that phrase as it relates to Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace. Darwin and Wallace are at the heart of understanding evolution and natural selection....

Interactions between species are what define ecological communities, and community ecology studies these interactions anywhere they take place. Although interspecies interactions are mostly competitive, competition is pretty dangerous,...

Evolution is the net change in organisms or a population over the span of many generations. This change in organisms or populations happens through DNA mutations and reconbination and is passed down to the next generation through...

Or adaptive radiation, the divergence of life forms from a common ancestor, as they adapt to different environments.

Dive into the story of how Charles Darwin's discovery of diverse finch species in the Galápagos led to revolutionary insights into natural selection. From beak variations to adaptation strategies, this video breaks down the key...

Take a virtual trip to the Galapagos Islands and discover the unique iguanas that inhabit this paradise. Learn about the marine iguana's impressive swimming abilities and the land iguana's symbiotic relationship with local finches....

Explore the concept of natural selection, a cornerstone of evolutionary biology, through Charles Darwin's groundbreaking work. Learn how Darwin's observations of finches and other species during his voyage on the HMS Beagle led to his...

A video entitled “The Evidence for Evolution” which explores the origin of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and then focuses on the evidence used to study and support Darwin’s theory.

Evolution “is the net change in organisms or a population over the span of many generations.” This change in organisms or populations happens through DNA mutations and reconbination and is passed down to the next generation through...

This video introduces the concept of speciation and the role of Darwin's finches in understanding evolution. It explains how these birds, with their distinct species, provide evidence for the theory of natural selection and evolution....

Humans and baby birds appear to be very different creatures, but scientists are studying certain birds because they learn their songs in a similar way that humans learn speech. A new study from University of Texas Southwestern Medical...

This video discusses Charles Darwin's theory of evolution and how it was received at the time it was published. It starts with Darwin's observations during his world expedition in the 19th century, particularly on the finches of the...

The study of finches led to the development of one of the most important scientific theories of all time. In December 1831 a naturalist called Charles Darwin boarded the HMS Beagle, bound on a surveying voyage of South America. Whilst...

Fossils discovered within rocks led scientists to begin to change their ideas on the creation of life on earth. Charles Darwin's 5 year voyage on HMS Beagle led to him collecting different flora and fauna from the countries he visited....

This video explains the concept of adaptation and natural selection in evolution. It uses examples of bison and finches to demonstrate how variations that help organisms survive in their environment are passed on to future generations....

Scientists are working to save the Mangrove Finch from extinction in the Galapagos islands, which are the birds that helped confirm Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.
