Explains natural selection in simple terms. A must for anyone who is confused by the Theory of Evolution, and wonders why it's taught in classrooms. This video is part of the 'Made Easy' series that explains the history of our world, from the Big Bang to the human migration out of Africa.

Charles Darwin was not the first to discover and write about natural selection.He popularized the idea.Also Darwin viewed natural selection as a process that fueled evolution.Before him it was not viewed that way.

The variation that we observe are from genes that are already there, all by brothers look different but there are no new genes, it doesn't matter how much you select these genes and get different variation you are not going to get a new gene, for that you need changes in the DNA but that's a different kind of change then the variation that we observe sitting in our armchair, which is reshuffling of genes

yes wow that little comment is proof that what happenned in real and for which we have so much evidense, is false.
good work.
saying he plays too many mmorpg's makes something that so clearely happened false.
a book written by a guy 2 millenia ago MUST tell the truth about evrything cause back then a random person was so smart, is it not?

neutral. almost all mutations are neutral.

not to mention that the mutation has to be present in the female BEFORE birth, and in the eggs specifically since a mutation in any other part of the body wont even be passed on to offspring - it has to be present in both the sperm and the eggs of a male and female which must then mate with each other and assuming they are even fertile which like i said is unlikely since 99% of mutations are harmful, could possibly be passed on to offspring if it survives which most offspring with mutations DONT

=mate that tall hypotheticus to the small hypotheticus and you get an average hypotheticus, no evolution has occured=
Evolution from one species to another does not occur in a single generation, as was explained in the video.
