Glad you enjoyed it!

A lot of creationists online. And on the 7th day, god rested and did some coding.

I fully agree, but would even go back much further, Neanderthal, & even homo-Erectus , like Erectus were successful until that Volcano 80,000 years ago around Southern India (if I remember right), took them out :( Basic language, (not written), but our most recent ancestors could make stone tools & organize hunts & more, by what, grunting & sign language! Then again if they were able to have an organized sign language, I would think they had the know how to have a rudimentary language , I think they’re Not giving them enough credit ! Neanderthals voice box would have given them a squeaky higher pitched voice (Not what u would think them being robust & burley.), don’t know about Erectus , but even most dogs over life time learn about 400 words, obviously can’t talk but hardest part is there, relating speech to communicate wants, needs & actions, & most important the relationship of Names if Erectus had a voice box, would think basic verbal speech would have been a big asset with there out of Africa expansion Eastward

@@ivanwigmore So would I, to perhaps at least a million years ago, when it is thought (given the archaeological evidence from fire pits) that Homo Erectus invented cooking, an activity that would have required communication, as well. I only stated at least 30,000 to 50,000 years ago as a rough guesstimate that would be more readily acceptable to people like the speaker in this video.

@@GaryR55 there is a lot of evidence to support Neanderthals cooking their food, and even storing shellfish to keep it fresh. Language must go back further?

Good math, but everyone makes mistakes. Overall, I did enjoy the lecture.

I'm glad you. caught that too. She is going to see that and kick herself. I think she knows that but misspoke, although that's a little hard to believe, since she must have thought about that a lot, and if she knew it was about 2.5 per year, it's hard to believe she would say 3 million per year.

Clickbait

"I wonder if the "mutation clock" runs at the same rate in all species?" Apparently, no. Molecular clocks need to be calibrated. That is, we need to compare the number of mutations accumulated over a known time span in order to estimate how long it took between the compared lineages diverged. "Could mutations occur at the same rate in the highly conserved parts of the genome" Random mutations, by definition, must occur at the same rate everywhere. Otherwise they wouldn't be random. "not passed to subsequent generations because most of the time they are lethal?" At least detrimental. Some of those regions could be related to fertility, for example. Then a mutation there might not be lethal, even in a broader sense (meaning, being unfit to survive), yet it would be selected out immediately anyway.

I like where you are going with this. New ideas are eye opening. 👁

Only European and some African are lactose tolerant.

@@richarddiaz5165 There are lactose tolerant people around the world, it's just not the majority.

Lactase persistent is a popular phrase in some circles.

Maybe most don’t know

You thought most lactose is intolerant of humans?

Cheese and butter are low enough in lactose that lactose intolerant individuals can happily consume them.

So would you consider H. neanderthalensis (neanderthals) human?

Dennis Mathias Humans have Neanderthal DNA, so a few lineages of Neanderthals are now human. I'm also pretty sure Neanderthal are considered a type of human. Back when there were "types" of humans lol, weird thought.

@@ManicPandaz That's not true. Africans do NOT have neanderthal DNA. Whites, asians, Native Americans, etc. DO have H.n. DNA (2%-5%). You could argue that neanderthal is human but they typically are thought of as hominids. Human is typically reserved for Homo sapiens: US.

Dennis Mathias I never said anything about all extant humans having Neanderthal DNA. All non African humans can colloquially be generalized to "humans". I could even say humans have red hair with out having to specify "only some". You're getting caught on semantics. Asians have Denisovan DNA too. It's also thought that African's have other traces of as yet unidentified hominid DNA. Humans slept around along back then. Neanderthals were (some of) our ancestors. Ever heard the term "Archaic Human"? It refers to our ancestors, like Neanderthals and Denisovan. "Human" isn't a scientific classification. It's just a word. A word I've heard scientist use to refer to Neanderthals many times.

@@ManicPandaz You said "Humans have Neanderthal DNA". That is not true since Indigenous sub-Saharan Africans have none. About the red hair, I don't think you can say humans have red hair. You would have to specify SOME humans have red hair. Yes, non-African humans are..um, human. A type of human that is non-African of course is not correct since we are all African--all humans came from Africa. Indigenous Africans would have no DNA. Homo sapiens is a single species comprising several subspecies that include the archaics and modern humans. Under this definition, modern humans are referred to as Homo sapiens sapiens and archaics are also designated with the prefix "Homo sapiens".

You have a problem. Mommy issues?

Julia You people “

I can't believe what I'm reading. She is a scientist. Her dreads should not be something to be judged for. Do people judge you for your yellow hair?

@@karenyu86 Go look up appropriations and try to understand how offensive it is.

there is a difference between appreciation and appropriation and unless you know her you don't know her history or why she chooses to wear her hair that way you don't get to decide which it is also complaining about the pitch of a woman's voice is considered sexist by some people and offends them, if you are going to live in a glass house you shouldn't throw stones

@@jonni2317 I know she's white so it's appropriation.
