DNA Mutation

Several prominent families are responsible for funding and promoting eugenics in America, namely the Rockefeller, Carnegie, Harriman, and Osborn families. Two families, the Rockefellers and the Osborns, are particularly significant. John D. Rockefeller Sr. contributed a large amount of money to build the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in the early 1900's, which housed the Eugenics Records

"Since the Earth is a living object, it also evolves"

The Earth is not a living organism and doesn't reproduce. The reason that some species disappear is due to: the environment changes and the species cannot adapt; competing species migrate and conquer their domain - those are 2 reasons. The environment/Earth has no needs; it will continue to exist as a large spinning sphere, regardless of what crawls upon its surface or swims in its seas, until it is eventually swallowed by the sun.

Evolution the way Darwin described it is not true, however evolution does occur. Each species improves different systems in their bodies including our brains.since the Earth is a living object, it also evolves and that is why some species disappear and others appear that did not exist before. This, of course, happens in order to meet new needs of the environment and adapt for the purpose of survival.

No. If enough mutations build up between two populations with limited or no gene flow between them, odds of reproductive success will drop to zero and they will have speciated by definition.

I'm curious, if you think mutations don't cause speciations (like that observed in Drosophila pseudoobscura) then what does?

Mutations in a specie only make new breeds of that specie, they do not form new species.

I dont believe in evolution. However, just to get a good score on MCAT I have to learn all this crap, and I dont mind doing it. END OF STORY.

Part 1 - Ahhh M. bhn45r !!! First evolution has nothing to do with luck. What you just saw is a video that shows you how mutation (transformations) appears, and then those mutation IF they are an advantage (like slightly more fur on a rabbit's back that lives up north) then this offspring will have a very small advantage over his brothers and sisters, but an advantage nonetheless...to part2

Part2- He may or may not have more offspring then the other rabbits. But then this process will repeat itself over and over and over (millions of years) so at a point or another, the ones with slightly more fur will always be advantaged over the others until we see rabbits that are furry and able to survive the cold weather. Never forget that most mutations will not advantage them, it will even disadvantage them(less fur, bad vision or will not digest properly)... to part3

Part3- But these one will not reproduce as much as the others or by luck they will as much as the other, BUT again with the addition of the time factor(millions of years) the luck of some of those rabbits will disappear and only the FITEST will survive. But again never forget even if evolution would not be true, then creationism or ID is even less probable. Always Rational mind over a superstitious one.

ah, I see you believe there is a god too, it figures, you'd have to believe in god to believe in evolution.

Yes, evolution counts. Your genes, not the rocket scientists genes would be the template for how human looks and acts in the future. However the point was, this video only describes how alterations in DNA occur, and I'm quite sure God would have no objections.

oh, so evolution can count? Just by the amount of offspring an organism can produce doesn't mean anything about if it's a mistake or not. i could've fucked 10 chicks, and the really buff smart rocket scientist might have only fucked 5 chicks, does that mean he's a mistake and I'm not? Because god knows he's stronger and smarter than me.

No, the evolutionary theory says that the number of offsprings decide who was a mistake and who was not. This video only describes how alterations in DNA occur.

what is has to do with is there's not enough time in the F**king world for evolution to bring us to where we are today according to chances. Evolution is full of S**t !

so this video says we've evolved through mutations-errors that occur not corrected by usual repair mechanisms.....Evolution is so full of S**t How have we build and become a civilization through errors. If you think we're the cause of a mistake i think you're a mistake.
