- How our deadliest parasite turned to the dark side第1話
How our deadliest parasite turned to the dark sideAround 10,000 years ago, somewhere in Africa, a microscopic parasite made a huge leap. With a little help from a mosquito, it left its animal host - probably a gorilla - and found its way to a new host: us. - Primates vs Snakes (An Evolutionary Arms Race)第2話
Primates vs Snakes (An Evolutionary Arms Race)The Snake Detection Hypothesis proposes that the ability to quickly spot and avoid snakes is deeply embedded in primates, including us - an evolutionary consequence of the danger snakes have posed to us over millions of years. - How the Rise of Social Insects Shrunk These Dinosaurs第3話
How the Rise of Social Insects Shrunk These DinosaursWe often think of dinosaurs as either preying on other dinos or mammals, or as plant-eaters -- but in ecosystems today, those aren’t the only two options. So why would we expect dinosaurs to have only been carnivores or herbivores, with the occasional omnivore thrown in the mix? - How Horses Went From Food To Friends第5話
How Horses Went From Food To FriendsDo our modern horses descend from just one domesticated population, or did it happen many times, in many places? Answering these questions has been tricky, as we’ve needed to bring together evidence from art, archaeology, and ancient DNA…Because, as it turns out, the history of humans and horses has been a pretty wild ride. - Why We Only Have Ten Toes (It's a Long Story)第6話
Why We Only Have Ten Toes (It's a Long Story)Today, all mammals from humans to bats have five fingers or fewer. Yes, even whales, whose finger bones are hidden in their fins. Birds have four or fewer and amphibians get the best of both worlds, often having four digits on their “hands” and five on their “feet.” But no species of vertebrates have more than five digits, let alone eight! - How the Smallest Animal Got So Simple第24話
How the Smallest Animal Got So SimpleWe tend to think that evolution only goes in one direction— toward getting bigger and more advanced. But that’s not always the case. This tiny, simple animal, the Myxozoans, (yes, animal!) evolved from something bigger and more complex.
