(3:52) -- Natural Selection and Humans (5:26) -- Genetic Engineering & Artificial Selection (5:39) -- Natural Selection and the Future (3:22) -- Human Population and Earth's Resources (2:43)How do humans influence changes in other species? Has Homo sapiens itself stopped evolving? This program explores natural selection as an ongoing phenomenon, showing how evolutionary processes continue to shape the future of all life on Earth. Exploring the competition for resources, territory, and mates that occurs in any ecosystem, the video illustrates how species differentiation takes place-whether the environment is a petri dish, a jungle, or a major city. Also discussed: morphological, physiological, and behavioral variation; the relationship between agriculture, selective breeding, and genetic modification; and the puzzling anthropological discovery known as the Hobbit.Its place in today's worldAnimal diversityBiodiversityEvolution (Biology)Heredity, HumanHuman beingsOriginHuman evolutionGeneticsPhylogenyPhysical anthropologyPlant diversityPlantsEvolutionPlantsReproductionPrimatesEvolutionEducational films.Internet videos.Videorecording.localAnimal diversity.Biodiversity.Evolution (Biology)Heredity, Human.Human beingsOrigin.Human evolution.Genetics.Phylogeny.Physical anthropology.Plant diversity.PlantsEvolution.PlantsReproduction.PrimatesEvolution.Films for the Humanities & Sciences (Firm)Video Education Australasia.AzPhAEMVIDEO9910887825003321Natural selection1895717UNINA
