Clint Explains Phylogenetics - Why Monophyly is King!

Ғылым және технология

What is so great about monophyletic groups? Why are phylogenies so important? Because they teach you things about organisms that you didn't know before! That is why phylogenetics is so important, and why monophyly is king!

    Where was this video when I got in an argument with my high school biology teacher because I kept insisting that birds were actually reptiles? It didn’t make sense to me that birds were dinosaurs and dinosaurs were reptiles, but at the same time birds were supposed to be a completely separate thing that had nothing to do with reptiles. Very good to know that I’ve instinctively been on the right track all along!

    Because this is something i have been trying to prove to people since high school biology this reminded me of an idea for a series i had then. Why biology class is wrong. From how everything is oversimplified to the point of being wrong to the incorrect definition of species they teach to just taxonomy in general. It seems that someone way more qualified is doing the series for me. Thank you.

    Question though, for anyone still here or visiting from the community post. How do you discern how a brand new organism even fits into a phylogeny in the first place? If I were to look at a bird without knowing what I do, I'm not sure that I would place it in the same location on a phylogeny that it now rests in today. I don't doubt these conclusions, but I would like to know more about the methods that are used to draw them.

    Domesticated animals are considered different subspecies of the original wild animal. Dogs are a subspecies of wolf for an example. We also can't really just make a virus in a lab from scratch, we can genetically alter a virus that currently exists but we would just consider that virus the same virus as before, just a strain that we created. If we could theoretically make entirely new organism it might be classified in a different tree than all other living things.
