The part about the mutated DNA is insane. During the process of evolution, some of these plants basically repurposed and readjusted their basic plant tool-kit for a drastically different purpose. The fundamental working remains similar, clearly establishing a link to the original version, yet the execution and result are completely new.

It doesn't make sense, how can natural selection have fun with another gene set. How did the genes to build the trap get selected if it is just a fun version. In a "fun" version both good and bad mutations would be selected.

What I find most interesting of all of this is how the underlying mechanisms for carnivory are rooted-pun intended-in the genomes of many plants, since they're usually used for defense against pathogens and herbivorous insects. With how common knowledge carnivorous plants are, it really surprises me that they aren't used as examples of how evolution works with what it has.

The Appalachian mountains are home to some microclimates due to unique conditions in a small area, making the shale Barrens of the blue smokies home to the Eastern prickly pear cactus. Not to mention we have a very similar climate to eastern Asian countries like China and Japan, so a lot of plants native to that area grow here- Nice for willow trees, and interesting with the bamboo, but a cause for concern now that kudzu has begun to swallow the entire southeast of America.

"some plants we know today might in the future evolve to become predatory" Question: Have we identified any that appear to be currently _in the process_ of doing so?

This was so cool. Thanks for the information. As I get older. I like this stuff. In school I hated it. But now it’s fun to learn about things.

Love your channel and I've been enjoying it for a while now. It's unfortunate that "creationists" most likely attack you in the comments or say insensitive things regarding your belief in how life has come about, however, just because they do that doesn't mean you have to belittle creationists in return. There are lots of plausible explanations for how life has come to be that is scientifically backable and lots of discrepancies in evolutionary science as well... so it's important to search for truth but recognize our limitations of understanding as humanity and being willing to put down our pride of "being right" and allowing space for conversation. Using "ammo" to fight against the creationists seems to just be a defensive stance against people who may have wrongly attacked you. I say this as a "creationist" as you would call me myself who understands the realities of evolution and where it is true, but also the limitations of evolutionary theory and where scientists are just really guessing.

I completely agree I myself am a Christian and think evolution is a completely plausible way God could have brought about biodiversity. Just like the laws of nature, I believe could have God created evolution and make it happen. A good source I reccomend to anyone struggling with this issue or wondering how a Christian can possibly believe in evolution is Biologos. I highly recommend it to Christian and atheist alike. It is an organization that shows how science and faith don't conflict, but are actually in harmony, and a main topic of theirs is evolution. HIGHLY recommend.

they dont always close fast, sometimes its a very smooth motion that doesnt scare the fly

if it had enough it might even stay open. with the change that the fly or better some social insect will come back. Some ants have been seen working around a Venus fly and feet it. they give the plant there dead or dying ants. keep the Venus safe. and in return they do get the opportunity to collect the nectar with out being eaten.

I have one of these as a house plant and I never knew they were so chemically complex. Super cool 😎

Love this channel It adds to the perspective of human understanding

I grow these plants as a hobby. They are fun and rewarding to grow ;)

So what you're saying is whether it's by robots or plants, ultimately, humanity is doomed?!

Very cool video! Thanks so much for this. 👍👍

What a great video. Never I have seen so much deph. Well done. I just learned a lot of from where my friends outside originated from.
