You can aspire to great things in life, but how about in death? Could you be one of the world's greatest fossils many years from now? To ensure being found by a future paleontologist, you'll need to die in a highly specific way (think within tree sap or on the bottom of the ocean floor), and nature takes care of the rest. Phoebe A. Cohen details the steps your body must take to find future fame as a fossil.
Lesson by Phoebe A. Cohen, animation by Anton Bogaty.

@vaibhavgupta20 10 лет назад

evolution has stopped because we now change the surrounding environment

@TimeFliesGames 10 лет назад

Vaibhav Gupta Evolution hasn't stopped, we just changed the factors of evolutionary pressure. Evolution would stop if the chances of reproduction (and survival of offsprings) of each human was the same, which is not the case. Whether it's attractiveness, money or lack of sexual education that offsets the balance, some will have more success passing on their genes, for better or for worse.

@vaibhavgupta20 10 лет назад

yeah but before evolution is walking on 2 legs because it saves energy for brain to work. look at a ex. we drive cars has cars been evolved to be driven or vice versa. but today just about any body can earn money. their is no evolutionary advantage in modern world.
