Explore the fascinating transition from early cells to multi-celled animals and see the experiments that helped us understand how it happened.

Here we see how new genetic information evolves via gene duplications followed by point mutations.

Point mutations are the simplest natural mechanisms known to increase the genetic information of a population.

The origin of life is still a mystery, but the careful study of chemical evolution is beginning to provide us with possible answers.

Here we look at the basics of what biological evolution is, and how it works.

You hear about genes all the time in the news and in the movies, but what exactly is a gene? Here we learn what genes are and how they evolve.

Ever wish you understood genetics? It’s way easier than you think. Mastering the basics only takes 5 minutes.

Learn how viruses differ from other microbes, why most viruses only infect one type of host organism, and how viruses evolve to infect new hosts!

Biologists teach that all living things on Earth are related. Is there any solid evidence to back this claim? Join us as we explore the facts!

Natural Selection is one of the main concepts found within the theory of evolution. See how it works!
