Lampreys suck blood, but they aren't very complex, they don't have jaws, but they have a spinal cord.
Fish used to have face armor.
Coelacanths are very old animals.
Lungfish can walk on land, if they want to get to another ocean or lake. They have LUNGS. And GILLS.
We are Mammalian amniotic tetropodal sarcopterygiian osteichythyan gnathostomal vertebrate cranial chordates. "Takes breath of air"
We are very very very very very very very very very VERY complex.
We are more complex than insects, which makes us COMPLEX.
Vertebrae are more complex than non-vertebrates.
Dogs are like us, very complex and they are mammals, with hair, hearts, and brains.
We all started from one little cell, and then we evolved. Even when we're created, we are cells, racing for the chance to have a life. Once the sperm reaches the egg, all access to the egg is blocked off from other sperm (UNLESS TWINS) and then they get eaten by the crazed white blood cells, who love sperm (TO EAT).
The Lancelets are weird because of the cords coming out of their mouth.
The Coccyx is a great place, it is the place I'm referring to in this next sentence.
And this is where I'd put my tail! IF I HAD ONE!
Brains are pretty much restricted to some animals, fishies have brains, buggies don't
Our spinal cord is used when we move around, it has lots of nerves that detect what the brain wants the body to do.
We are very weird for a 2 legged animal, because we don't have tails.
Apes are mostly on all 4's/\.
Coelacnaths were caught by a guy who decided to show some scientists.
Birds have a gizzard, which is filled with ROCKS. That's right, birds eat rocks.
Do you have a gizzard? No. We have TEETH.
Do you want some rooster teeth? Well you can't have them. You can have rooster gizzards though? Want some?! THEY ARE DELICIOUS.
Vertebrates have a backbone that supports their structure.
Vertebrates usually have other bones, especially complex ones.
We don't have slits that let us breathe, instead we have lungs, which also let us breathe.
Post Anal tails are the best way to go.
Sea Squirts have weird tadpoles, which means they get included in chordates.
Sharks skeletons are completely made out of cartilage.
Lobe Finned Fishes are fishies that have muscle in their fins.
Tetrapods are animals with 4 feet.
The first Tetrapods were amphibians.
The Embryo is put inside the womb for animals.
The Coccyx is really weird, try touching it. Or try not to.
Your Coccyx is really creepy, that is where your tail should be, or where your tail is! In the dog's case.
Some fish are creepy. FISHIES. Fish like the Coelacanths.
Deep sea fish have big eyes, big mouths, big (insert body part here). Thats right mate.
We have a very complex name, as I stated earlier. Nope not gonna say it again.
The Lancelets have cords coming out of their mouths, but they are named head cords.
We have discs of cartilage between our spine.
Pharyngeal Slits are those things you see on sharks that makes them scary, you know, those red slits beside it's head.
We are part of chordata, all vertebrates are. but we are not the only ones in chordata, there are lots more things in this "sorry no idea"
The Myxni is really weird. It is classified as a vertebrate, but it does not have a spine. The reason it is called a vertebrate is because it has a skull. Weird huh? I don't get it either. NOBODY GETS EET!
The Coelacanth is very rare, don't even try to find it. But if you do, tell me in the comments, you are one of those lucky divers.
The Phylum Chordata contains about 50,000 vertebrates and a few thousand invertebrates.
Cartilage is very important in our bodies, because it helps us bend and stuff.
There are lots of different vertebrates.
I have the answer to life, the universe and everything! TORNADO OF CREATION!
Sharks have chambered hearts.
Rays are similar to Sharks.
Bony fish are not very rare at all.
The Coelacanths should walk on land, but they don't.
Coelacanths are not good eaten. For a good reason dude.
Amphibia were the first animals to evolve a 3 chambered heart.
The Archosaurs died out with the dinosaurs, but some of them survived.
Birds have a 4- chambered heart.
We also have a 4-chambered heart. If i'm right.
Mammals have milk! Some mammals sweat milk! Other animals have breasts which dispense milk. Like us. I mean ladies. Not like me. Like all ladies reading this. Not like all men reading this. SEA SQUIRTS ARE SIMILAR TO US LOL!

Complex Animals. AGAIN IF YOU DON'T THINK RELIGION IS TRUE GET OFF THIS BLOG.
We are far more complex than insects, but complexity started with insects, with their multiple segments.
The Folds in our brains are segments, our spine is splitted into segments, our fingers are splitted into segments, they're crazy evolved segments, but segments just the same.
Crustaceans are also complex, they are very tasty complex animals, but complex just the same.
Segments, segments, segments. We all have segments, but it all started with insects.
Some old insects had a 2 foot wingspan. That wingspan is probably bigger than the width of the screen you are viewing.
Centipedes have poisoned claws to paralyze their prey, but Millipedes don't. So be careful which "pede" you touch.
The reason those 2 foot insects died out? Lack of oxygen. That's right, oxygen is lower than it used to be.
By the way, a reminder. Living Things evolve. If you don't think so, just stop reading my blog and go worship your spaghetti monster.
I, by the way, am not an atheist. I do have a religion. BUT. I do know that ANIMALS EVOLVE. There is so much proof. Which doesn't include our little animated videos.
By the way, this is (not) a good speech.
“I’ve been thinking. When life gives you lemons? Don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give me lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s going to burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m going to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

Comparative Anatomy
We get our energy from eating other life forms.
Plants get their energy from the sun, which is how they make their food.
Sharks can and will die if they stop moving.
How do they sleep you say? They move while sleeping.
Birds evolved from small dinosaurs.
Sir Andrew Huxley won a nobel prize.
Nerve tissue manages electrical connections in the body.
We are more related to other animals than we are to plants.
We are more related to mammals than we are to other animals.
We are more related to primates than other mammals.
We are more related to other humans than we are to primates.
Thomas Henry Huxley discovered that Birds evolved from small dinosaurs, and he also invented the word agnostic.
Huxley made friends with darwin.
Animals can move so they can, umm, yeah, umm. . . .. .. . . . . . . . .
Yeah, umm, you know. Right? Oh god I don't want to explain it, if you don't know just stop reading now please.
Comparative Anatomy studies the difference and similarities of living organisms.
We are not green and we cannot make our own food. So we are not related to a plant.
An animal is a living thing that propels itself with limbs, that can usually not make their own food, if not altogether.
Not all animals have bones, some just have an exoskeleton.
Some aquatic animals just shoot their sperm into the water and cross their fingers that another fish gets pregnant.
Sharks reproduce like mammals, you know, something goes somewhere....
Sharks still lay eggs.
Sharks are the only fish that have a sex organ similar to a mammal's
Huxley found out about lots of things. He was a ship surgeon before he became a great scientist. Also, everyone in england envied his great big sideburns.
Huxley was nicknamed darwin's bulldog, because he vowed to kill whoever didn't believe in darwin's ways.
Huxley's thing about birds and dinosaurs was not believed for about 100 years.
Comparative Anatomy, it gets us to know that we are different, but we are also similar to other animals! Those animals include birds, mammals and even fish! But not insects.
Nerve tissue contains neurons, which are a brainy thing, you should know.
Every animal and plant gets sick. Plants get growths and stuff on them, while animals get sick.
Plant Animals eating meat is a pretty bad thing. But dogs eating grass isn't bad though.
Would you like to throw up? Here are a list of things that can make you throw up, may it be grossness, sickness, or just a stomachache. Corpses, rotten stuff, raw meat, flies or maybe even excrements! If you eat like that. Anyone for a feces patty with a side of concentrated urine? Oh, time for the main course! A 7 day old head of a human with a topping of raw dead flies? Dessert! A cup of month old ice cream!
Lol, that was a great laugh.
Birds can walk like us, but they can fly much better. And actually, they jump more than walk.
Fish, Birds and Mammals can move around in the water, all fish can, for the bird family, penguins are the best, for mammals, the best are all swimming mammals, including seals, whales, dolphins, orcas, that kind of deal.
Most animals have a digestive system.
Our hands are actually very related to bat hands. Now instead of jazz hands..... I give you! Baat hands!
The sea sponge does not move, but it is an animal! Do not doubt anything! By the way, it would be really rare to get a kitchen sponge that was actually made out of a sponge.
Huxley connected paleontology and biology together, we have a lot to thank him for.
The Huxley family seems to be blessed with good minds! One of huxley's descendants got a Nobel Prize.
By the way, the nobel prize is a prize given by alfred nobel, who was one of the richest people in the world, because he invented...................
TriNitroToluene! AKA TNT.
Sharks have to be careful about moving, because if they stop, everything stops.
Penguins don't have wings, they have flippers, like seals and orcas.
Orcas are called killer whales for a reason. Did you hear about this. "Come here Mr Orca, we are going to feed you fish to do a.." NOM. "Epic bleeding lower torso" Shoot the thing! BANG BANG. FREEDOM! Splat. It killed itself and most of the Army Rangers.
By the way, that story is slightly fabricated.
Birds push air so they can stay floating, they usually fly.
Animals have a close common ancestor.
Orcas have a reputation to drag their trainers under water and half drown them.
Orcas also headbutt their trainers sometimes.
The least it might do is buck you off and chase you out of the tank.
So, let that be a lesson to all you retired orca trainers, DON'T RISK TRAINING ORCAS. PERIOD.
Ok, this is the final post for a long time! Bye! Bye!

Evalushuun
People say that evolution is all random.
Do you believe in evolution? Yes you do. You should. 'Cause if you don't, that means that you don't believe in biology, which means you shouldn't be reading this blog right now.
Dorudons were similar to whales.
Every vertebrate looks exactly the same in the first stage of their embryo evolution.
All living things on earth use DNA or RNA to encode information about what they are.
The start of vertebreal life starts from 3.8 billion years ago.
People used to think dinosaurs were gigantic iguanas.
Rodhocetus was a cool animal, because it lived under water, but it had arms and legs.
The Morganucuddon looked like some kind of rat.
Are molecules are the same thing as like everything.
Australia is famous for it's marsupials.
New zealand is famous for it's sheep, but secretly more famous for being the place where rabbits are actually pests that you can shoot. I am New Zealander, so I liek shooting rabbits.
The Theory Of Evolution is a pretty good thing, and I am pretty sure it is true, but it was not always thought to be true. In the old times, they used other ways to explain things.
Fossils taught us that whales used to walk.
Whales descended from land animals! Woo!
Bisons are related to Whales. Don't believe me? See for yourself.
Our forelimbs are for grabbing things.
Natural Selection is part of evolution.
So is sexual selection.
Mutations are also important.
A lot of our awesome things are based on mutations, probably.
Try looking for mutations in our evolution. I'm sure you'll find some.
If animals are a different color from it's normal color, it won't be stronger. It's not a shiny.
Very few marsupials live in america, but australia is the home of marsupials, there are marsupials everywhere. EVERYWHERE. Koalas, Kangaroos, possums, OH MY GOSH SO CUTE SO CUUUUTE!
Evolution is very hard to discuss, it's a thing, not a debate.
Evolution makes things different different from each other, which is why human's don't have stink glands like the skunk.
This is taxonomy, but for those who are interested in where humans come from, here we go! Kingdom:Animalia Phylum:Chordata Class:Mammalia Order:Primates Family:Hominidae Tribe:Hominini Genus:Homo Species:Sapiens.
The earliest known primate looked like a squirrel, it is called the Plesiadapis.
Opossums are one of the not so many marsupials in america.
Our world is beautiful, and I think everybody would agree with that.
We evolved to create clothes not for covering your private areas, but to keep warm!
It's cold without a bunch of hair! And when cavemen choose from walking in the nude from warm testicles, they choose warm testicles.
We dissect things, that isn't wrong. We need to know about animals anyway. Vivisection is wrong. I think so. Well, actually, Vivisection with painkillers (not the drug) is ok.
Evolution is responsible for the awesome, great, but weird difference all animals have.
People say that evolution was just random, but they are wrong 99.9999999999999999..........% of the time.
Bats have very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very long fingers. Don't you think. Or maybe you don't think so. Because they have wings. DARNINT BAT WINGS ARE HANDS DARNIT.
Life is worth studying and knowing more about.
Can we all agree that life is beautiful please?
If we track down our ancestors, we can find out which animals we are related to.
Our structures are the same and our molecules are the same as other vertebreal animals.
Those animals in madagascar, I forgot their name, they were conquered by monkeys in all other parts of the world, and they are now extinct. Can you tell me their name?
DNA, genetics, natural selection, sexual selection, respiration, taxonomy, they are all related to evolution.
In america, only 40% of the population believes in evolution. Let's change that. The percentage of people that believe in evolution must be OVER 90000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!1!111!!ONE!
Bats, humans, monkeys, whales, and LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS of other animals. I lost it there.
Evolution is amazing. I think it's really something to celebrate about. I'M HITTING THE CAPS LOCK KEY! I SAVED THIS FOR A SPECIAL OCCASION, BECAUSE I NORMALLY JUST HIT THE SHIFT KEY! OH WATS DAT DIRECTOR? damn they just took my caps lock key. didn't steal my exclamation mark key tho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh hellz yeah they just took that too. anyway, do you think evolution is true? show me in the comments [exclamation mark] although you never do. anyway, bye and get ready for the next post [exclamation mark]

Taxonomy
We all have a common ancestor, something we are all descended from.
That organism lived a very long time ago.
We all have a similar ancestor.
Which means we may be about 999999999th cousins or something.
Archaea are much more hardy than Bacteria, which are both related to Eukarya.
Protista, Fungi, Plants and Humans are related to Eukarya.
Fungi are Hederotrophs, like animals.
All animals, including us are made out of lots of cells, including us.
Cats, Dogs and Skeevers are Carnivorous.
Cats are also called Felis Catus.
If you can spot the easter egg here, you are pretty good at finding stuff.
By the way, skeevers eat rabbits and other small animals.
Birds are closely related to Reptiles, but they were thought to be related to butterflies, because they could both fly.
We are related to primates, and we might be thought to be related to primates, because we both walk on 2 legs.
Taxonomy was founded by Carl Lineaus.
Carl Lineaus was kinda weird, because he wanted his students to collect specimens for his studies.
Lineaus didn't have much idea about where life came from.
The 3 domains are bacteria, eukarya, and Archaea.
Bacteria and Eukarya used to be just one domain called Monera.
There are lots of animals, and we are descended from eukarya.
Animalia is every animal in existence.
Monera are tiny things.
100 percent of adorable organisms are in Animalia.
We are more closely related to mice than we are to fish, and we are more related to fish than fruit flies.
Mammalia mostly have a tail and a backbone.
Felidae is the family of cats, which includes tigers, lions, cougars, werecats, leopards, cheetas, sabre toothed tigers, sabre cats, cat people, cats of course, ocelots, ligers, tigrons and finally, what you have all been waiting for, please wait for a few more words............ the Toyger.
Every living thing on this planet is related to every other living thing on this planet.
The organism that we all (Yes. Even plants) descended from lived a long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long looooooooooong time ago.
New species get discovered all the time.
What's that? Do you smell some humor coming up?
The dog species is called the canines, similar to felines. Things in the canine family are: Wolves, dogs, Barbas, Meeko, Vigilance, Werewolves, Jake, Jacob the Werewolf, Smiledog.jpg, Cerberus, Blind Dogs, Pseudodogs, and finally, what you have all been waiting for, just wait for a few more words, The Familiar.
Rodents include: Rats, Beavers, Skeevers, Naked Mole Rats, Wererats, Buck-Toothed Platypus Rats, and finally, what you have been waiting for, you don't even care do you, The Capybara.
We are all part of eukarya, the place where every part of life starts.
That organism lived a very long time ago.
We all have a similar ancestor.
Which means we may be about 999999999th cousins or something.
Archaea are much more hardy than Bacteria, which are both related to Eukarya.

New species get discovered all the time.
What's that? Do you smell some humor coming up?
The dog species is called the canines, similar to felines. Things in the canine family are: Wolves, dogs, Barbas, Meeko, Vigilance, Werewolves, Jake, Jacob the Werewolf, Smiledog.jpg, Cerberus, Blind Dogs, Pseudodogs, and finally, what you have all been waiting for, just wait for a few more words, The Familiar.
Rodents include: Rats, Beavers, Skeevers, Naked Mole Rats, Wererats, Buck-Toothed Platypus Rats, and finally, what you have been waiting for, you don't even care do you, The Capybara.
We are all part of eukarya, the place where every part of life starts.

Darwin Never Met Mendel.
Darwin had no idea how traits were passed on to a father or mother's descendants.
Darwin and Mendel had no idea that their ideas connected together, and they never did.
Mendel had an idea how traits were passed on to a father or mother's descendants.
We have something important that we do.... NOT RANDOMLY MATING.
Dogs mate randomly though. Maters Gonna Mate.
Most animals mate randomly, but some animals have 1 mate for life.
Dry earwax genes are recessive, so there is more chance that you will have wet earwax.
9% of people have dry earwax.
We still have some kind of urge to randomly mate, because we used to.
Darwin and Mendel worked at exactly the same time.
Mendel studied how animal genes were passed on to their offspring, and darwin studied how natural selection worked, those two things connected together and now we know how people and animals evolve. Not a long story.
Mendel found out about alleles.
Earwax is a great example of how traits are passed down from parents, as you have a better chance of having wet earwax than having dry earwax.
If you have half wet earwax and half dry earwax in your genetics, you will have wet earwax because there is a better chance of having wet earwax.
If you have completely dry earwax, you will have dry earwax.
Darwin didn't understand mutation, where a mistake happens in meiosis.
The mutant may be better or worse at a certain thing it does.
Genetic Drift's effects are best seen in small populations.
Hardy and Weinberg came up with the exact same thing, and they didn't even know each other.
The Hardy Weinberg equilibrium requires no natural selection, no sexual selection, no mutations, a giant population side and no gene flow.
The Hardy Weinberg equilibrium is no fun at all.
Both parents contribute a version of their genes called an allele to their child.
That is what Mendel found out.
Population Genetics involve both Darwin and Mendel's ideas.
Darwin defended his ideas from haters.
Non random Mating is encouraged in all readers of my blog. Do not randomly mate.
Sexual Selection are alleles for more sexy creatures.
The Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium says no to lots of selections, and it doesn't allow gene flow.
Hardy and Weinberg, like Mendel and Darwin, never knew each other. Ever.
Earwax is a great example of recessive and dominant alleles, because wet earwax is dominant and dry earwax is recessive.
If the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is used in a population, 9% of that population will have dry earwax, and 91% will have wet earwax.
A lot of people have wet earwax, including me, and 91% of the time you.
However, if you are that 9% that doesn't, I cannot even say how lucky you are. I want your earwax.
We know a whole lot about heredity.
Sexual Selection is when a more good looking guy gets all the girls.
The smaller the population, the more chance there will be genetic drift.
Hardy and Weinberg made the Hardy-Weinberg equation, which teaches a lot about genetics and stuff.
Non random mating goes out of the window when lust gets involved. LOL.
Firstly, before you marry, it's actually lust that drives you to your girlfriend. Everyone does it. That means everyone is committing a sin! Noooooooooo.... Nah jk. LOL.
Some mutations can result in the death or deformation of the offspring, but sometimes it makes the person better at stuff.
Hardy and Weinberg found out about the same thing at 1908.
There are only 2 alleles for earwax.
I dunno if the Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium is even possible in real life, because natural selection must happen, and sexual selection happens a lot with animals.
Mendel's information would be pretty interesting to darwin.
There are several factors that change the allele frequency in the population.
We have lots of alleles, which we will pass onto our descendants, Or already have.
If you bring over your hot cousin from the next island over, that would mess up the hardy-weinberg equilibrium.
Population genetics are not a complicated idea.
Sexual alleles are for sexy pplz.
Lol.
Hardy and Weinberg didn't do anything amazing that made this happen, they just searched for stuff, and then it happened, Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium! LOL!
I know Allele is spelled allele instead of allelle because the word correction tells me that.
Natural Selection makes the alleles that make you survive more frequent.
Gene Flow is when a population mixes with another population.
Gene Flow will mess with the allele frequencies in the hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, which is why it was banned in it.

Evolutionary Development!!!11!!!
We are 85% genetically identical to mice.
Boys usually try to become scientists because they want to blow stuff up, or get bitten by a super radioactive monkey so they become a super radioactive battle monkey, but in fact, scientists are very careful in their experiments.
Butt eyeballs are a real thing, because of some terrible swiss scientists. I mean eyeballs on the butt, not butts on the eyeballs.
Birds lost their teeth as they evolved from raptors, which took a looooooooooong time.
Birds still have genes for teeth.
Mutant chicken embryos had TEETH.
There are weird mutant animals that you can make if you switch on the genes that weren't used by the guys.
Chickens can have fangs. So rooster teeth actually makes cents now! Rooster Teeth thought about everyting!
If we switch a gene, we might grow hair everywhere. I think. Whatever.
Genes are cool, because of the cool things we can do if we switch genes on and off.
It isn't fun to blow stuff up. There may be a bloodstain on the ceiling to symbolise the memorable moment when your intestines got blown all across the ceiling.
Or maybe if you become a radioactive battle human, there may be that blood stain on the wall that symbolises that memorable moment when you turned your colleague into minced homo sapien sapien.
More on evolutionary development. Us mixing genes has just been started lately, the event with the fly with eyeballs on it's butt occured in 1997.
We have lots of genes, and one of them is not having a thumb in the middle of your forehead or (oh god why) a butt on your forehead.
If we go deep into our genes, we even might be able to edit our babies to have 4 eyes, but I think you wouldn't consider doing that. If you are considering that, you are so cruel.
The event where chicks had teeth shows that birds still have some reptile genes in them. You could maybe make a chicken into a reptile! But I doubt it.
Genes are given instructions, and then they do what they're said to do.
Birds lost teeth about 60,000 years ago, just to pop back up again with the mutant chicks with teeth incident.
Hox genes kick in after the embryo is more developed, and it gives instructions on where to put the body parts.
Most regulatory genes are inherited.
There only put regulatory genes in the butt of the eyeball butt fly, so they only evolved fly eyeballs.
Hox stands for Homeobox. I think.
We are all built using the same blueprint.
Evolution is not mutations, it's just genes being switched on and off.
All animals are way more similar than we think they are.
We are extremely similar to a chimp, but not exactly the same.
If you are a scientist that is an ace in evolutionary development, you might be able to make a fly with eyeballs on it's butt, or a chicken with teeth. BUT NO BATTLE MONKEYS.
Hox genes only activate genes. Other genes make the body parts.
Gene Products are already sitting in the egg before it's fertilized.
Our Hox gene instructions are similar to lots of other Hox gene instructions for other mammals.
Birds are similar to velicoraptors, but as you may have seen, birds don't have teeth, do they? No they don't. So they still have the teeth gene.
If you find a blind animal embryo, and switch on the gene that gives it eyes, it might get eyes. Best done with the blind cave fish.
No genes are activated until they are told when to activate it.
Our genetic makeup is very similar to our mammal counterparts, including dogs, cats, mice, etc.
All animals are way more similar than we think they are.
If a chimp is wearing a fedora, you might briefly think it is a human, or not even notice it at all.
The short answer of how we are similar to a mouse is Developmental Regulatory Genes.
All vertebrates have similar genes, like that we have a backbone, mouths, stuff like that.
Hox genes make a huge effect on how the animal will look.
It may be possible to turn a reptile into some kind of bird, but that might not be possible because the bird stage of evolution was after the reptile stage.
Evolution takes place over a long time.
These genes being switched on and off explains how animals evolve, because animals had too little time to evolve like they should have.
Mammals have more relations to each other than vertebrates, but we still are pretty similar.
