About Evolution

HHMI Biointeractive
www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/evolution/lectures.html
In a series of video lectures on the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Web site, biologists David Kingsley and Sean Carroll introduce Darwin's work and provide an overview of natural selection, selective breeding, genetics, and evolutionary development. Don't miss the discussion of key developmental genes shared by very different animals, suggesting that those animals evolved from a common ancestor.
