We're evolutionarily designed to use vision.

Evolutionarily speaking, we're just a blip.

He conserved his energy for the next game.

But evolutionarily, two million years is nothing.

Now, the good news is that we have conserved.

And that, I think, evolutionarily speaking is unique.

This is interesting because this sleeping machinery, it's perfectly conserved.

Remember, our evolutionary conserved sequences we're using on this array allow us to detect even novel or uncharacterized viruses, because we pick what is conserved throughout evolution.

And this is deep inside of the brain. It's very old, evolutionarily.

Now, uncertainty is a very bad thing. It's evolutionarily a bad thing.

If we measured things that are, evolutionarily, highly conserved, and developmentally very early emerging things that are online from the first weeks of life we could push the detection of autism all the way to those first months, and that's what we are doing now.

And this precise oxygen concentration, 10 parts per million, that caused suspended animation, is conserved.

I think evolutionarily speaking, this is probably a fairly good thing, in the end.

You may remember that energy is not conserved in an expanding universe. Well, here is an obvious case.

Because smiling is evolutionarily contagious, and it suppresses the control we usually have on our facial muscles.

We have become very removed from what our bread really is, which, again, evolutionarily speaking, is very strange.

It's just that we're always thinking of this guy as lagging behind us, evolutionarily or somehow uncannily creeping up on us, and in some cases, he gets places before us.

We have collected and conserved a great deal of biological diversity, agricultural diversity, mostly in the form of seed, and we put it in seed banks, which is a fancy way of saying a freezer.

They look maybe they look kind of prehistoric and unfinished, abridged perhaps, but in fact, in fact they are the they vie for the top position of the most evolutionarily derived fish in the sea, right up there with flat fish.

But you have to think evolutionarily, you have to think, what hard job that has to be done it's dirty work, somebody's got to do it is so important to give us such a powerful, inbuilt reward for it when we succeed.

That could happen within the lifetime of a single organism, whereas before they'd built these special information processing structures, that would have had to be learned evolutionarily over hundreds of thousands of years by the individuals dying off that ate that kind of fruit.

Now, by the time we get out here to, let's say, acute bee paralysis virus probably a bad one to have if you're a bee this virus shares almost no similarity to coxsackievirus, but I can guarantee you that the sequences that are most conserved among these viruses on the right hand of the screen are in identical regions right up here.

And so therefore, if you look at the same region of a genome in many mammals that have been evolutionarily distant from each other and are also ecologically divergent, you will get a better understanding of what the evolutionary prior of that site is, i.e., if it is important for the mammal to function, for its survival, it will be the same in all of those different lineages, species, taxa.
