In this video segment from NOVA: "Judgment Day: Intelligent Design on Trial," paleontologist Neil Shubin recounts a fossil discovery that added another compelling piece to the body of evidence that supports evolution. Shubin's find of a well-preserved skeleton, a "fishapod," represents a transitiona
Fossils are the preserved remains of an animal or plant in a rock. Many of the fossils discovered so far are the ancestors of organisms that are alive today. The study of fossils is called paleontology. Much of what we understand about evolution comes from studying fossils. When organisms die, t
The theory of evolution states that individuals within a species show wide degrees of variation, and those individuals with characteristics best suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. This theory grew from studying the variations and similarities in living animals and

The simple particle model is used to describe the states of matter. The individual states of matter are briefly described and their transitions are explained. The direct transition from solid to gaseous is described using iodine as an example. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All tran

When we move to another country, we are often exposed to a culture that is different from ours. We have to go through four phases of transition: honeymoon, frustration, adaptation and integration. Some people are enthusiastic about the foreign culture for months, while others are frustrated on the f
Stromatolites are calcareous deposits. The stones can be up to 3.5 billion years old. For a long time they were known only as fossils, until 1956, when a "living" colony of stromatolites was discovered off the west coast of Australia. Author: ZDF/Terra X/Viking Film/Iris Gesang/Andreas Kieling, Fra
