Bacterial Genetic Variation: Meiosis Excluded from the Equation
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the world of microbiology in this video as we investigate the processes that lead to genetic variation in bacterial populations. Learn about transduction, transformation, conjugation, and mutation, and discover why meiosis, a process occurring in sexually reproducing organisms, is not a source of genetic variation in bacteria.
Endotherms vs. Ectotherms: How Animals Regulate Their Body Temperature
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the science behind thermoregulation, focusing on endotherms and ectotherms. Understand how internal metabolic processes distinguish endotherms, while ectotherms rely on environmental factors. Highlighting the adaptations each group has evolved to thrive in their habitats.

Unpack the intricate processes within photosynthesis and identify which is most directly powered by light energy. Discover the critical role of chlorophyll in capturing solar power.
Unlocking Bioremediation: How Microbes Help Nature Clean Itself
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Learn how bioremediation works to treat contaminated environments and how microbes can help clean up pollutants. We evaluate multiple scenarios zeroing in on oil-degrading bacteria as a prime example of the process.
Hydrocarbons vs. Organic Molecules: Key Differences
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the differences between hydrocarbons and other organic molecules. While hydrocarbons contain only carbon and hydrogen, other organic molecules integrate more elements and functional groups. This distinction leads to diverse chemical properties and vital biological functions.
