サマリー
あらすじ・解説
A lot of people are confused when they think about life, how life happens and how it's possible, but if you take a look at that bright yellow thing in the sky, there's a lot of energy coming from it. If you let it soak into your skin, you'll notice that there's real energy there. If you put solar cells on your house, you can see a very significant, measurable amount of energy captured.
Welcome to episode seven of Now I Get It with Dr. Andy. Today, I’m talking about the fundamental principles of life, energy, and evolution.
Tune in and listen as I explore the significance of kinetics and catalysts in facilitating chemical reactions essential for life and the concepts of heritability, selection, and probability.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Compressed gas leads to heat (00:31)
- About kinetics and the importance of catalysts (05:54)
- Enzymes and DNA are the mechanisms of life (09:02)
- The concepts behind natural and sexual selection in evolution (18:04)
- The importance of diverse skills in survival (23:56)
Let’s connect!
