Formation of New Species by Speciation | Evolution | Biology | FuseSchool

In this video you will learn how weird and wonderful animals are formed in the process of speciation and the formation of new species. Different selection pressures select for different characteristics. Over generations, the individuals with the beneficial traits will prosper, and others will die out. This results in a population all having these new traits. Populations in a different area may have been faced with different selection pressures, and have evolved to have different traits. Over time, these two populations may no longer be able to mate. Once the populations are no longer able to interbreed and produce viable (fertile) offspring, they are now two separate species. This is known as speciation, and can be the result of environmental factors (such as different food types), or behavioural factors (such as a change in mating season or changes to their mating songs). Our teachers and animators come together to make fun & easy-to-understand videos in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Maths & ICT. VISIT us at www.fuseschool.org, where all of our videos are carefully organised into topics and specific orders, and to see what else we have on offer. Comment, like and share with other learners. You can both ask and answer questions, and teachers will get back to you. These videos can be used in a flipped classroom model or as a revision aid.

Equation Of Parallel Lines | Graphs | Maths | FuseSchool

In this video, we are going to look at parallel lines. To find the equation of parallel lines, we still use the y=mx + c equation, and because they have the same gradient, we know straight away that the gradient ‘m’ will be the same. We then just need to find the missing y-intercept ‘c’ value. VISI
