Evolutionary Development: Chicken Teeth - Crash Course Biology #17

From the creator

Hank introduces us to the relatively new field of evolutionary developmental biology, which compares the developmental processes of different organisms to determine their ancestral relationship and to discover how those processes evolved. Also, fruit flies with eyes on their legs and chickens with teeth!
