Cancer and Cell Fate in the Intestinal Epithelium This animation shows how disrupting cellular processes in the intestines can lead to colon cancer. Cell Biology Anatomy & Physiology Animations High School — AP/IB College
Reproductive Isolation and Speciation in Lizards This animation shows how a single species can give rise to many different species with distinct traits, using anole lizards as an example. Anatomy & Physiology Evolution Animations High School — General High School — AP/IB College
The Origin of Species: The Beak of the Finch This film explores four decades of research on the evolution of Galápagos finches, which has illuminated how species form and diversify. Anatomy & Physiology Evolution Short Films High School — General High School — AP/IB College
The Origin of Species: Lizards in an Evolutionary Tree This film explores the adaptation of anole lizards (genus Anolis) to habitats common across the islands of the Caribbean. The anoles are excellent examples of adaptive radiation, convergent evolution, and speciation through reproductive isolation.
