Eureka!

Heredity: What Genes Tell Us

26 min

Available from 07/11/2026

This episode looks at the major discoveries that led to the understanding of the principles of heredity. Early on, humans realised that they could modify nature and use other species - through domestication and breeding - to meet their needs. Over time, some species became extinct whilst others evolved, just like humans themselves.
