Todos somos parientes. Todos somos diferentes | We are Family & We are Different
by Carme Junyent
Description
About Us: A series about the evolution of life on Earth and Human evolution to understand better who we are.
Further to The Human Body Inside & Out success, Cristina Junyent & Cristina Losantos present another pair of titles to explain how we are all related and how we are all different.
What is the origin of the Universe, the solar system, the Earth and the Moon? How does life seem to have started? And how did it come to have such diverse forms? You will discover how mammals and primates first appeared on Earth.
Thanks to tools and fire, the first humans came to populate the entire planet. What path did they follow to reach the different continents? When did it happen? We will see how it can be that humans, despite being apparently so different, have a common origin.
Why does the distance to the Sun allow life to exist on Earth? How is it that light and rain determine the different regions of our planet? How have humans adapted to each environment? We all look different depending on where our ancestors were born. And thanks to the fact that they learned to use the different resources in each place, we have come this far! Human skill has allowed us to change our environment and make machines to do the most arduous tasks.
