The oceans are life’s laboratory, the global test tube where trial and error meet cause and effect. By focusing on pivotal animals—ammonites, flatworms, sea squirts, frog fish, and bottlenose dolphins, to name only five—and anatomical adaptations such as the eye, the brain, the backbone, and fins, this program illustrates how life populated the seas. Evidence of humankind’s evolutionary past is underscored in this aquatic realm of the beautiful and the bizarre. A BBCW Production. (51 minutes)
