I'm surprised NO ONE is talking about the narrator's voice! Her way of speaking it and tone was soo soothing. That's one of the best voices I've heard in a while.
Actually these are the type of things you know it works exactly because no one mentions it, it means it properly makes the content flow so the viewer can focus 100% on it
Slit-pupils have another effect: movement across the visual field is 'amplified' whereas movement up and down is 'diminished'. Aside from telling distance, the vertical slit activates more rods and cones when side to side movement is being observed. PIR motion detectors use patterns of lenses and a single sensing element in a similar way.
Speaking of POV I always assumed slit pupils were most common in small, grassland predators to maximize seeing vertically through grass, for ex. small cats, as opposed to the round pupiled large cats, or the artic/mountain cats with open terrain. Good to know all the nuances.
0:01 because they stalk in grass. It helps them focus and target the prey. Horses and goats and sheeps have horizontal pupils and their eyes positioned on the side of their heads so when their head goes down, so they can still keep a look out for predators. If you are wondering if they can't detect predators coming in front, that is why their are the way the are. Surprisingly tigers do not have vertical pupils.
I love how everything relating to human biology basically comes down to us being the ultimate everyman. Like we aren't the best at everything, but we are the most adaptable.
@@user-zi4kk9xn5b if you say that is subjective, you cannot measure inteligence at all. how does that make any sense? do you really think humans aren't any better than mosquitoes or any simpler animal? i don't see them building skycrapers or high tech devices like the ones we are using
I love this channel! I always feel so smart after watching the videos but they aren't boring and keep you entertained! They cover about every topic you would want to know about!
But won't it just change when the cat is indoors? I'm almost imagining cats being kept outside sitting belly up, with their tails swinging back and forth like pendulums on an antique clock.
@@macmacbrazze3234 it changes according to the light, so, if the cat is indoors or outdoors, what influences their pupils is the sun. usually cats' pupils are the most dilated between 6-8ish o'clock both am and pm
My Filipino grandmother once told me that the cat's eyes can also be an indicator if it is high or low tide, but I've never verified it so idk if it's true
There's this thing called Evolution and Natural Selection, but I guess those who're blind by their beliefs will never except it, You can believe whatever you want but when that believe deny Scientific facts that's when you should know that you're wrong
The one with geckos was so cool to know about. Different points of focus allow the gecko to calculate distance it needs to capture pray like a mathematical formula.
Yeah they learn real quick not to chase their food but to rather sit and wait for thwm to come to it and leopard geckos well start to slowly sway their tails back and forth when they have a lock on food and then just before they lung they shake their tails just like a rattle snake does
I just love TEDED for answering all those random questions I get from my kids and things I’ve always wondered about but never remembered to look up. But most of all I love it for the quality animations, and illustrations.
after watching an Arthur Isaac video of him mentioning that squids becoming sapient and building a civilization isn't something we consider a threat... I think there's more reason for concern now
I'm so glad this wound up going into detail about a couple other pupil types, after mentioning them at the start. On a lighthearted note, those two people at the end were waving silently at each other for a really awkward length of time. XD
My dearest. We love you. Your content is really an entertaining window into your soul. That is what makes people fans of you. It's a relationship. Your vulnerability not only makes your comedy hit hard, it makes us feel comfortable and makes you so wonderfully relatable. Stay safe and know that you matter to us as a human being. So, please be safe and take care.
Would have loved a mention about the Mantis Shrimp, it has some of the best vision in all of the animal kingdom, curious to know what their pupils are like.
I usually enjoy TED-Ed videos, but I’d like to submit a correction for this video. At time 1:41 there is a drawing of what appears to be some type of cobra snake. It is a common misconception that all venomous snakes (like cobras) have slit pupils. However, cobras are part of the elapidae family of snakes, and while venomous, this family of snakes has ‘round’ pupils, not ‘slits’ as indicated. The elapidae family is generally considered to be diurnal (hunt during the day). The viperidae family of snakes, on the other hand, are ‘ambush predators’ and do have the characteristic slit pupil as they hunt at night, yet what is pictured is not a viper.
Ever since we evolved out of the oceans, our eyes are basically similar to that of fish from the exterior and it still needs seawater to maintain it's health.
All cells in the body require isotonic fluids with the same concentration of NaCl as seawater otherwise the cells will absorb too much water and burst or lose water and die.
my question is, from house cats to tigers and lions, when do the pupils change shape? big cats seem to have circular pupils.. .this has always been of interest to me
It reminds me of two scientist who write a book on the answers they give to the questions asked by children Ted ed is doing same kind of work by answering our diff curiosities Great work guys😄
If We could transfer genetic traits of one species to another, it'll certainly take the evolutionary process to whole another level! Just imagine Mimicing Limb Regenerations from lizards or making an actual Vampire from bats DNA code or even bring back some extinct species!! *But the most Important thing is that Curiosity!* Just don't stop asking such questions and maybe one day you actually make it possible.
Well? I _do_ want to know! Hoping for a part two of this video to come out sometime in the future!! Perhaps we can explore more in-depth the eye of the cuttle fish, or the heart-shaped pupil of a frog! :]
Can you or would you do a video on how preditory birds such as an eagle can see a mouse at a mile away, and at at distents so close it would be able to eat it clearly. I can only assume that birds of prey have a sort of binocular vision. Which they can control as we do when view something far away to something farthure away. But are mandated to have to choose the particular lens measure in degree of power such as a 10mm to the use of a 20 mm. Birds of prey seem to have not only binocular visison but the ability to alter the lens.
This video was amazing and answered so many questions I had. The only thing I’d like to point out is while some snakes do have vertical pupils (like snakes from the boa, python and viper families) not all of them do, and the cobra that was depicted in this video would actually have round pupils. But thats a pretty minor detail. Apart from that, this video was amazing!
The Cuttlefishes W eye is so shaped because even though they are “colour blind” their unique pupil causes chromatic aberration, splitting the incoming light into rainbow bands which the cuttlefishes brain can then interpret as separate colours.
Es increíble como el cerebro tiene software de los tipos de ojos, lo interesante es similitudes de diseño en los ojos, al parecer es mejor los ojos de Tigre y otros felinos grandes por sus tipos de pupilas y nitidez de cazador, creo los biológos saben más, sería interesante ver cuál sería el ojo humano evolucionado a futuro. Los gatos con pupilas redondas adaptados al ser humano y otras características serían cosas de especies domésticas a futuro lejos de lo salvaje, sería cosa de seleccion y evolución por parte del ser humano.
Its so cool that Ted Ed answers all these questions that randomly pops in our mind in such a unique, well researched and beautiful way.

I know right!!! The funny thing is,I had thought about this same thing few days back when I looked into my cat's eye!! Goshhhh what a coincidence!!!!!
Just what I was thinking...they always answer random questions that pops up in our mind
I agree
Why doesn't my nuts hang equally?
She narrated it so beautifully and along with the adorable pictures by the artists. It didn't feel like a lesson, it felt like a therapy.

Better question, why do they look SO CUTE when their pupils dilate?
ikr
Yeah, why DO they look so cute about 0.7 seconds before they pounce on me with murderous intent?
In my theory, it might be because we associate them with eyes of babies.
probably because that's when they look more baby-like
It's to lower our defense before they pounce on us.
Please make a part 2! It was very interesting and well explained. I'm more of a social science person, and even I was able to understand everything

Don't just end the video tell us more about the cuttlefish pupils
I think they have cuttlefish pupils to see whats above or below them, that way they dont have to rotate their whole body to see.
The pupils are long too, which could indicate that they have to see what's in front of them in the water.
Jesus
Loves you!
Her voice is so relaxing. Almost fell asleep listening❤️
0:51 - 0:56
I like this fast animation of how this cat meows, makes a leap and then looks toward us as we're watching.
That whole rotating eyeballs in goats is crazy 😮
These video's feel like like bedtime stories. I love them.

This was fantastic. This was well designed and a joy to watch, great work everyone involved!

Ever since we evolved out of the oceans, our eyes are basically similar to that of fish from the exterior and it still needs seawater to maintain it's health.
That'll be the Aqueous humor, the fluid between the cornea and lens, deeper inside the eyes is vitreous humor, a jelly-like substance
All cells in the body require isotonic fluids with the same concentration of NaCl as seawater otherwise the cells will absorb too much water and burst or lose water and die.

Sure I'll keep exploring with these videos.
Wouldn't vertical pupils also help in focusing on objects while hiding in grass/brush as a lot of those smaller ambush predators would do?

Armored suckermouth catfish (loricariids, or "plecos") have an omega iris that can shade the pupil, creating a U-shaped opening to the eye.
Ending the video with a question, so eyeopening Ted
