and they share private footage with us that's been seen before. back channel. people 26 on. kids creatures or plague infested pets. for more than 15000 years the lives of humans and mice have been deeply entwined. we'll be looking at their respective evolutionary journeys on today's show. hello and welcome to tomorrow today the science show on d

w. the formation of the sun dates back full in the halls billions years. then came the earth. what followed was a process known as biological evolution the 1st animals appeared some 600000000 years ago. humans are a relatively recent phenomena our evolution has been far from linear with new discoveries often turning old assumptions on their head. now thanks to a certain long tailed creature scientists could be one step closer to learning more about the origin of mankind. this mouse comes from taiwan this one is from iran. this one's german. well this one hails from france.

they might look similar but they're all from different some species and genetically quite different. professor towne sent his team caught the mice in their home countries and brought them to germany to the monks planck institute for evolutionary biology here they have their very own mice house with 24 rooms where they can stake out territory and. the scientists want to study how different some species undergo evolutionary development. the more they're going to vote as mice are a wonderful model for evolution and they adapt very quickly together with humans they've spread all over the globe and adapted to many different climates but they also provide a biomedical model where their genetics are well known and if we identify a gene in the context of an evolutionary development we can look up what its function is which gives us the combination of evolutionary biology and genetics or

inspiration. and community. mice have been around for some 500000 years 1st appearing in the area of modern day iran different subspecies soon developed the eastern the western and the southeastern asian house mouse. 15000 years ago they started associating with humans when the hunter gatherers settled in more permanent homes they were drawn by food stocks and food waste. from then on the my spot humans wherever they went the southeastern asian mouse moving to india and china the eastern house most in northern iraq and the western one spreading across the middle east and only later did mice come to europe. was the eastern house mouse came along the danube river that was about 6000 years ago the western mass came across. the mediterranean on ships around 3000 years ago

ships are clear it was middle america common for. ringback later they were carried by ship to the british isles and in the age of exploration to the americas australia and outposts like taiwan and the remote feral islands. the rodents. such as colder temperatures or different. studying what happens in their genome during this process has changed our understanding of evolution. 'd from. this there's always thought that 95 percent of the genome is junk. but we and other scientists discovered that these intermediate areas can actually be the birthplace for new genes and to an extent that we wouldn't have expected. their groups to target is the majority of the genome keeps getting overhauled and most of it is then lost. one animals adapt to new surroundings these genes are used and

retained to facilitate the adaptation process. another factor driving evolution is the choice of a mate the scientists decided to put western house mice from southern france together with others from the same subspecies from germany. from. the french and german my separation 3 millennia ago so there is far removed from each other as humans are from. but still they're able to breed and what about their offspring. with a father from southern france chose a southern french mate while mice with the german father did for germany that's because the genes that determine the mating process are passed on from the father. adopting to new conditions always goes hand in hand with an adaptation of the choice of the mace and switch to the rodents need to. find

a maze that is best adapted to the environment this week this is a must so it's always a coeval lucian's choice of made out of taishan that's how you get different strains emerging from then on mates are only chosen from within the same strain for your body guard duty here. house mine is only reached the german island of helgoland 400 years ago once again they had to adapt quickly owing to a lack of farmland the mines became carnivores feeding on worms and even other dead animals. today the helgoland mice no longer mate with new arrivals from the mainland and the different lines remain separate. the months long institute is also researching what happens when mice from different subspecies meet with each other. germany is home to both the western and the eastern house. the 2 are very different genetically but the scientists found they are able to maintain however their

offspring are weaker and often suffer from parasites but interestingly individual genes are replaced in the offspring that can help the rodents adapt to changing environmental conditions this is in this for sunni and what's fascinating is that a gene that they a passed on can then become dominant in the other population rigs on meters was there something that was also discovered in humans on the under tolls hybridise ation occurred between them and we still have some neanderthal genes today as wide . thanks to the humble house mouse we now better understand how new some species are formed and how adaptation to a new habitat is facilitated by both d.n.a. and behavior changes it's like watching a high speed evolution before our very eyes. from hunter gatherer is to set this. all the way to the office over telling our working world has evolved. the latest step in the process of working from home

during the pandemic one in 5 workers around the world to put jobs home. but even before then millions of people already work from home. in countries including zambia ghana bangladesh and indonesia over 15 percent of workers who work from home. now other nations like germany are playing catch up. when the pandemic hit 10 germany went into lockdown and a whole back had to begin working from home from one day to the next work posed a whole new set of challenges we visited her in her workspace at home. if you know hoffman is an expert on the flexible forms of work and is researching the impact of remote work on companies. and

a whole bag has a desk job working from home means she now spends no longer in front of her computer. so i tried to find some potential times for a meeting with management next week i proposed several options but they responded saying they could offer me an appointment at 7 in the evening. you shouldn't really be having meetings at that sort of time but you find yourself making more and more appointments outside normal working hours and i'm glad. it's become a common problem 65 percent of companies report that employees every increasingly likely to be working outside their normal working hours. being at home makes it easier to work more flexibly and there's no commute to an office. yet one international study shows that people are working an average of 48 minutes longer than they used to 56 percent of those questioned said their work. beyond that

contractual obligation it's left on a whole back exhausted she's constantly on call and feels there's no longer any clear separation between her work and her private life she's not alone a survey found that 65 percent of people say that the boundaries of blurred between work and home for parents of young children that can be very stressful so it's important to designate working and personal hours. i saw this needs to be communicated we shouldn't go around thinking they probably assume that i'm available all day so i should answer the phone immediately. i've got into the habit of putting appointments in my calendar that are just mean time to make a point that i'm not always available. for. 'd 70 percent questioned in another survey said that their employers can get in touch with them even when they're on holiday working at home also takes a physical toll 40 percent of people questioned in

a phone hoover institute study reported physical ailments such as back ache for many people their makeshift offices at home on time ideal for working out a whole bag says she also notices physical side effects. i get very cold feet. and my circulation has suffered. that's because she tends to move around less at home than she would in the office. sitting at a table for hours on end can restrict blood flow. cold feet is a common problem among people working remotely i've heard that a lot even before the pandemic as far as this problem goes people just need to exercise discipline they need to make sure they stand up regularly and walk around the block for 15 minutes they can do things to prevent it. people working from home rely heavily on technology almost 60 percent of people questioned in

a survey said they could do with better equipment and would appreciate it if their employers provided laptops and mobile phones the technology has to be fail proof. 'd tweaked during a virtual meeting there was a problem with the bandwidth so the video link didn't work. these video calls really have been helpful but this time we had to turn off the video function and. its affects the quality of communication. many people working from home experience technical difficulties and end up missing online meetings for example. think of the members everyone needs a basic reliable set up to work efficiently from home and then they need to have backup plans just in case i can always use my own phone. or

gotten used to giving out my private number because at least it's a stable connection. people need to have contingency plans in case things go wrong. when the tech works 85 percent of people who work at home say they miss personal contacts. it's good to get positive feedback from colleagues. last week i managed to finish a project i've been working on for 2 years. i was very pleased with that and it was a shame no one was there to share that with. their future of our. interaction with colleagues plays a big role in our working lives. with everyone working from home it's harder to maintain these relationships. as. people should reach out and share

news and so on they need to overcome their reservations take the initiative and communicate with people share good news that needs to be done consciously it can't just be left to chance. there's also less social contact because fewer people are traveling for work. man believes we're facing lasting change in the way we work. i don't necessarily think there will be fewer business trips in the future and i wouldn't want that to happen i think there are situations in which will need to meet people and see places to get a sense of them but i don't think we need to be catching 6 am flights just for some routine meetings there are other ways to do it. many companies agree before the pandemic some 12000000 people traveled on business in germany every year in all they made 119000000 trips.

but now 61 percent of employers say they're planning to cut down on them more often one consequence of the covert 1000 pandemic is that remote working will become more common it will also probably lead to greater flexibility and fewer business trips thanks to video calls one way or another will never be the same again. cracking nuts as no problem for a parrot. birds with less hardy big. x. on the other hand have to settle for soft if. the natural world is constantly adapting to its environment the process takes place over generations. global warming however is progressing at an alarming speed. prompting the hum it is rock up from egypt to ask. how with climate change

affecting wild animals. global warming means winters are getting warmer and shorter in many places. that's altering plant a more habitats with some destructive results. bears don't hibernate anymore or at least not as long as they used to when they would fatten themselves up in the fall for a 6 month rest. nowadays bears can eat well into the winter only going into hibernation when nothing was available. since it also now gets warmer earlier they wake up that much sooner their restaurant is cut short and at that time there's nothing around it. that makes them as aggressive even towards humans who want normally on their menu. climate change is also confusing migrates rebirths. caps no longer leave germany and head to spain

for the winter now a days they prefer spending the season in southern england. birds and robins can even stay put depending on local weather conditions. long haul species like stalks and cranes still follow their genetic programming and set out on annual migration. but the rapidly expanding deserts in africa combined with steadily dwindling sources of food and making life tough for them. among fish research showing that salmon are up to 8 percent smaller than a few years ago. climate change is the prime suspect terrorists well. some and mature faster and warming oceans and return it to younger age just spawning grounds in the upper reaches of the rivers where they came from. they fertilize their eggs in exactly the same place they themselves were conceived but today they're 4 years

old they used to do this at age 7. climate change is also threatening the green sea turtle with extinction. each season a female lays up to $600.00 eggs in the sun her offspring hatch after 2 to 3 months . temperature is a major factor in this process at $28.00 degrees celsius only male turtles hatch at $32.00 degrees only females in northern areas of australia's great barrier reef nearly all the offspring are now female and can't reproduce for lack of males. the w.w. app says climate change threatens around half of all animal species in the world's prime natural habitats with extinction. if outlook is right why are they buying it i mean. do you have a science question you'd like us to answer. send it in as a video text or voice mail. if we feature it on the show you'll get

a little surprise from us as a fact here come on just ask. you can get more science news on our website and on twitter. we did tend to consider cooking a high risk activity at least not for adults. nor do we think about the dangers of using so. phones and laptops but have you ever actually read the care instructions for a charger and you're not alone enough. explosions at home more common than you think. lovely breakfast with coffee rolls some cold cuts and where's the egg.

maybe we can cook it fast in the microwave let's say. well that wasn't a good idea what happened microwave radiation heats water molecules in the egg they expand and once they reach a certain temperature they have operates. blowing up the egg in the process. a right royal mess but this kind of blast is homeless compared to other household dangerous. like the cooking oil found in most kitchens potentially incendiary deodorant and has spray canisters and rechargeable lithium ion batteries a mobile phone so in cigarettes what's so dangerous about police things. well the firefighters from castles fire brigades i had to explain.

to my schmidt. tomas miller and yes home by. being called out to more and more household incidents today we'll show you some things that can go wrong at home as it was you know. that calls for some heavy equipment because things are about to go off with a bang. but it's safety 1st for these experiments. propellant gas in here and we're going to heat it up all the gospel expound on the camel burst. that's why this deodorant needs to be just in a cage to protect us from shrapnel. from at least 4 metres away a flame is applied to the can. the increased gas pressure inside bursts the can. all. this is something that

can happen to any canister containing propellant gas. is a warning on every car do not he's above 50 degrees celsius while in summer if you leave it lying around in the car it can easily reach 60 to 70 degrees that's enough for an explosion. if. pan is just a camping stove so filled entirely with pressurized flammable gas far too powerful and dangerous for us to experiment with. for gas explosions in buildings it depends on the amount of gas around when it ignites as to how bad the damage is for one the doors and windows get blown out 1st and if gas concentrations are volumes or high than even the outer walls can go over the whole structure on the. great challenge will lithium ion batteries are another potential disaster found in things like drones mobile phone ins and binds that charging capacity also harbors

a capacity for hom since they're highly flammable. the positive and negative poles of lithium ion accumulators are only separated by a thin plastic membrane if it gets damaged because. we're going to do that to a large rechargeable battery and cause a short circuit. the immediate result is a jet of toxic smoke followed by ignition a short while later. but short circuits can also be sparked by relatively minor damage such as a knock incorrect challenging it takes several minutes before the fire subsides. for you often have to deal with polymer battery inside the specially with them physically and so many cars now everybody because one so we have far is relatively often because they were damaged or left on a tangent while charging. now to the

really volcanic action beginning with an every day kitchen scene with a pan full of regular cooking oil. our firefighters speed things up by heating it with a gas burner so any normal stove hot plate does the job just as well. this is basically the 232240 degree temperature range where it starts to smoke your home a smoke detector would sound the alarm if you respond quickly enough so it's the cooker off and get the power off to one side then the danger is over nothing will happen. but what happens if the oil keeps heating up between 250 and 300 degrees it's hot enough to burst into flames and if you think pushing on the lid does the job think again it needs time to cool as well or it all

goes up in flames again. so what should you do. since you can see the far right next to it is the kitchen sink so it's natural to think of using water that's the worst thing you can possibly do with burning fossil. but why we get it impressive from a safe distance. anyone next to the stove could be severely burned during this experiment. it's easy to explain if water is denser than oil and sinks straight to the bottom of the pan. it's so hot that the water immediately evaporate. one liter of water is transformed instantly into 1700 liters of steam blasting the burning oil straight out of the pan as it expands what ever you do don't try this

oh as good right that's enough. and that's all from us to will have more fascinating stories from the world of science next time. until then it's bob i can take. a little.

this is the news line from international medical aid on the way to india as the country faces a devastating searching coronavirus can see is desperately needed oxygen latest full arrive in the next few days from germany the european union united states and britain. also on the program start at nights at the academy awards. and the. momentum. carries out was no my best picture out of 900 fat academy award

winning china becomes the 1st woman of color to take best director in a dive book screw up with. time fill gal welcome to the program. the united states and germany and the united kingdom are amongst the countries pledging medical assistance to india as it breaks global records for new covert 19 infections for the 5th consecutive day european union and the u.s. is sending ventilators and the rule materials for vaccines the situation is critical hospital beds are scarce morgues a full and 5 full medical oxygen is in short supply. a seriously ill covered 19 patient arrives at the hospital in a rickshaw but he has turned away

a side that side displays the number of available intensive care beds. my father 70 years old last night i bought an oxygen tank on the black market for about 440 euros but it's empty there are no beds and no oxygen. india's doctors are comparing this wave of infections through a tsunami this special clinic in delhi is overflowing with severely sick patients. at the entrance to the hospital patients like to see stone trolleys. leave. do something and these releases come off to supply people leaving here we believe very few people he played here. at the beginning of the year indian prime minister narendra modi declared the country had beaten the virus with its song and upcoming elections the government allowed huge political rallies to go

ahead. and despite rapidly rising infections it also permitted millions to gather for the komei the largest religious gathering in the world where hindu pilgrims pay then the river ganges gatherings are now limited to $500.00 people but the fires has already spread rapidly scientists are fearful about the weeks ahead only 10 percent of the population has been vaccinated. how do you think that if the government should send people door to door to vaccinate they should concentrate on the us germany is among the country sending urgently needed medical supplies as india comes to grips with the scale of the catastrophe. he's the co-founder and director. of hospitals he joins us from delhi welcome to. how your hospital is coping. it's much worse than you can imagine.

as a doctor as an entrepreneur who is being used to being in control of my life i have never worked for anyone as soon as a buzz out of medical school i became an entrepreneur and i am used to making decisions and getting them implemented but i feel so helpless now i get more than 500 calls every day from people last thing for beds asking for our city and asking for help. but those are not working even to capacity monday or doctors and nurses are very good to work because we are not sure where not oxygen will run out. and it's been burning out we been scrambling to get patients to safety is coming to operate regular does without oxygen and with our own hands it's. i hope we needed. help and i am trying to do your channel that now we have that people are flying in . instruments and offices and concentrators in doing that things will become better

cases are the numbers are at least stabilizing in the north nordic pleasing but it up early bird unfortunately this way of seems to be going eastwards insult words now we've heard we're hearing that positivity to it all and all crossing even 40 percent so for each to every person that you are testing 2 people you are testing you getting one positive so the positive id it's a very high in bangalore and all the way it is increasing so we need passing through it i think we may be establishing a good wilkie broadway point to other parts of the why hasn't it been hit so badly . so i think we i called it does not me but i think it's even worse than the tsunami we it's like an inferno in the tsunami at least if you cling on to something and do you will survive but it's like an

inferno it will burn anything that instead of having people dying in their homes and not even get. a clue bags are not available i think the sheer size of the population and the fact that there are big metropolitan cities congested areas and dividers as mutated we have seen double moved into a this is triple. well now so. this is a hugely prevalent in the north part of the north part of the country so a mix of all these factors i think is leading to this huge and for no that's engulfing everything in its spot so does this mean that india just has to sort of sit this out and let this inferno through the country or can the health system can the government somehow get a grip of this. so we are only trying our best to get as much of

medical care as possible the. vaccination for 18 words i think we'll be one of the bright factors that will stop the pandemic in its . turn we have coming in. 2000 beds already and they will be starting 2000 more beds in delhi looks in support of the next 3 days i think will help in getting his people to oxygen beds in dying getting they recovered instead of letting them stay in their rooms or. places 200. or directions is full of hospital beds that. people who come out of those beds which they could not find in the city. from cygnus hospital so we wish you

well and thank you for joining us thank you we'll take a look at some of today's other pandemic developments the european union is suing foxy maker astra zeneca over delays in deliveries after the company b. juiced its supply commitment by 2 thirds this year singapore have confirmed. in my travels will be allowed to fly between the cities without going into quarantine if they meet strict conditions and israel's health ministry says it is examining whether cases of hard information on linked to the pfizer vaccine most were reported in men under 30. now 2 other stories making news around the world will start in iraq where funerals of been held for some of the 82 victims of a hospital fighting baghdad officials say the blaze broke out when an oxygen tank exploded the hospital treating some of the city's most severe coby 1000 cases victims' families say negligence and corruption contributed to the disaster. iran

a possible shop in the arm for europe's tourism sector the e.u. is preparing to welcome american travelers again beginning this summer as the vaccination campaign in the u.s. its stride also coming up with some opening scenarios between the u.s. and the e.u. being discussed how long will african air travel still be ground we'll get an expert's view and too few too late the e.u. commission is suing vaccine maker astra zeneca what the block claims are

insufficient deliveries of cozy japs. and chris caldwell welcome to the program for more than a year the e.u. has banned non-essential travel from most countries in an effort to limit the spread of the corona but now with ever growing parts of the us population having received the covert job the e.u. is planning to welcome u.s. travelers that have been fully vaccinated the summer. from basketball courts to ballparks a monumental effort across the united states since the start of the year means over 200000000 vaccine doses have now gone into american arms. it's bringing a full return to international travel for u.s. citizens closer and closer and some of their favorite tourism destinations are keen to welcome them back regarding the issue of travel from the u.s. to europe particularly the summer that we really start by saying that we have been

following very closely the progress of vaccination indian ited states and we we seek to restore transatlantic travel as soon as it is safe to do so the return of americans this summer would come as a huge relief to e.u. member states like greece which rely heavily on holidaymakers travelers from outside the european union are enormously important to the block and over the past year the continent's tourism hotspots have been missing them in normal times the e.u. would welcome 500000000 people from overseas bringing with them 340000000000 euros in revenue with international tourism accounting for 10 percent of the used g.d.p. . the decision to allow only vaccinated americans into the e.u. comes with its challenges precisely how would that work what we will probably have is a framework a technical framework so an app with a coat that can show whether you have been vaccinated that can show whether you have been infected with the disease or whether you have been recently tested what

then each an individual member state will make with these results so if you have been tested negative what you can do with it that is up to each individual member states of the e.u. . well once the technology has been worked out and americans stunt jetting off on that flights across the atlantic europe's beaches stand ready to welcome them. but it's take a look at the travel sector the aviation sector in africa around 54000000 passengers flew by air to from and within africa last year compare that figure to 29000 it was more than twice as many passengers as a result airline revenues slumped by $14000000000.00 due to the coronavirus restrictions now there could be worse to come with kenya airways this month suspending its flights to the u.k. because of new coven 19 restrictions for travelers for more let's bring in.

pan am he's an aviation expert in johannesburg welcome to the program potential we heard about the plans for transatlantic travel here or is there some similar glimmer of hope for african carriers. good evening to give us i think the the problem that we are still facing here enough because he's upset most airline stocks national k.t.s. which is those airlines that we're operating basically across the atlantic and many other destinations and majority of them some of them to fixity close down and some of them they've ceased operation based on the biscuit business risk you claimed that they have put in tetley and tucked into so we are not necessarily spent this far as that is consent so some of the airlines that are operating among such it can continue into the low cost carrier and as well as the the this more nations there

that have smaller. operations they have been trying so much that they can get back to numb on but yesterday that it sticks in sa preventing them from doing that and will not spend it as their if it can and i guess we are faced with a mom of just do you think more carriers on the african continent are going to go under south african airlines has been having problems aaron to maybe facing problems what's your take on that. yeah look at the coverage is going to stay with us for quite some time and disaffect and they come out of the airlines like south african airways which has announced that we've just lost the open ocean the beginning of july sub sometimes in july or sometime in june which is something that we get to see and but when you look at it then tie up the can continent looking at kenya looking at ethiopia and then you won't move to nigeria in nigeria as that did
