Description

This lecture covers the evolution and genetics of color vision, focusing on X-linked recessive inheritance, the structure of the retina, photoreceptor cells, and the alignment of protein sequences. It also discusses the vision of different species, the loss and duplication of cone pigments, and the convergence of evolution in color vision. The instructor explains the genetic basis of color vision in mammals, birds, and primates, highlighting the role of gene duplication and mutation over millions of years.
