Episode 45, Human Anatomical Errors Part 3
Today we are wrapping this series up and covering a lot of topics!
These include the appendix, our skin, the digestive system, toenails, the abdomen, the nasal sinuses, the ACL, the Achilles tendon, how humans have way too many bones, our demanding diets, the immune system, and ‘junk’ DNA.
Let’s discuss our quirks, thanks to good old evolution!
