As the eel snags the mollusk in its teeth, its prey struggles to escape. But before it can wiggle away, a second set of teeth lunge from the eel’s throat. This adaptation is called a pharyngeal jaw, and is one of the most common adaptations under the sea. Darien Satterfield shares how this incredible skeletal mechanism works.Lesson by Darien Satterfield, directed by Zack Williams.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/real-life-alien-jaws-darien-satterfieldDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/real-life-alien-jaws-darien-satterfield#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://zackwilliams.work Composer: https://cargocollective.com/maxwellsorensen----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
