Mammals I
Vertebrates 5
When we talk about animals in everyday conversation, we mostly talk about mammals. Mammals live in water, on land and in the air. Countless species of the most diverse sizes and appearances populate our earth. A clear classification is not always possible because of their adaptation to their different habitats. DVD 1: Mammals 1 The first DVD begins with describing the characteristics of mammals, their reproduction and development as well as the regulation of their body temperature. The film illustrates features they have in common, but also looks into the huge differences within the class of mammals. DVD 2: Mammals 2 The second DVD first focuses on the different ways of searching for food and digesting it. Then differences in the brain and sense organs are outlined. The last part looks into the homology of mammals whose basic body structure is unvarying despite their adaptation to the most diverse habitats.

Ceramic
Ceramics are indispensable in our everyday lives. We eat from ceramic plates, drink from ceramic cups, use tiled ceramic bathrooms. But how is ceramic manufactured? The film reveals the secrets of this fascinating material! We get to know more about the beginnings of ceramic in the Old World of Egypt and Mesopotamia, about Greece, China and Rome. We gain interesting insights into the valuable earthenware and are also shown the exquisite further development of the "white gold". Today this versatile material is irreplaceable in industry, too. Whether in space or as an easily compatible substitute in medicine, ceramic is applied in many places.
