Thinking in Structure and Function: Level 4 - Structures at Varying Scale

Mr. Anderson explains the concept of structure and function at varying scales, focusing on Velcro and Band-Aids. He demonstrates how to identify systems and analyze them at both macroscopic and microscopic levels. The video encourages viewers to explore the relationship between structure and function, using examples like Velcro fasteners and flexible Band-Aids, to understand how microscopic details can explain macroscopic behaviors.
