LS1A - Structure and Function

The video, presented by Polly Anderson, covers Life Science Core Idea 1A, focusing on the relationship between structure and function in organisms. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of anatomy and physiology, then progresses through educational levels. At the elementary level, students learn about the structure and function of plants and animals. In middle school, the focus shifts to cellular biology, emphasizing the role of cells in life processes. High school students explore biochemistry, macromolecules, and feedback loops, understanding how these elements maintain homeostasis.

What role do cells play in the survival of organisms?

Describe the structure and function of the cell membrane.

How do feedback loops help maintain homeostasis in organisms?
