Each major group of organisms has evolved its own body part “tool kit" – a collection of structures that have evolved in ways that make specific functions possible. From capturing food to digesting it, and from reproducing to breathing, organisms use structures that have evolved into different forms as species have adapted to life in different environments. The structure of wings, for example enable birds and insects to fly. The structures of legs enable horses to gallop and kangaroos to hop. a. Think about your own teeth. What kinds of foods do you think human teeth are suited for? b. List at least three ways the structure of human teeth serves the function of eating these food materials. c. Now, finally apply the theme of structure and function to something you're very familiar with - your hands. List out all the ways you can think of that the structure of your hands serve the function of your hands.arrow_forwardWhy do you think biology is important?

- In the new paradigm, biology is a science based on three levels of molecular information: Biology is a science of information: starting from discovery of DNA and the genetic code, now biologists study how that information is stored, how it is used, and how it evolves. Biologists can take advantage of the same molecular tools to analyze different biological systems, comparing and contrasting the details of information storage and processing that information.
