Structures and Functions of Living Things: CKSci Student Reader
Structures and Functions of Living allows students to explore a key concept in biology, that structure is related to function. The structure of a bird’s wing is related to the function of flying. The bright color associated with a flower’s structure is related to the function of attracting insects for pollination as part of reproduction. All plants and animals have both external and internal structures that work together as systems that enable organisms to survive, grow, and reproduce.
