Question
Chapter 1.5, Problem 5QC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The relationship between structure and function, and the levels oforganization to which this relationship applies.
Introduction:
The four core principles of anatomy and physiology are feedback loops, the relationship between structure and function, gradients, and cell–cell communication. The principle of complementarity of structure and function is the most basic principle, which states that form follows function.
