IB 150: Organismal/Ecological Biology

Unlock the world of pathogens, the microorganisms causing diseases. Grasp how they invade, colonize, and adversely affect host organisms. Learn about prevention strategies to mitigate their harmful impacts.

Understand the anatomical significance and position of the lumbar region within the spinal structure. This video explains how the lumbar region which constitutes the lower back interacts with other areas like the popliteal and umbilical regions. Gain a clear perspective on its role in supporting body weight and its location relative to other spinal sections

Unpack the intricate processes within photosynthesis and identify which is most directly powered by light energy. Discover the critical role of chlorophyll in capturing solar power.

In this video, we explore virus structure, specifically focusing on glycoproteins that extend from the virus's surface. Four statements related to virus structure are examined for accuracy, including the presence of a viral membrane, the composition of capsomeres, the genetic material within viruses, and the role of glycoproteins in virus attachment to host cells. The video highlights the importance of glycoproteins in facilitating virus attachment to host cells, ultimately marking the initiatio

Explore Fluorine's electron configuration and its impact on chemical reactivity. Learn about electron shells, orbitals, and the quest for a complete valence shell.

Explore the pivotal role of enhancers in gene expression as we dissect their function and interaction with transcription factors. Gain insights into how they crucially influence the transcriptional control of genes.
