The Cerebral Cortex: Its Functions and What It Doesn't Govern Explaine
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Uncover the key roles of the cerebral cortex, from cognition and memory to emotional regulation. Compare its functions to those of the hypothalamus, particularly regarding circadian rhythms. Get the answer to what the cerebral cortex doesn't govern.
Examples of Adaptation: Human Nutrition, Duck's Webbed Feet, Raccoon's
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the concept of adaptation in this video, where we evaluate four scenarios to determine which represents a heritable trait enhancing an organism's survival in its environment. Learn how the webbed feet of a duck exemplify a true adaptation, enabling it to thrive in its habitat.
Aldosterone & Target Cells: Intracellular Receptor Insights
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Learn why lipid-soluble signaling molecules like aldosterone only impact specific target cells. We discuss four theories and reveal that intracellular receptors present only in target cells are the key. This video demystifies the unique mechanism behind aldosterone's selective action.
