2. Describe, identify, and explain, with examples, important biological concepts, such as homeostasis, the relationship between biological structure and function, the organization of the body, growth and development from birth to adulthood, and the regulation and communication to control body functions.
3. Explain how homeostatic systems work to maintain human health and fail to work in specific diseases and disorders.
