Structure relates to function. Organs and organ systems function together to provide homeostasis in organisms. The functioning of organs depends upon multiple organ systems.
Standard 3
Students will understand the relationship between structure and function of organs and organ systems.
Objective 1
- Describe the structure and function of organs.
- Diagram and label the structure of the primary components of representative organs in plants and animals (e.g., heart – muscle tissue, valves and chambers; lung – trachea, bronchial, alveoli; leaf – veins, stomata; stem – xylem, phloem, cambium; root – tip, elongation, hairs; skin – layers, sweat glands, oil glands, hair follicles; ovaries – ova, follicles, corpus luteum).
- Describe the function of various organs (e.g. heart, lungs, skin, leaf, stem, root, ovary).
- Relate the structure of organs to the function of organs.
- Compare the structure and function of organs in one organism to the structure and function of organs in another organism.
- Research and report on technological developments related to organs.
Objective 2
- Describe the relationship between structure and function of organ systems in plants and animals.
- Relate the function of an organ to the function of an organ system.
- Describe the structure and function of various organ systems (i.e., digestion, respiration, circulation, protection and support, nervous) and how these systems contribute to homeostasis of the organism.
- Examine the relationships of organ systems within an organism (e.g., respiration to circulation, leaves to roots) and describe the relationship of structure to function in the relationship.
- Relate the tissues that make up organs to the structure and function of the organ.
- Compare the structure and function of organ systems in one organism to the structure and function in another organism (e.g., chicken to sheep digestive system; fern to peach reproductive system).
