Animal Form and Function: Hormonal Control https://youtu.be/Ieh-GvUUgpE

In this video I go over hormones, which are signalling molecules that are secreted by internal glands and transported through the blood to regulate distant organs.

Animal Form and Function: Muscles and Movement https://youtu.be/0MaTRCQJDZ0

In this video I go over the muscular system of animals, which for vertebrates consists of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. I also go over how a worm moves via peristalsis (contraction of its circular muscles) and how an insect flies via its asynchronous flight muscles.

Cell Communication via Autocrine, Paracrine, Juxtacrine, and Hormone Signaling https://youtu.be/OJBmArgxkoI

In this video I go over cell signaling which is the ability of cells to communicate with its environment, other cells, or with itself. Signals can be non-chemical such as light, electrical impulses, heat, or chemical signals via ligands (molecules or ions that bind to a central atom forming a complex with a specific function).

Cellular Respiration: Glycolysis, Citric Acid Cycle, Lactic Acid Fermentation, Anaerobic Respiration https://youtu.be/0IP_G0QmfjI

In this video, I provide a detailed look at cellular respiration, the set of metabolic reactions and processes in cells that convert chemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is considered the 'energy currency of the cell.'

Metabolism: Thermodynamics, Redox (Reduction-Oxidation) Reactions, Fermentation https://youtu.be/Qr5F0YldFBk

In this video I go over metabolism, which is the set of life-sustaining chemical reactions in organisms. Metabolic reactions can be categorized into catabolic (which break down molecules) or anabolic (which build up or synthesize molecules).
