To survive, multicellular animals must transport oxygen to their cells, obtain energy from food, regulate internal conditions, and remove waste products from the body. Yet, natural selection has acted over millions of years to produce diverse solutions to these challenges. In this class, we'll use a comparative lens to understand the physiology of how the body functions.
