Know this first

Living systems are understood by connecting a structure or process to its function under the stated condition.

Structure · The biological part or level being namedFunction · What that structure or process does

Gas exchange means oxygen in, carbon dioxide out

O₂ in
Surface
CO₂ out

Oxygen in, carbon dioxide out, across the respiratory surface

Name the respiratory surface first, then trace oxygen to it and carbon dioxide away from it. Different organisms use different surfaces.

Find the tested idea

Name the biological structure, molecule, organism or process first, then identify the condition that makes it distinctive.

Build the solution

Connect structure to function and trace the process in its correct order. Keep similar biological terms separate by the job each one performs.

Verify before choosing

Return to the exact wording and check that the result satisfies every stated condition, unit and definition.
