Topic

Rational Functions

Description

Examines surface area to volume ratios in animals using rational functions, connecting these ratios to evolutionary adaptations in different climates.

Relevance: This video provides a practical perspective on Rational Functions, making abstract concepts more accessible through real-world applications.

Teacher's Script: "Today, we'll explore an application of rational functions. In this video, you'll see how examines surface area to volume ratios in animals using rational functions, connecting these ratios to evolutionary adaptations in different climates. Get ready to think critically about how these mathematical principles work in action."
