This episode is intended for use to introduce AP Biology Unit 2 - Too Much of a Good Thing? which explores the topics of Cell Structure and Function by exploring the cellular basis of disease. During this unit, students will conduct an experiment to evaluate claims about the proposed cause of Bruce Lee's death.
