Study Notes
Levels of Biological Organization
- A group of cells are called tissues
- A group of tissues are called organs
- A group of organs are called organ systems
Plant Organs
- Plant organs include roots, stems, and leaves
Organ Systems
- An organ system is a group of organs with related functions that work together to perform body functions
Ecology
- Organisms of the same species that live in the same area make up a population
- All populations that live in the same area make up a community
- A community includes populations of different species, such as fish, coral, and other organisms
Ecosystem
- An ecosystem consists of all living organisms (biotic factors) and nonliving environment (abiotic factors) in a specific area
- The nonliving environment includes water, sunlight, soil, and other physical factors
Biodiversity
- Life on Earth is very diverse
Learn about the hierarchy of organization in living organisms, from cells to organ systems. Understand how cells form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs form organ systems.
