Study Notes
Biological Systems
- A biological system is a group of organs and tissues that work together to perform a specific function necessary for survival.
Macro Scale Biological Systems
- Examples include: nervous system, circulatory system, immune system, and digestive system.
Biological Systems at Organ and Tissue Scale
- Examples in mammals and other animals: nervous system, circulatory system, immune system, muscular system, skeletal system, endocrine system, and digestive system.
- The integumentary system is a biological system at this scale, but the skin alone is not a biological system.
Micro to Nanoscopic Scale Biological Systems
- Examples: cells, cellular organelles, ribosomes, and protein complexes.
Respiratory System Component
- The diaphragm is a component of the respiratory system.
