    Study Notes

    Language Complexity

    • Languages around the world vary in complexity, with no simple language being universally accepted as a benchmark.

    Linguistic Hierarchy

    • Languages are structured and organized in a hierarchical manner, with different levels of complexity.

    Simple Language

    • pidgin languages are examples of simple languages, which are simplified language systems used for communication between groups of people who do not share a common language.

    Biological Organization

    • The correct order of biological organization from simplest to most complex is: atoms, molecules, organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and organisms.

    Protoplasm Composition

    • 99% of the protoplasm in living organisms is made up of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen.

    Sub-atomic Particles

    • Bosons are not a type of sub-atomic particle that makes up the structure of atoms; the three main sub-atomic particles are protons, neutrons, and electrons.

    Organism Organization

    • The organism level of biological organization includes the arrangement of different parts to support life functions, such as the nervous system, circulatory system, and digestive system.

    Bio-elements

    • The six bio-elements that make up the bodies of organisms are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur.
