Organs
Organs
Structures composed of different tissues working together to perform specific functions. Examples in plants include flowers, roots, stems, and leaves. In animals, examples include skin, heart, stomach and lungs.
Organ Systems
Organ Systems
Collections of organs that work together to perform major bodily functions. In plants these are the root and shoot systems. In animals these include the digestive, circulatory, and respiratory systems.
Homeostasis
