Levels of Biological Organization Learning Objective Differentiate the different levels of biological organizations. Levels of Biological Organization refers to the hierarchy of abiotic and biotic parts arranged from the simplest to the most complex forms of life. ATO M Atoms are the smallest and the most fundamental unit of matter. MOLECUL E ATO M A molecule is a combination of atoms either by ionic or covalent bonding. ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Organelles are structures that exist inside the cells. CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M The cell is the basic unit of life. TISSU E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M A tissue is a group of cells that performs the same function. ORGA N TISSU E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Organs are group of tissues performing a specific functions. BODY SYSTEM ORGA N TISSU E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Organ systems consist of two or more organs working together to perform a common ORGANIS M BODY SYSTEM ORGA N TISSU E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Organisms are composed of different body systems. Organisms are recognizable and self-contained individuals. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N TISSU E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Organisms of the same species in a certain area make up a population. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N COMMUNIT TISSU Y E CEL L ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M Community refers to the combination of different populations in a particular area. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N COMMUNIT TISSU Y E CEL ECOSYSTE L M ORGANELL E MOLECUL E ATO M A cluster of communities with the abiotic parts in that area makes up an ecosystem. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N COMMUNIT TISSU Y E CEL ECOSYSTE L M ORGANELL E MOLECUL BIOM E E ATO M A biome is composed of plants , animals , and other abiotic factors that have common characteristics due to the environment they exist in. For easy identification of the biomes, you can relate them to your favorite movies. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N COMMUNIT TISSU Y BIOSPHER E E CEL ECOSYSTE L M ORGANELL E MOLECUL BIOM E E ATO M The biosphere comprises all the ecosystems. It is the zone of life on earth. ORGANIS POPULATIO M BODY N SYSTEM ORGA N COMMUNIT TISSU Y BIOSPHER E E CEL ECOSYSTE L M ORGANELL E MOLECUL BIOM E E ATO M FORMATIVE ACTIVITY What is the most complex level of organization? a.
