Q

Levels of structural organization (6)

A

A) Chemical level - atoms, molecules, etc.
B) Cellular level - basic structural and functional units of our bodies.
C) Tissue level - groups of similarly specialized cells that perform special functions = tissue example: pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium.
D) Organ level - Organ = structure made up of two or more tissues which performs a specific function in the body.
E) System level - an association of organs having a common function.
