Summary Introduction

To review:

The differences among the cell, tissue, organ, organ system and organism.

Introduction:

The complexity of an organization depends upon the level of organization. A single cell organism consists of a single cell. A group of a cell performing a specific function in a similar manner is known as a tissue. The tissue forms an organ, which has specific functions. A group of organs performing different functions of a system of the body is known as an organ system. The combination of different organ system constitutes an organism.

Explanation of Solution

The cells are the fundamental and the smallest unit of life. The cell is the basis of an organism. The cell is considered as the smallest unit that is living and is also capable to grow. These cells are organized in a functional manner in a multicellular organism. The cells that function in a similar manner are known as a tissue.

The organs are the structures made up of tissues to perform a specific task by working together. The multiple numbers of organs working together for their specific functions forming a system of the body are known as an organ system. The number of organ systems performing different functions in the body of an organism is known as an organism. Therefore, there are different levels of organization in an organism. The different levels of organizations differ in their complexity based on their functions.

Conclusion

The various levels of organization in an organism differ on the basis of their functions and the complexity of their organizations.

Build a model of a prokaryotic cell using any material of your choice. In your model be sure to include all the structures appropriate to your cell. You may model a bacterial cell or an archaea. You will model at least 4 structures in any model. Next, build a model of a virus using the same type of materials. You may choose any type of virus but be sure you can illustrate the key features of a virus (head shape for example). Once complete, take multiple photographs of your models from all angles. Include these images in a document that also contains the following completed table format. You may need to add rows to your table depending on the type of prokaryote you model. Structure Model Key Found in Different in Function Virus Virus Once your model is complete, write a brief description of your cell and your virus. Emphasize features that are absent in viruses that classify them as non-living. You can refer to specific structures in your table in this explanation. Some suggestions for…
(This is a 2-part work, Part 1 is done, only Part 2 is to be worked on at the bottom)Part 1 (Done): Describe the levels of structural hierarchy for the human body, starting with the organismal level and ending with the chemical level. In addition, you should make sure you link each level to the previous level, emphasizing the structural relationships. The human body is organized into a structural hierarchy that progresses from the macroscopic organismal level down to the microscopic chemical level. Each level builds upon the previous one, creating increasingly complex structures. Below is the hierarchy, from largest to smallest, with explanations linking each level to its predecessor:   1. Organismal Level The entire living human body.Relationship: All lower levels work together to sustain life at this highest level.   2. Organ System Level Groups of organs working together to perform major functions.Examples: circulatory, nervous, digestive systems.Relationship: The organismal…
