A & P Chapter 1:2 Structural And Functional Organization

Front 1

Name the 6 levels of organization for the human body

Back 1

Chemical, Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism

Front 2

Explain the Chemical Level

Back 2

involves interactions between atoms, which are tiny building blocks of matter. Atoms can combine to form molecules such as water, sugar, fats and protiens.. The function of a molecule is related intimately to its structure.

Front 3

What is a cell

Back 3

the basic unit of all living things.

Front 4

Explain the Cell Level

Back 4

Molecules can combine to form organelles which are small structures that make up cells.

Front 5

Explain the Tissue Level

Back 5

A tissue is a group of similar cells and the materials surrounding them.

Front 6

Name the four basic types of tissues

Back 6

epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous

Front 7

Explain the Organ Level

Back 7

is composed of two or more tissue types that perform one or more common functions. (urinary Bladder)

Front 8

Explain the Organ System Level

Back 8

an organ system is a group of organs that have a common function or set of functions and are therefore viewed as a unit. (Urinary System)

Front 9

Explain the Organism

Back 9

is any living thing considered as a whole, wheather composed of one cell such as a bacterium or of trillions of cells such as a human.

Front 10

organelle

Back 10

structure within a cell that preforms one ot more specific functions

Front 11

tissue

Back 11

a group of similar cells and the materials surrounding them.

Front 12

organ

Back 12

two or more tissue types that perform one or more common functions

Front 13

organ system

Back 13

group of organs classified as a unit because of a common set of functions.
