  • Cells, Tissues, Organs & Organ Systems: A Biological Hierarchy
    That's not quite right! A group of cells is called a tissue.

    Here's a breakdown of how cells organize:

    * Cell: The basic unit of life.

    * Tissue: A group of similar cells working together to perform a specific function (e.g., muscle tissue, nervous tissue).

    * Organ: A structure made of different tissues that work together for a common purpose (e.g., heart, brain).

    * Organ System: A group of organs that work together to carry out major bodily functions (e.g., digestive system, circulatory system).

    * Organism: A complete living being made up of all these levels of organization.
