functional levels of increasing complexity.

 Each higher level incorporates the structures and

 CHEMICAL OR MOLECULAR LEVEL

 The chemicals that make up the body may be

divided into two major categories :

INORGANIC CHEMICALS ORGANIC CHEMICALS

 Are usually simple  Are often very

molecules complex and always
made of one or two contain the elements
elements other than carbon and
carbon. hydrogen.

2. CELLULAR LEVEL - CELL
 The smallest living units of structure and
function are CELLS.

 There are many different types of human

cells, though they all have certain similarities.

 Each type of cell is made of chemicals and
carries out specific chemical reactions.

 The human body is composed of trillions of cells, all

with their own specialized function.
3. TISSUES

 It is a group of cells with similar

structure and function.
4. ORGAN
 An organ is a group of tissues precisely arranged so
as to accomplish specific functions.
