Question
All living things are organized. For this question, think about the levels of organization in the human body: organ system, organ, tissue, cell, molecule, atom.
First, choose any organ system that we covered this semester, and explain its role in the body. Next, choose any organ in that system, and explain its specific function within the system. Next, choose any tissue type in that organ, and explain how it specifically helps the organ do its job. Next choose any cell type in that particular tissue, and explain how it contributes to the tissue’s function. Finally, choose any molecule (or atom) found in that specific cell and explain what the cell uses that molecule for.

A session.masteringbiology.com S HW 6 of 8 of an Animal Cell: Structures and Functions (BioFlix tutorial) ne cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms. To understand how an organism works, you must first understand how its cells are structured nd the roles that each structure performs in the cell. Before beginning this tutorial, watch the Tour of an Animal Cell animation to learn about the general structure of an animal cell. Although animals are made up of nany different cell types (for example, nerve cells, blood cells, muscle cells), all of the cells share many basic similarities with the cell shown in the animation.
