Human Anatomy and Body Systems
Levels of Organization
The human body is organized in several levels, from the
simplest to the most complex. . .
Cells – the basic unit of life
Tissues – clusters of cells performing a similar function
Organs – made of tissues that perform one specific
function
Organ Systems – groups of organs that perform a
specific purpose in the human body
***The purpose of the 11 organ systems is for the human
body to maintain homeostasis.
Homeostasis:
Internal environment is kept stable in spite of changes
in the external environment
Requires energy in the form of “calories”
