Organization
![Page 2: Ths general biology unit 2 our bodies living organization notes_v1516](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070522/58eddca71a28ab7a498b45d3/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
(1) Living Organization• All living things are made of cells and
atoms/molecules.
• Levels of Organization:– Atoms – Cells (Basic units of life.)– Tissues (Similar cells working on a common function.)– Organs (Different tissues working on a common function.)– Organ Systems
(Different organs working on a common function.)– Organism (All organ systems maintaining homeostasis.)

(2) Cell Processes• All living systems are made of atoms.
• All living things contain at least the following biological elements:Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Sulfur
• All cellular processes are driven by energy exchange and the movement and reacting of different molecules.

(3) Homeostasis• Involuntary processes and reactions are in place to
maintain Homeostasis within cells.
• Homeostasis = Internal stability / balance.

(4) Cell Specialization• When cells are “specialized” this means that they
have a unique shape and a unique function.
• In our bodies we have many specialized cells, which each complete a specific function, to maintain overall homeostasis.

(5) Human Organs• Humans have a lot of different organs to keep us
living and healthy.
• Some Main Internal Organs:– Brain– Heart– Lungs– Liver– Stomach– Small and Large Intestine– Kidneys

(6) Organ Functions• Brain: Controls all other organ systems and allows
us to respond.
• Heart: Pumps and circulates blood.
• Lungs: Bring in oxygen gas, and get rid of carbon dioxide gas.
• Liver: Detoxifies chemicals and breaks down drugs in blood.

Organ Functions Continued• Stomach: Breaks down food into molecular
components.
• Small Intestine: Finish breaking down food and absorb useful nutrients.
• Large Intestine: Absorb water, and excrete food waste.
• Kidneys: Filter blood and maintain blood homeostasis.
