Question

write 5 questions (any level) that can be answered by the notes. the organization of living things organism - anything that can perform life processes by itself. two types of organisms: unicellular and multicellular. unicellular - consisting of one cell. performs all necessary functions to stay alive. needs fewer resources. can live in harsher conditions. all prokaryotes, (bacteria and archaea) are unicellular. some eukaryotes, (yeast, protists, some algae) are unicellular. if the cell dies, the organism dies. multicellular - made of many cells. starts as a single cell, then develops into many. cells become differentiated, to do different jobs. larger size, grow by making more cells. longer life, if a cell dies, the organism can still live. specialization of cells makes the organism more efficient. cells rely on each other to work together and do their jobs. four levels of organization: cell, tissues, organs, organ systems. function - the activity that a cell performs, its job, what it does. structure - the arrangement of parts in an organism, the shape and the material it is made out of, how it is put together. 1) cells working together to perform a common function make tissues (heart (cardiac) cells make heart (cardiac) tissues). 2) tissues working together to perform a common function make organs (heart tissues make the heart). 3) organs working together to perform a common function make organ systems (the heart is part of the cardiovascular system). 4) organ systems work together to function for an organism. (the cardiovascular system works with other systems in the body to keep the organism alive.)

Explanation:

Based on the notes about the organization of living things, we can formulate questions related to the concepts presented such as types of organisms, levels of organization, and relationships between cells - tissues - organs - organ - systems.

Answer:

1. What are the two main types of organisms based on cell - number?
2. Why can unicellular organisms live in harsher conditions compared to some multicellular ones?
3. What happens to a unicellular organism if its single cell dies?
4. How do cells in a multicellular organism become differentiated?
5. What is the relationship between tissues and organs in the levels of organization of living things?
