Levels of Organization
Larger Size
Longer Life
Specialization
Unicellular Organisms
100
This is the arrangement of parts in an organism. (page 130)
What is structure?
100
Multicellular organisms are typically larger than unicellular organisms because they have more of these. (page 129)
What are small cells?
100
This is a characteristic of multicellular organisms that allows them to spend more time on Earth. (page 129)
What is a longer life?
100
Each type of cells has this. (page 129)
What is a particular job?
100
Unlike a multicellular organism, this kind of organism will die if it loses a cell.
What is unicellular organism?
200
This is a group of cells that works together to perform a specific job. (page 131)
What is tissue?
200
Multicellular organisms are large because they have many small cells, *NOT* because their cells are this. (page 129)
What is larger?
200
The longer an organism is on Earth, the better chance it has of doing this and making copies of itself.
What is reproducing?
200
This is the special, normal, or proper activity of an organ or part. It is WHAT something does. (page 129, page 130)
What is function?
200
Unicellular organisms only have one of these.
What is a cell?
300
This is a structure that is made up of two or more tissues. (page 131)
What is an organ?
300
This advantage of multicellular organisms allows them to avoid getting eaten by many other things. (page 129)
What is larger size?
300
Multicellular organisms have many cells to spare, so if THIS happens to them they do not die. (page 129)
What is losing a cell? (Will also accept "cell death")
300
This kind of cell performs a specific function. (page 130)
What is specialized?
300
This prefix means one, and can be seen in such words as unicorn, unified, unity, and union.
What is "uni"?
400
These are the four levels of organization for a multicellular organism. They are listed from smallest to largest. (page 130, 130-132).
What are cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems?
400
Animals that are larger would find it easier to avoid having this happen to them. (page 129)
What is "being eaten by larger predators"?
400
What happens if a multicellular organism loses one cell? (page 129)
What is continuing to live?
400
This makes makes organisms more like an assembly line at a factory. Each part of the organism can do its job much faster, and produce more things in less time. (page 129)
What is specialization?
400
Multicellular organisms are more efficient that Unicellular organisms because they have this characteristic.
What is larger size? or What is longer life? or What is specilization?
500
Any living thing that can carry out life processes independently is called this. (page 129)
What is an organism?
500
Large organisms can overpower small organisms and eat them. The larger an organism, the more ______ it has to eat. (page 129)
What is prey?
500
If Milan slaps her arm, she may kill hundreds of cells. This is why SHE doesn't die.
Why does Milan have CELLS to SPARE?
500
This organ's specialized job is to keep your blood circulating throughout your body. (Not in book!!)
What is the heart?
500
Examples of this unicellular organism include bacteria and archaea.
What are prokaryotes?
