Number Three |
What is a level of organization?
If you are looking at an organism with a microscope your are at a cellular level.
If you are dissecting a large mammal, you are now looking at structures made of cells, that combine to tissues which make organs and interact with systems. The higher the level of organization the more interactions can occur.
Imagine..you are in a house, that house is in a neighborhood, that neighborhood is in a city, and the city in in a province. You scale of perception is increasing with the change in level of organizations
