| A | B |
|---|
| multicellular | made of many cells; grow by making more cells |
| multicellular benefits | larger size=fewer predators; longer life=life doesn't depend on any one cell; specialization=cells have different jobs |
| tissue | group of cells working together to perform a job |
| kinds of animal tissue | nerve=carry messages; muscle=movement; connective=hold things together; protective=safety |
| kinds of plant tissue | transport=moves food & water; protective=safety; ground=photosynthesis takes place |
| organs | structures made up of two or more tissues working together to do a job |
| animal organs | heart, stomach, intestines, brain, lungs, etc. |
| plant organs | leaves, stems, roots, etc. |
| organ system | a group of organs working together to perform a job |
| animal organ systems | digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, circulatory, muscular, skeletal, nervous, etc. |
| plant organ systems | leaf, root, stem, etc. |
| organism | anything that can perform life processes (move, reproduce, are sensitive, need nutrition, excrete, respire, & grow) by itself |
| unicellular | a single celled organism |
| unicellular organisms | prokaryotes, fungi, protists |
| structure | the arrangement of parts in an organism (shape & materials) |
| function | the job the part does |
| reasons to study cells | find new treatment/cures for diseases; better recovery from injuries; improved diets; bigger stronger plants for more food; drought/disease resistant plants |
