A group of tissues working together; example are your lungs, heart, liver | Organs |
Organs that have a particular function create | Systems |
Provides the external boundary for a cell | cell membrane |
Characteristics of living things | Grow and develop, reproduce, respond to their environment, use energy, made up of cells |
Cell theory | Living things are made of cells; nonliving things are not made up of cells. Cells can function as individual organisms or as the smallest units in a larger organisms |
