| Macromolecules | The marcomolecule nucleic acid makes up or DNA. The macromolecule carbohydrates are essential to organisms for energy. |
| Organelles | The organelle nucleus control all the function of the cell. The organelle mitochondria gets rid of carbon dioxide that plants use to make oxygen. |
| Cell | The cell's function is essential for the organism to live. The flu virus kills cells to spread the virus in the organism, and they spread it to other organisms. |
| Prokaryotes | The flu virus spreads in schools every year. The strep virus is a prokaryote which makes an organism ill. |

| Organs | The stomach makes sure food gets digested properly. Organs can be donated for other in the world. |
| Organ system | The respiratory system pumps blood throughout the body in the organism. The respiratory system emits carbon dioxide which plants use to produce oxygen. |
| Organism | Fungi depend on decomposed organisms for food The bacteria in our small intestine are seperate organisms. |
| Population | Humans interact with other humans in their homes. Humans interact with humans in cities and in biological environments. |
| Community | Humans interact with their pet dogs in their homes. Humans interact with the bugs in the wild. |
| Ecosystem | In homes, humans interact with their pets by giving them water and food to eat. In underwater biomes, fish interact with algae and the water. |
| Biosphere | Humans are part of the biosphere, by emiting carbon dioxide. All areas of life on Earth are part of the biosphere. |
