1. Fill in the five levels of human body organization from smallest to largest.

Cells Tissue Organs Organ Systems Organism

2. Place the five examples below in order from largest to smallest:


Stomach, Epithelial Tissue, You, Digestive System, Parietal cells

You Digestive System Stomach Epithelial Parietal


Tissue Cells

3. Give an example of how your body would maintain homeostasis in the following situations:
a. You have gotten cold while sledding and playing in the snow in January
Your body will shiver to warm your body temperature up

b. You are exercising by cross-country skilling and need more oxygen for your muscles.
Your breathing rate will get faster to bring in more oxygen AND your heart will pump
faster/harder to move more blood carrying oxygen to your body

c. You ate a lot of snow and it melted and turned into water in your excretory system.
The excess water will be filtered from your blood by your kidneys and then it will
move to your bladder before leaving the body when you go tinkle
Complete the graphic organizer by defining each level of human body organization in the center shape and giving
specific examples at each level in the shapes off the center. For the types of tissue, give the function of each type. For
the examples of organs and organ system, list the names.

Cell:
The basic unit
of structure and
function in
living things

Muscle Tissue – makes Connective Tissue –


the body move by Tissue: support , connects & fills
contracting and relaxing body parts
A group of similar cells
that perform the same
function
Nervous Tissue – carries
Epithelial Tissue – covers
the electrical messages
the surfaces of the body,
between the brain & body
both inside and out

Brain Heart
Organ:
A more complex group of
Stomach different types of tissue Skin
working together to perform a
specific job
Lungs Kidney
Ear, Eye, AND MANY, MANY OTHERS!!!

Integumentary Excretory

Muscular Respiratory
Organ System:
A group of organs working
Skeletal Circulatory
together to perform a major
function
