What is the primary method of cell communication?

Back

Chemical signals are the primary method of cell communication.

Front

What type of organisms are bacteria classified as?

Bacteria are classified as prokaryotes.

Front

Arrange the following from most to least complex: organism, organ system, organ, tissue, cell.

Back

The correct order is: organisms → organ system → organ → tissue → cell.

Front

What is a group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function called?

Back

A group of similar cells that work together is called tissue.

Front

How are cells specialized and interdependent?

Back

Front

What is homeostasis?

Back

Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions.

Front

What role do chemical signals play in the body?

Back

Chemical signals facilitate communication between cells, allowing them to coordinate their functions.

Front

What distinguishes prokaryotic cells from eukaryotic cells?

Back

Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have both.

Front

What is the function of tissues in multicellular organisms?

Back

Tissues perform specific functions and work together to form organs.

Front

What is the relationship between cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems?

Back

Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, and organs make up organ systems.
