    To control and coordinate the body's functions
  • What is the organ level in physiological function?
    It combines different tissues for specific tasks
  • What would happen without the organ level in the body?
    The body would not function as a unified whole
  • What do organs form when they integrate and cooperate?
    Organ systems
  • What are the main organ systems of the body?
    Nervous, Respiratory, Circulatory, Endocrine, Digestive, Excretory
  • What is the significance of the organ level of organization in the body?
    • Complex structures formed by tissues
    • Perform specific functions for body operation
    • Essential for maintaining homeostasis

    • Components: Stomach, intestines
    • Key Functions: Food processing
  • How do organ systems form in the body?
    They form when specialized tissues combine
