Structural Hierarchy of the Human Body

This document discusses the structural organization of the human body from the chemical to organismal levels. At the chemical level, the basic building blocks are atoms that combine to form molecules like water, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. These macromolecules then form cell organelles like the nucleus and mitochondria to create cells. Cells that are similar, like muscle or nerve cells, group together to form tissues. Different tissues combine to create organs with specialized functions, like the skin, stomach or kidneys. Organs work together in organ systems, like the kidneys filtering waste in the urinary system. Finally, at the organismal level, trillions of cells come together to form the
