LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION OF LIVING THINGS

• Levels of organization are structures in nature, usually defined by part-whole relationships, with things at higher levels being composed of things at the next lower level.

• The atom is the smallest and most fundamental unit of matter. It consists of a nucleus surrounded by electrons.
