- Describe the levels of organization of the body.
- Describe the mechanisms of support and movement of the body.
- Discuss the role and function of body systems.
- how the knowledge of metabolism, ATP production, food compounds as energy sources, etc. will help you in the field of dental hygiene.
Homework Answers
1. The various levels of organization of the body are :
a) cells : cells are the fundamental unit of life. They perform internal respiration and are the sites that ultimately provide energy to the proper functioning of the body.
b) tissues : tissues are a group of cells and they have a definite function throughout the body. For example : nerve tissue conducts impulses and muscle tissue helps in movement.
c) organs : organs are a group of different kinds of tissue that perform a certain function. For example: stomach is an organ and is involved in digestion.
d) organ system : this is a group of organs forming a complete system that performs a function. For example : digestive system has stomach, pancreas, etc. which are different organs.
e) organism: organism is the group of all the organ systems and is an individual entity. A man or a dog is an organism.

The proper cellular ATP levels are critical for almost all cell function (-1mM in the cytoplasm). In this problem set you will propose different mechanisms how a cell could regulate and maintain this ATP level. Your proposed mechanisms don't have to exist (do not read up online about the way cells regulate ATP levels!). But the mechanisms should be plausible and based on what you learned in...
