Cells, Organs & Tissues, TOO-YT

Even if you feel you have nothing in common with a stinkbug or a ficus, you're guaranteed to share one crucial aspect of life with these beings: you are all made up of cells, the fundamental molecules of life, of which all living things are composed. As an individual unit, the cell is capable of metabolizing its own nutrients, synthesizing many types of molecules, providing its own energy, and replicating itself. In a multicellular organism, cooperative assemblies of similar cells form tissues, and a cooperation between tissues in turn forms organs, which carry out the functions necessary to sustain the life of an organism.
