- Grow and develop

- Respond to environment

- Reproduce

- Maintain homeostasis

- Use energy

Levels of Organization

- Cell -> Tissue -> Organ -> Organ System -> Organism

Cell Theory

- All living things are made of cells


- Cells are the basic units of life

- All cells come from pre-existing cells

Types of Cells
