Levels of organization in the body Five boxes connected by arrows showing that cells build tissues, tissues build organs, organs build organ systems, and organ systems build the whole organism. Small to large: how the body is built Cells basic unit Tissues like cells Organs heart, lung... Organ systems Organism you! Each level is made of the one before it.
