Well lets think... hmm what is bigger than an organism well unless the universe is one vast animal of some sort than i would go with universe, suns, gas giant planets such as Jupiter, Pluto would even work because the blue whale (largest animal on earth) is not quite the size of a former planet (currently dwarf planet).
On the other hand, if you're speaking in terms of living systems, then theres is no definitive answer agreed upon yet. The systems go organelles which make up cells, cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems, and organ systems make up organisms. All of that is just as true for ants as it is whales as it is humans and every living thing you have ever seen, unless you spend a lot of time around singles cell organisms. In this context, a society is larger than an organism, because organisms make up societies.
It has been proposed that societies are truely better refered to as societal organisms, not meaning an organism that is social, but rather looking at society as a living organic system rather than an institution we put in place. This idea of organisms made of organisms has also been called a superorganism, with ants being the best known idea of a superorganism, and the biosphere or the earth being a grand scale idea, however controversial still. Though individual organisms are clearly seperate one another they are still truely part of the same organic systems. This could be applied to human societies as easily as ant colonies, but for now remains just a proposed theory as to not further dissolve the boundaries of where the scale of life truely begins and ends.
What else can I help you with?
Is an organ system bigger than an organism?
organ is bigger
Is a tissue bigger than a organism?
To answer this question as it is written: not necessarily. An organism (bacterium) can be smaller than tissue (the cartilage in my ears). By definition, an organism is more COMPLEX than a tissue, but not necessarily bigger.
Is an organ bigger than a piano?
Not necessarily. Organs are not always bigger than tissues, they are just more complex. An organ can be as small as a lymph node, but a tissue may be as big as a muscle. So, the more complex it is, being made of more than one type of tissue classifies it as an organ, whereas the similarity of all the cells being the same categorizes it as a tissue. Organs are things like hearts, lung, livers, etc. Tissues are small/tiny pieces of animal or plants containing similar cells.
What is bigger an organism or a universe?
A universe is bigger than an organism.
Can an organ be part of more than one organism?
An organ can be part of more than one organism. Also I like ninja monkeys.
What is more complex organism or organ system?
An organ system is more complex than an organism. An organism is a single living being made up of various organ systems working together to maintain life. Organ systems consist of multiple organs and tissues that have specialized functions and work together to support the overall function of the organism.
Is a organ more complex than a organ system?
The level of organization more complex than a system is the organism. The organism is made up of multiple organ systems working together.
Are organisms bigger than organs?
Yes. Organ systems are bigger than an organ because an organ system contains multiple organs as once again it is a whole system of organs than just 1 organ. I hope this helps.
Are organ systems bigger than organs?
Yes, organ systems are made up of multiple organs that work together to perform specific functions in the body. Therefore, organ systems are usually bigger in size and complexity compared to individual organs.
What are the levels of organization that are bigger than organisms?
organ system
Is organ bigger than a plant?
crazy stupid question
Is an organism smaller than a organ?
A cell is much smaller than an organ. Organs are made up of many cells and tissues.
