SPM Biology 2 Cell Biology & Organization Part 5 Levels of Organization in Multicellular Organisms

Multicellular organisms - Living things with multiple or many cells organized together (eg. animals, plants)


Cell specialization in multicellular organism

  • Cell changes in structure or function in order to carry out a specific function
  • Most of them rely on cooperation of other cells to survive.

Notes for plants: 

  • Parenchyma tissue - to store starch, protein and water.
  • Collenchyma tissue - giving support to young, non-woody stems.
  • Sclerenchyma tissue - giving support to mature parts of the plant.

  • Vascular tissue / bundle = xylem tissue + phloem tissue
  • Xylem tissue - transport water and mineral salts from the roots to other parts of the plant,
  • Phloem tissue - transport organic matters (sucrose etc.) from the leaves to all parts of the plant.
