Could someone please arrange these biological terms in order of size (smallest to largest) :
Organ,Cell,Organism,Organelle,Tissue,System
Many Thanks, REP Available!
Missus is doing some extra science work and hasnt got a book so i thought i would ask you very clever people.
More questions to come, me thinks lol.

Not clever when it comes to biology!!
you not tried searching the internet?
might be an academic journal on the subject?

I have never heard of organelle!!
Id imagine system would be the biggest, then organ...cell would be smallest i think, then tissue.
complete guess by the way lol.

hmm
only one im not sure on is organelle.. im pretty sure its before organ, system is a combonation of organs, so thats after organ. and an organism is the whole thing i think (human is an organism)

according to Wikipedia an organelle is 'a specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own lipid membrane.'
so its smaller than a cell.

Can Mr_Willy be 100% sure though, if wikepedia says different?
i know wikepedia is not the law, and if you had it in your reference list it would be laughed at...but still...

There goes my 15 year old jokes... anyhow. My GCSE in Biology led me to believe it's:
Cell
Tissue
Organelle
Organ
System
Organism
Have no idea wtf an organelle is, remove that and I know that's the right order lol.

thats my guess. been readin that wiki page and an organelle is a part of whats inside a cell. e.g the nucleus

It's:
Organelle
Cell
Tissue
Organ
System
Organism
They are all made up of each other, e.g Cell is made up of organelle, Tissue is made up of Cells, Organ is made up of tissue etc
