Answer:

all levels of organisation within an organism are interdependent

Step-by-step explanation:

  • An organism has different levels of organization within itself that, the levels are s follows: cell ----> tissues----> organs----> organ systems and there are further different organ systems present within an organism.
  • Even though the organisms have a different level of organization, still there is an interdependence amongst these levels and all these different levels have to coordinate and work together so that the body can function normally.
  • Therefore, a chemical imbalance in the body which may occur due to the nervous/endocrine system can cause the heart to stop pumping blood which is, in turn, a part of the cardiovascular system and this may further affect other tissues and organs and these may stop functioning. Thus this clearly shows how different levels coordinate and work to carry on norma functioning of the body.
