Cellular Organization & Homeostasis
Cellular Organization Foldable
1. On an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper held vertically (any color or kind you want), make lines across at the following measurements: 1/2", 1 3/4", 3 1/2", 5 3/4", and 8". The spaces between each line will get larger and larger as you move down the page, just like the levels of organization in living things get larger and larger!
2. Fold the paper in half lengthwise (or vertically... or hot dog). Open it back up.
3. Cut from the left side of the paper along each line to the center point only. (Do NOT cut all the way across the page! ) The left side of your paper now has flaps or tabs.
4. Refold the paper in half lengthwise (along your fold from step 2). And on the front, so the fold is on the left and the tabs open on the right, label each individual tab with the following: Organization of Life, Cells, Tissues, Organs, Organ Systems, Organism. Color, decorate, etc. - See picture below, left.
5. Open each tab of your foldable. On the left side (the back side of the tab) create a drawing to represent that level of organization. On the right side (the side that was not cut) define/describe each level and include at least one example. Color, decorate, etc. - See picture below, right.

Homeostasis Analogy:
Draw an analogy for one of the four things the body needs to do to maintain homeostasis. Under your drawing, write a sentence or two explaining how your analogy is like what the body does.
For example... Think about: What are the four things your body does to maintain homeostasis? Is there anything around you that does something similar? For example - what gets rid of wastes in your home? What gets rid of "bad guys" in a video game????

Can you maintain homeostasis as well as your body does? Body Control Center
