What living systems have distinct structures and sets of functions? Be sure to refer to class notes for All of the listed answers have distinct structures and sets of functions

organisms

tissue

cells

Cells.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the structural, fundamental, biological and functional unit of life. Cells are found in all living organisms because they are the basic unit of life.

Generally, cells have the ability to independently replicate themselves. These cells can be compared to the kind of structures found in a business or factory, where you have different workers performing different functions.

In a cell, the "workers" that perform various functions or tasks for the survival of the living organism are referred to as organelles.

Factory worker = Cell organelle.

1. Chief executive officer = Nucleus.

2. Power house = Mitochondrion.

3. Maintenance team = Lysosomes.

4. Functional managers = Chromosomes.

5. Assembly line workers = Ribosomes.

6. Assembly line = Endoplasmic Reticulum.

7. Security and support = Cytoskeleton.

8. Drivers or messengers = Vesicles.

9. Packaging unit = Golgi apparatus.

10. Gate man/procurement unit = Cell membrane.

Hence, cells are living systems that have distinct structures and sets of functions.
