1) Which is the correct sequence for levels of biological organization within a
multicellular organism?
A) atom - molecule - organelle - cell - tissue
B) molecule - atom - organelle - tissue - cell
C) cell - organelle - atom - tissue - molecule
D) organelle - molecule - atom - tissue - cell
E) atom - organelle - molecule - cell - tissue
Answer: A
Explanation: All living things, no matter how different, are made of cells, with multicellular
organisms made up of many cells. Please see section 1.1 for more information.

3) Organisms that extract energy from nonliving environmental resources are called
A) heterotrophs.
B) decomposers.
C) parasites.
D) consumers.
E) producers.
Answer: E
Explanation: Producers are the first, and usually most populous level in an ecosystem's passing
of energy and resources from organism to organism. Please see section 1.1 for more information.
