Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the hierarchy of biological organization, which is a system used to classify the complexity of life from smallest to largest levels.
Step 2: Recall the sequence of biological organization: cell → tissue → organ → organ system → organism.
Step 3: Identify the level directly above 'organ' in the hierarchy. An organ is a group of tissues working together to perform a specific function.
Step 4: Recognize that an 'organ system' is composed of multiple organs working together to perform a broader function, such as the digestive system or respiratory system.
Step 5: Confirm that the correct answer is 'organ system,' as it is the next level of organization above 'organ' in the hierarchy.
