Cell

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Biological organization follows a hierarchy starting from atoms and molecules to the biosphere. Atoms and molecules are non-living chemical components. Organelles are sub-cellular structures that perform specific functions but cannot exist independently as a living unit. The $Cell$ is the fundamental structural and functional unit of life. It is the smallest level of organization that exhibits all the characteristics of a living organism, such as metabolism, growth, and reproduction. Therefore, the $Cell$ is the first level of biological organization that is considered a living entity.
