Biosphere, ecosystems, communities, population, organisms, organ and organ systems, tissues, cells, organelles, molecules. Second process is flow of energy from sunlight to producers to consumers. Chromosomes made of deoxyribonucleic acid, or dna. Entire library of genetic instructions that an organism inherits. Combination of components can form a more complex organization. Properties that emerge in each step upward in the hierarchy of biological order. Due to arrangement and interactions of parts as complexity increases. Reducing complex systems to simpler components that are more manageable to study. Model dynamic behavior of whole biological systems. Three key research developments to bring systems biology within reach: Extracting useful biological information from large data sets. Accumulation of an end product of a process slows that process. Species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain. (dumb kings play chess on funny green seats) Members which absorb nutrients after decomposing organic material.
