The smallest item in the list would be organelles. Organelles are tiny structures within a cell, that help it to function. Example of organelles are-- nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane to name a few. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things, therefore, cells would have to be placed second. They are microscopic. A group of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function, is known as a tissue. Therefore, tissue is next largest. Examples of tissues include, muscle tissue, epithelial tissue, adipose tissue. When different types of tissues work together to perform a function in the body, this group of tissues forms an organ. An example of an organ is the heart. Inside the heart are many types of tissue-- cardiac muscle,nerve, blood, connective, etc. The job it performs is to pump blood. When various organs work together to perform a specific function in the body, this makes up a system. An example is the circulatory system. In this system are many organs that work together. Arteries, veins, capillaries and heart are all part of the circulatory system. Its job is to circulate blood containing nutrients and oxygen to cells and to pick up cellular wastes. All the systems of the body comprise the organism. An organism is a living thing. It can be as tiny as a microbe, or a complex as a human. When referring to a multicellular organism, the correct order from smallest to largest is-- organelle, cell, tissue, organ, system, organism
An enzyme is an organic catalyst.
<h3>
What is an enzyme?</h3>
Enzymes are proteins that help speed up metabolism or the chemical reactions in our bodies.
They build some substances and break others down.
All living things have enzymes. Our bodies naturally produce enzymes.
But enzymes are also in manufactured products and food.
Examples of specific enzymes:
Amylase: In the saliva, amylase helps change starches into sugars.
Maltase: This also occurs in the saliva, and breaks the sugar maltose into glucose.
Trypsin: These enzymes break proteins down into amino acids in the small intestine.

The cell wall because of the fact it is present in the plant cell and not in the animal cell
Answer:
4. According to what is observed in the diagram, the maltose (substrate) binds to the maltase (enzyme) to obtain glucose molecules (product), in a process of <u>hydrolysis</u> of the maltose.
5. Three factors that can affect intestinal maltose activity - slowing it down or stopping it - are temperature, pH and substrate depletion.
Explanation:
4. Enzymes, such as maltase, have the function of making a reaction faster and decreasing the activation energy. <u>Maltase is responsible for breaking down a maltose molecule, a dimer, into two glucose monomers</u>, which is a hydrolysis reaction of the bonds that hold glucose molecules together.
5. There are several factors that can cause the decrease or cessation of the activity of an enzyme. <u>Enzymes are activated when substrate is available and work best under ideal temperature and pH conditions</u>. When there are alterations of these factors, the enzyme will reduce or stop the reaction in which it intervenes.
- <em><u>pH</u></em><em>: when the pH increases or decreases it produces a decrease in the speed of reaction that catalyzes an enzyme. Very high or low pH levels can denature the enzyme and make the expected reaction not occur.
</em>
- <em><u>Temperature</u></em><em>: like pH, changes in temperature can slow or stop maltase activity.
</em>
- <em><u>Substrate availability</u></em><em>: It is a fact that when the specific substrate of an enzyme becomes depleted, the rate of reaction slows down, stopping when no substrate is available.</em>
