○ organisms are made up of tissues to cells to atoms to organs to organ systems.
common cell types

Explanation:

The hierarchical organization of biological organisms from largest to smallest (organism to smaller units) follows the order: whole organisms are broken down into organ systems, which are made of organs, organs are composed of tissues, tissues are made of cells, and cells are built from atoms. This matches the correct sequence of decreasing size/complexity.

Answer:

Organisms are made up of organ systems to organs to tissues to cells to atoms.
