Cell, tissue, organ
In general, organs are made up of tissue, and tissue is made up of cells. However, a cell is not necessarily part of tissue, and tissue is not necessarily part of a named organ.

Among the solid organs, there is one category, neural, that is tree-structured (see: Nervous system; neural tree).
