The human nervous system is organized into several hierarchical levels: the central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS), comprising all the nerves outside the CNS. Within the CNS, there are various structures and regions, such as the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, and brainstem, each responsible for specific functions. The PNS is further divided into the somatic and autonomic nervous systems, which control voluntary and involuntary actions, respectively. This intricate organization allows for complex processing and integration of sensory information, motor control, and homeostasis.
No, the organ is not the highest level of organization in the human body. The organ systems, which are made up of multiple organs working together, represent the highest level of organization in the human body. Examples of organ systems include the nervous system, respiratory system, and digestive system.
organism describes the entire individual, a human, just like it would describe a fish. However, "in" the human body, one would find SYSTEMS such as the digestive and nervous systems.
The levels of organization in the human body in descending order are: organism level (whole human body), organ systems level (such as the cardiovascular system), organ level (heart), tissue level (cardiac muscle tissue), cellular level (cardiac muscle cell), and molecular level (molecules within the cell).

The lowest level is the cell.
The autonomic nervous system does. It works at the level of the spinal cord.
organ
The fourth level of cell organization is an organ system. The levels of organization are: Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ system.
Chemical Level(atoms, molecules), Cellular Level(smooth muscle cell), Tissue Level(smooth muscle tissue), Organ Level(stomach), System Level(digestive system), and Organism Level.
The function of the liver is digestive; it does the next level of processing of food, after it has been digested by the alimentary canal.
Circulatory system
cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, brainstem and basal nuclei
