Solution

Tissue System:

  1. Tissue is a biological organizing level in biology that lies between cells and an entire organ.
  2. Various tissues are functionally grouped together to form organs.
  3. The epidermis, ground tissue, and vascular tissue are the three major tissue systems used to classify tissues in plant anatomy.
    1. Epidermis tissue: Cells that make up the epidermis, or outer layer, of leaves and immature plant bodies.
    2. Vascular tissue: The xylem and phloem make up the majority of vascular tissue. These move nutrients and liquids throughout the body.
    3. Ground tissue: Compared to other tissues, ground tissue is less differentiated. Through photosynthesis, ground tissue produces nutrients and stores reserve nutrients.
  4. Animal cells that have been brought together make up the tissues of animals.
  5. Animals have four different types of tissues: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous.
  6. The epithelium is a type of body tissue that covers all of the internal and exterior body surfaces, lines hollow organs and body cavities, and makes up the majority of glandular tissue.
  7. In addition to helping to transport nutrients and other substances between tissues and organs, connective tissue also helps to store fat and mend damaged tissue.
  8. Muscle cells have the unusual ability to shorten or contract, which results in the movement of the physiological parts.
  9. The tissue is densely packed with cells and has many blood channels.
  10. Nerves, the spinal cord, and the brain all include nervous tissue.
