About This Chapter
Tissues in Action explores how cells work together to form tissues and perform specialised functions in living organisms. The chapter builds on the ideas about cells introduced in Chapter 2 and helps students understand how groups of specialised cells are organised to carry out particular functions.
Understanding tissues helps students connect the organisation of cells with the functioning of larger parts of living organisms. These concepts provide an important foundation for understanding how plants and animals are organised.
