TISSUES 1) DEFINITION: A group of cells that are similar in structure and work together to achieve a specific function is called a tissue. 2) IMPORTANCE IN MULTICELLULAR ORGANISMS a) Multicellular organisms are complex. Thus, they show division of labour. b) A tissue is arranged and designed to give the highest possible efficiency of function. 3) DIFFERENCE IN PLANTS AND ANIMALS: There are differences in plants and animals that also bring about a change their tissues. Criteria PLANTS ANIMALS Movement They remain stationary. They move for breeding, nutrition etc. Tisssue Function The tissues are supportive in The tissues are living and function and provide structural require more energy to strength. They are mostly dead. function. Pattern of growth The pattern of growth in plants The pattern of growth in is limited to certain regions. animals is uniform throughout the body. Structural organisation The structural organization of The structural organization of organs and organ systems is not organs and organ systems is very complex. very very complex. Form of existence Plants have sedentary Animals show active existence. locomotion.. 4) TYPES: Based on dividing capacity a) Plant Tissues b) Animal Tissues 5) Plant Tissues a) Meristematic Tissue i) Structure (1) Similar in structure, have thin cell walls.
