What do different types of tissues form in the body?
Different types of tissues form organs.
Can you name some organs in the human body?
Some organs include the heart, brain, lungs, liver, and eyes.
What is the relationship between tissues and organs?
Different tissues work together to form organs, each with a specific function.
How are organs organized in the body?
Organs are organized into systems.
What is an example of an organ system in the body?
