Your body is made up of trillions of cells and those cells work together. Cells working together to perform a certain function form a tissue.

How do cells work together?

An organ is several kinds of tissue working together for the same function. Your skin is an organ- it's made of multiple layers of epithelial tissue. Your heart is an organ- made up of epithelial, muscle, nervous, and connective tissues.

Cells, tissues, organs,

and the digestive system

Human Digestive System

Your body is covered and lined with epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue is your skin. It also lines your internal organs.

Most of your body mass is covered in muscle tissue. When you move, muscle tissue contracts and relaxes to move your skeleton.

The bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments of your skeleton are made up of connective tissue.

The digestive system helps the body get the nutrients it needs from food. First, chemicals break food down into nutrients. then, nutrients are moved into the blood. Blood moves the nutrients to each of the body's cells.

Nervous tissue sends messages to your body. Nervous tissue is found in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
