At the cafeteria's eat-all-you-can salad bar, Ken was reading her histology book. Until her buddy dropped down a bowl of gelatin salad, he was having difficulties imagining tissues. It included grapes, shredded carrots, and coconut in it and was pale pink. Ken now comprehended connective tissue as the salad quivered in the dish. Relate the salad's structure to the connective tissue's structure.
A hypothetical organ has the following functional requirements : (1) the ability to resist surface abrasion and mechanical stresses;(2) the ability to contract involuntarily when stimulated by cells of the nervous system; and (3) the ability to resist tension in many different planes of force. The organ needs one tissue to carry out each of these requirements, and it also needs one tissue to " glue" all other tissues together, and one tissue to stimulate the contracting cells. What are the five tissues that will make up this hypothetical organ ? Justify your choices .
