Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In multicellular organisms, cells differentiate and specialize to perform a specific function, and these cells are grouped together in an ordered manner to form a tissue. These tissues are classified into four categories based on their function namely: muscle tissue, epithelial tissue, connective tissue and nervous tissue. These tissues combine together to form organs, and organs combine to form organ systems
