Imagine that you discovered an alien life form (very similar to humans) that didn't have one of the types of tissues (you choose which one that alien doesn't have). Explain how the functioning of that alien would be different from a human (that has all four types of tissues). Writing an answer to a constructed response question should contain the following parts: 1. Claim- this is your answer to the question (written in a complete sentence, using part of the question re-written as part of your answer). 2. Evidence. In the second part of your answer, you write details (from the lesson, class notes etc.) that support your answer. 3. Reasoning- this is a summary statement tying the evidence to your answer (to your claim). Why is what you wrote true?arrow_forward
