Quiz Description

In this quiz, you will find a lot of interesting and fascinating quizzes like these specialized cells, tissues, and organs quizzes. Man (you) has a body, which functions in ways you can not begin to comprehend, this quiz helps you to understand the basic units that make up the human body and how they are all placed.

The whole body is made up of cells, which make up tissues, and these tissues in turn make up the organs. These organs all combined now form a system. Know that;

  • Cells are the basic, smallest and functional unit of all living organisms be it plants or animals like plants and animal cells, and red blood cells.
  • Tissues are a group of similar structural cells aimed at carrying out particular functions example the connective tissue
  • Organs are simply a collection of tissues for example the liver 

Our body requires the function of all these in order to be alive, therefore knowledge of this helps us understand their functions.  For example, cells help in absorption in the intestine and also helps in the gaseous exchange between the capillaries and the alveoli of the lungs.
