tissues - CORRECT ANSWERS composed of cells, and if relating this to nervous tissue it has

organ system - CORRECT ANSWERS composed of multiple organs, for example, the nervous
system is composed of all the organs in the nervous system, which is responsible for all
activities in the nervous system


epithelial tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS composed of epithelial cells aligned in sheets and
connected to one another. this tissue can be found lining the outer surfaces of all organs and
blood vessels, in the mouth, and on the surfaces of humans. this tissue works to absorb,
secrete, protect, and sense for us.


connective tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS supports and connects other tissue types in the body.
different types of connective tissue work to hold organs in place, attach muscle to bones, link
bones with joints, or enable other tissues (like lungs) to stretch. it is found attached to and in
between other tissues types in the body.


nervous tissue - CORRECT ANSWERS nerves, the spinal cord, and the brain are composed of
nervous tissues. this tissue, made up of specialized cells called neurons, works to receive,
interpret, and respond to signals.

bones; voluntary


smooth muscle - CORRECT ANSWERS found in the walls of internal organs; involuntary


cardiac muscle - CORRECT ANSWERS found in the walls of the heart. this tissue provides the
ability to contract; involuntary


genome - CORRECT ANSWERS complete sets of genes within an organism, and genes are made
up of blood


blood is made up of 4 different bases which can create a variety. since genomes are genes,
genes are responsible for determining the cell structure and function by directing synthesis of
proteins and coding RNA molecules. - CORRECT ANSWERS how does a single genome code for
so many types of tissues?


concussion - CORRECT ANSWERS an injury to the head that causes the brain to quickly move
back and forth, hitting the inside of the skull.


they are stretched, sheared, or transected (cut into pieces). when an individual has multiple
severe concussions over their lifetime, a protein called tau forms clumps in the brain. these
proteins slowly spread throughout the brain and kill brain cells. - CORRECT ANSWERS what
happens to the neurons during a concussion?


vacant stares, disorientation, inability to focus, memory impairment, slurred speech, and
