Front State the 4 main categories of tissues in animals.
Back Main tissues in animals:
  • Nervous tissue - support transmission of el. impulses
  • Epithelial tissue - cover body surfaces, internal and external
  • Muscle tissue adapted to contract
  • Connective tissue - adapted to hold tissues together/as a transport medium
