How is a tissue different from an organ?

Question

Thanks everyone! This question was for my sons home work, we couldn't find the answer anywhere in his book!

Answer 1

An organ can have several different types of tissue.

Answer 2

an organ is a group of tissues, and tissue is a group of cells. organs have more complex jobs and have a fundementally complexer system...

Answer 3

A tissue is a collection of cells with similar functions. A muscle tissue is formed by many muscle fibres/cells arranged in an organized way

An organ is made up of many different tissues which work together for a common function. The stomach is an organ made up of muscle tissues, secreteing tissues and such

An organ system is a system which consists of different organs which work together in an operation. the digestive system is made up of organs such as the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, gall bladder, small intestines and large intestines which help to break down food that we eat into absorbable substances and then excrete those that are undigestable

Answer 4

A tissue is a smaller component of an organ so many tissues make an organ many organs make a system am many systems make an organism.

Answer 5

A tissue is a collection of more-or-less identical, specialized cells designed to complete a specific task.  An organ is a collection of tissues that completes a more general task.  For example, the lining of your stomach is a tissue that protects the rest of your stomach from being damaged by stomach acid.  Your stomach is an organ that chemically digests proteins.

Answer 6

Tissue is part of your skin. An organ is a full part of the body that works on it's own.
