  2. Your body is made up of millions of cells. Mammals and plants are multicellular which means they have many cells. Each type of cell carries out a different function.

  3. Differentiation • This is the development of a young, unspecialised cell into a mature specialised cell. • This enables cells to carry out a particular function.

  4. Cells that are similar in shape and have a common function are often collected together and attached to each other. • They form a tissue. • A tissue is a collection of DIFFERENTIATED CELLS which are specialised for a particular function within the organism.

  5. Anexampleof atissue. • We know that a tissue is a group of cells with a similar structure. • So, if we look at skeletal muscle, this is a TISSUE made up from skeletal muscle cells.

  6. What is an ORGAN? • Different tissues are grouped together to make an ORGAN. • An organ contains several different tissues, all of which contribute to its overall function. • An example of an organ is the pancreas. • Organs work in groups called organ systems, eg, respiratory system.
