Found-in plants
Consists Of- no of cell types
Function- transports water and mineral ions throughout plant
Gives mechanical support
What do stomach organs consist of
Muscle to churn + mix contents
Epithelium to protect stomach wall + produce secretions
Connective tissues holding together other tissues
