Tissues And Organs

Question 1

What is a stomach cell

Answer 1

A specialised cell

Question 2

What is a tissue

Answer 2

A group of specialised cells, of the same type, working together to form a common organ

Question 3

What is an organ made of

Answer 3

Tissues

Question 4

What is the organ system

Answer 4

Difficult organs combined

Question 5

What do tissues do ?

Answer 5

Tissues work together to digest food in the stomach

Question 6

Which are the three types of tissue in the stomach ?

Answer 6

Epithelial
Muscular
Glandular

Question 7

What is the role of epithelial tissue

Answer 7

Covers the outside of the stomach and acts as stomach lining

Question 8

What is the role of muscular tissue

Answer 8

The tissue contracts and causes the wall of the stomach of move which then churns up food

Question 9

What is the role of the glandular tissue

Answer 9

It produces acid and enzymes which sterilise the food and kill bacteria. It’s then poured into the stomach cavity to help digest food

Question 10

What is digestion ?

Answer 10

Large food molecules being physically and chemically broken down into smaller, more useable and absorbable food, which can then be used for growth repair and energy.

Question 11

What order does food get digested in ?

Answer 11

Mouth 
Oesophagus 
Stomach 
(Liver)
(Pancreas) 
Small intestine 
Large intestine 
Colon 
Rectum

Answer 12

Physically breaks down food with teeth

Question 13

Question 20

What’s the role of xylem (plants)

Answer 20

Transports water and nutrients (known as transpiration)

Question 21

What is the role of phloem

Answer 21

Transports sugars ( knows as translocation)

One-directional transport
Transports minerals
Transports water

Question 25

Name four features of phloem

Answer 25

Transports sugar
Two-directional transport
Living cells
Contains sieve plates

Question 26

What is transpiration

Answer 26

The transportation of water and nutrients

Question 27

What is translocation

Answer 27

The transportation of sugar

Question 28
