This is the process by which a new organism is formed by the fusion of a sperm and egg, as in human reproduction, producing a unique individual person. When similar cells act together to perform a specific function they become a tissue. In this tissue, the cells are able to divide to repair any damage that occurs to the tissue 2 This tissue includes many different types of cell, all of which are packed tightly together and arranged in continuous sheets. These tissues receive all their nutrients and remove their waste through diffusion as they have no blood supply of their own 3 A vertical plane running from side to side; divides the body or any of its parts into anterior and posterior portions. 4 This tissue supports and connects different parts of the body.
