Give an example of how these parts work together to help the book function. </p><p>4. If a part of the book is missing, will the book still function as it was intended? Will it be more or less efficient? Explain.</p><p>5. Can poor treatment of the book affect how well it functions? Give an example.</p><p>6. Describe how an organ in your body is like a book.</p><p>Purpose</p><p>Examine how cells and tissues work together to form organs with specialized body functions.</p><p>Directions</p><p>Use the following website to build the organs listed in the attached chart. Describe the function of each organ in the body. Also, identify and record the parts (either cells or tissue) that make up each organ. https://www.centreofthecell.org/learn-play/games/build-an-organ/</p><p> www.njctl.org 7th Grade PSI Structure and Function and Information Processing After successfully building each organ, decide what system each organ belongs to.

Can specific types of cells be a part of several different organs? Provide an example.</p><p>2. Can specific types of tissues be a part of several different organs? Provide an example.</p><p>3. Do you think there are any types of cells and/or tissues that can only be a part of one organ? Justify your answer.</p><p>4. Choose one organ from the table above. Next, choose one type of cell or tissue that makes up that organ. Describe what would happen to the function of the organ if the cell or tissue was removed. You may need to go back to the website to remind yourself what the function of the cell or tissue is in the organ.</p><p> www.njctl.org 7th Grade PSI Structure and Function and Information Processing</p>
