A group of tissues that work together to perform a similar function

1 answer

A group of tissues that work together to perform a similar function is called an organ. Organs are made up of different types of tissues that collaborate to carry out specific tasks in the body. For example, the heart is an organ that consists of muscular tissue (which contracts), connective tissue (which provides structure), and nervous tissue (which helps regulate the heartbeat), all working together to pump blood throughout the body.
