Bullock · Answer 1

C.) organs are a group of two or more different types of tissues that work together to perform a specific function

Explanation:

Cells of similar function are grouped together into tissues. For example, cardiac muscle tissue is present only in the heart, and made up of specialised cells called cardiomyocytes, or cardiac muscle cells. These cells contract to pump blood around the body.

The heart is an organ, consisting of multiple types of tissue including cardiac muscle tissue, connective tissue, blood vessels and epithelial tissue. Therefore, organs represent a group of at least two types of tissue that work together to carry out functions in the body.
