Independent variable 7 Examples: brain, sensory receptors, nerves, and spinal cord 8 Examples: Ligament, Cartilage, bone, tendon, blood 9 Function: Covers the body surface and organs like a wall to keep the inside and outside separate. 10 Function: A body tissue that provides support for the body and connects all of its parts 11 Structure: Cells that are tightly packed and have a definite top and bottom that is very strong. 12 Structure: Cells with jelly like material and with spindly fibers 13 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Not a variable. 14 Examples: Skin, outer layer of organs, lining of tubes, body cavities 15 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains? Controlled variable 16 How is the type of tissue effected by the number of cells it contains?
