What kind of tissue is blood?

Connective tissue

What kind of tissue gives an organism the ability to move?

Muscle tissue

What kind of tissue are villi?

Epithelial tissue

What kind of tissue gives an organism the ability to respond to stimuli in the environment

Nerve tissue

Describe the levels of organization from cells to organ systems Cells make up tissue, tissue make up
