Tissues are groups of similar cells that have a common function. The four basic tissue types are epithelial, muscle, connective, and nervous tissue. Each tissue type has a characteristic role in the body:
i. Epithelium covers the body surface and lines body cavities.
ii. Muscle provides movement.
iii. Connective tissue supports and protects body organs.
iv. Nervous tissue provides a means of rapid internal communication by transmitting electrical impulses.
Platyhelminths are the first bilaterally symmetrical, acoelomate metazoans to have reached the tissue-organ level of organization. Further all Acoelomates, pseudocoelomate, cellmates have this organization.
