For M2, learners must briefly explain cell differentiation and its importance in the formation of tissue types. Learners should be able to identify different types of tissues from their observations of electron micrographs and explain how the presence of certain numbers of cell components influences the function of tissues. For example, consideration of the effect a large number of mitochondria in a tissue may have on its function. Different tissue types should be considered.
