Answer:
perform functions that tissues cannot carry out on their own
Explanation:
In the hierarchy of living system organs come after tissues and before organ systems. Hence, organs are complex then tissues and perform functions that tissues wont be able to perform on their own.
A organ is made up of various types of tissues. They can be divided into two categories, main tissue and sporadic tissue. Main tissue or parenchyma is unique to that organ and defines the function of the organ. For example: Cortex and medulla together form the main functional tissue in kidney. Similarly, myocardium is the main tissue of the heart. Sporadic tissue has blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues.
Answer:
The correct answer is: It allows large masses of food to pass through the esophagus when swallowing.
Explanation:
The trachea, or windpipe, is a hollow organ that <u>connects the larynx to the bronchi and allows the passage of air</u> so it can reach the lungs and make the gas exchange possible.
The trachea has cartilages around it to reinforce the tube for protection and to maintain the airway open. The places where there's cartilage are the anterior and the lateral sides of the trachea. This cartilage has the shape of an incomplete ring, or the shape of a C to allow the passage of food. The side that has no cartilage is the posterior side of the trachea, which is the side that is <u>in relation to the esophagus</u> - the part of the gastrointestinal tract that transports the food from the buccal cavity to the stomach.

Elevation can affect the amount of sunlight that plants receive, the amount of water that plants can absorb and the nutrients that are available in the soil. As a result, certain plants grow very well in high elevations, whereas others can only grow in middle or lower elevations.
