The passage discusses different types of plant and animal tissues, their characteristics and functions. It also provides examples of multiple choice questions related to tissues.

The main types of tissues discussed are epithelial tissues, connective tissues, muscular tissues and meristematic tissues. It describes their characteristics like cell shape, presence of intercellular spaces and functions.

Meristematic tissues are dividing cells found in specific regions of plants. They have dense cytoplasm, prominent nuclei, thin cell walls and lack vacuoles in their early stages. They are responsible for growth in plants.
