The study of the structure of tissues is called (a) gross anatomy, (b) cytology, (c) histology, (d) organology.

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Understand the definitions of each term: Gross anatomy is the study of structures visible to the naked eye, such as organs and organ systems.
Cytology is the study of cells, focusing on their structure and function at the microscopic level.
Histology is the study of tissues, which are groups of similar cells working together to perform a specific function.
Organology is the study of organs, their structure, and function within the body.
Since the question asks about the study of the structure of tissues, identify that histology is the correct term because it specifically deals with tissues.
