For these two, it's either true or false, and I'm having a melt down with it :
True/False : Nervous tissue contracts
True/False : An organ consists of different tissues that carry out a specific function.
And one last one,
What are the parts of a long bone, and what is the functions of each?
And help would be appreciated, or a link of some sort to the information =)

1. False
2. True
3. It depends on which long bone you are talking about. There are differences between them. You can email me or ask as another question.

False--nervous tissue does not contract
True--Organs are made up of tissues for specialized functions (tissues are made of specialized cells).
Epiphysis – the end of a long bone
Diaphysis – the shaft of the bone
Periosteum – fibrous tissue that covers the bone
Medullary Cavity – hollow chamber in the compact bone of the diaphysis
