Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist, which causes it to be less addictive than either heroin or methadone. The âhighâ produced by buprenorphine is less intense, and the side effects are less dangerous.
Biology: How Life Works. Instructors. Students. For questions or problems with the content, please contact Technical Support at 800-936-6899. Biology: How Life Works was written in response to recent and exciting changes in biology, education, and technology with the goal of helping students to think like biologists. The text, visual program, and assessments were developed together to provide students with the best resources to gain an understanding of modern biology.
Body Systems: Tissues. At this point students know that cells make up all living things. But cells do not work independently within complex organisms such as plants, animals and of course people. Cells work together in organisms like people in an organized way that allows that organism to survive. This page explains how complex organisms are organized or another way of looking at it would be to say how complex living things are built. All complex organisms are made of groups of cells called tissues. Histologists are scientists that are experts on tissues. Tissues are groups of cells working together to get a certain job done. There are four basic types of tissues that make up the body --->. Organs are a groups of different tissues working together to complete a life function. Organ systems are many organs, tissues and cells working together to complete a life function.
