Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a worksheet about the four types of tissues in the human body:
→ Muscular tissue
→ Epithelial tissue
→ Nervous tissue
→ Connective tissue
And we’re also given descriptions and examples (with images) to match them to.
---
Step 1: Match each tissue type to its description.
Look at the four descriptions:
A. “soft tissues that make the body strong and allow it to move. Long, tube-shaped cells called fibers contract (shorten) and then relax.”
→ This is clearly
Muscular tissue — because muscles contract and help with movement.
B. “contains cells that line the outer surfaces of the organs and blood vessels. They also cover the inside parts of internal organs”
→ This is
Epithelial tissue — it lines surfaces and cavities.
C. “is found in the nervous system. made of cells called neurons that send and receive messages from the nerves.”
→ This is
Nervous tissue — neurons are nerve cells.
D. “is found between other tissues everywhere in the body. It connects the different organs and parts of the body together.”
→ This is
Connective tissue — like glue holding things together (bones, tendons, blood, etc.).
So now we know:
- Muscular → A
- Epithelial → B
- Nervous → C
- Connective → D

Step 2: Now match each tissue type to where it can be found (using the bottom section).
We have 8 example images with labels:
Top row:
- Tendons and ligaments → Connective
- The brain → Nervous
- Bones → Connective
- Skeletal muscles → Muscular
Bottom row:
- Skin → Epithelial (outer layer)
- Inner surface of stomach → Epithelial (lines inside)
- The heart → Muscular (heart muscle)
- Nerves → Nervous
Now assign them to the correct tissue type:
1. Muscular tissue can be found in:
→ Skeletal muscles (top right)
→ The heart (bottom third from left)
2. Epithelial tissue can be found in:
→ Skin (bottom left)
→ Inner surface of stomach (bottom second from left)
3. Nervous tissue can be found in:
→ The brain (top second from left)
→ Nerves (bottom far right)
4. Connective tissue can be found in:
→ Tendons and ligaments (top left)
→ Bones (top third from left)

Final Answer:
1- Muscular tissue can be found in:
→ Skeletal muscles
→ The heart
2- Epithelial tissue can be found in:
→ Skin
→ Inner surface of stomach
3- Nervous tissue can be found in:
→ The brain
→ Nerves
4- Connective tissue can be found in:
→ Tendons and ligaments
→ Bones
