female? With your partner, decide on a name for your Maniken . Remember, he
or she is going to be with you the entire year!

1 What do you notice is the main difference between the structure of the
connective tissues and the structure of the epithelium? Make sure to note the
organization of cells in these two tissue types.
2 Explain how the structure of epithelium and the structure of connective tissue,
specifically bone, relate to the function of the tissue.
3 How does the distribution of tissues contribute to our appearance and to our
identity?
7. Describe the role of fat in our cheeks and behind our eyes.
8. Think about the action of the muscles you have built on your Maniken . Describe
specific motions that you would not be able to complete if you damaged your
temporalis, your orbicularis oculi or your orbicularis oris. How would this affect
your ability to communicate?
9. Reflect on your own identity. What do you think helps make you, you?
