Answer»

The correct CHOICE is (a) biopsy

To explain I WOULD say: The smallest unit of any system is its cell. Every organ is made of tissues and tissues are a collection of similar cells. THUS, what a tissue system does is a result of the NETWORK of the similar cells. So, when a tissue is diseased or injured, a part of the tissue is extracted to study the nature of the trauma or disease. This extracted part is called a biopsy.
