1. Purpose of the product
Tissue is a big subject, and it has links with almost every other branch of science. The study
of tissue biology therefore provides a great scientific education. However, as the science
advances, it becomes increasingly easy to become lost in detail, distracted by an overload of
information and technical terminology. In this book we therefore focus on providing a
digestible, straightforward, and engaging account of only the essential principles. We seek to
explain, in a way that can be understood even by a reader approaching biology for the first
time, how the living cell works: to show how the tissues cooperate to create this remarkable
system that feeds, responds to stimuli, moves, grows, divides, and duplicates itself.
Our electronic book delivers an authoritative, accurate, current, and pedagogically innovative
experience that helps students make connections so they learn and understand biology. This
edition presents new, engaging visual and digital resources that meet demonstrated student
needs.
Our goals for the “Tissue” include:
Supporting students with new visual presentations of content and new study tools
Supporting instructors by providing new teaching modules with tools and materials
for introducing, teaching, and assessing important and often challenging topics
Integrating text and media to engage, guide, and inform students in an active process
of inquiry and learning
Our starting point, as always, is our commitment to crafting text and visuals that are accurate,
are current, and reflect our passion for teaching biology.
2. User personas
“Know your audience”. For this book, we have tried to follow this important advice. And we
understand that general chemistry will be the only university or college chemistry course for
some students, and thus their only opportunity to learn some practical applications of
chemistry. We have designed this book for all these students.
Students of this text should have already studied some cell, tissue information. But those
with no prior background and those who could use a refresher will find that the early chapters
develop fundamental concepts from the most elementary ideas. Students who do plan to
become professional will also find opportunities in the text to pursue their own special
interests.
The typical student may need help identifying and applying principles and visualizing their
significance. The pedagogical features of this text are designed to provide this help. At the
same time, we hope the text serves to sharpen student skills in problem solving and critical
thinking. Thus, we have tried to strike the proper balances between principles and
applications, qualitative and quantitative discussions, and rigor and simplification.
Examples relevant to the tissue will be found in several places. This should help to bring the
biology alive for these students and help them understand its relevance to their career
interests. It also, in most cases, should help them master core concepts.
3. User stories
How to behave when using on our project? No special rules of use are required here.
Immediately after the title page, the contents of the e-book are outlined, that is, there you can
find what topic and where. The design and illustration are very well done, so the book is nice
to read. You can read an e-book on many different devices: iPhone, Android smartphones, a
MacBook, PC, and e-readers such as the Nook and Kindle. There are also videos in the book;
you can watch it by clicking once. Besides, there are added specific and benevolent audio
effects to create an atmospheric reading and improve the quality of reading.

5. Page Titles and Meta Descriptions
Page Titles and Meta Descriptions are short pieces of HTML code found in every web page.
They show the title of the web page and its description, similar to the title and blurb on the
front and back of a book. They tell you what the book (or page) is about before you open it
(or click the link). That’s why it is important to be in the sites. Characteristics of a good meta
description
1. Keep it up to 155 characters. ...
2. Use active voice and make it actionable. ...
3. Include a call-to-action. ...
4. Use your focus keyword. ...
5. Show specifications, where possible. ...
6. Make sure it matches the content of the page. ...
7. Make it unique.
6. Wireframes
Wireframes help the designer to determine which elements should be included on each page,
and which functionality traits need to be set in place for each element. A wireframe allows a
designer and developer to connect with a client and work together in a cohesive manner with
a goal in mind. The wireframing process is extremely important as it is the root to your
interface design. It helps determine the information architecture, user flow and also the logic
of the flow. Overall, I see a need for this process to be included in your product design
process.
7 Tips for Creating Wireframes
1. Talk to Stakeholders. Whether you're creating a website for an internal or external
clients, it's imperative to understand their requirements. ...
2. Buttons Should be Obvious. ...
3. Think About Navigation. ...
4. Set Grids and Use Boxes. ...
5. Add Actual Text. ...
6. Include Important Elements. ...
7. Share the Wireframe with Others.
7. Some typical non-functional requirements are:
Performance – for example Response Time, Throughput, Utilization, Static
Volumetric.
Scalability.
Capacity.
Availability.
Reliability.
Recoverability.
Maintainability.
Serviceability.
Why do we need non-functional requirements?
Defining proper non-functional requirements allows us to test and measure the success of any
given project, process, or system. By being able to define the success of these, we are more
easily able to gauge the quality of the software we produce
