Question
Imagine that you live 50 years in the future, and you can custom- design a human to suit the environment. Your assignment is to customize the tissue makeup for life on a large planet with strong gravity; a cold, dry climate; and a thin atmosphere. What adaptations would you incorporate into the structure and/or amount of tissues, and why? Include all the body tissues in your design and discussion.
