  • Throwing this open to the hive mind as, after a fair bit of googlage I'm still unsure.

    I need to write a sentence along these lines:

    a range of tissues is examined and observations recorded
    a range of tissues are examined and observations recorded

    Is or Are?

    Is the range the subject, making it singular?
    Are the tissues the subject, pluralizing my ass?
