Questions Related to animal tissue

Myology belongs to the study of

  1. Shells

  2. Mammals

  3. Muscles

  4. Skin


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Conchology is the study of shells.
Mammalogy is the study of mammals. 
Myology is the study of structure, function and arrangement of muscles.
Dermatology is the study of skin.
So correct answer is 'Muscles'.

Muscles immune to fatigue are

  1. Striped

  2. Unstriped

  3. Cardiac

  4. Eye muscles


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Cardiac muscle has a large amount of mitochondria than skeletal muscle. It has a continuous supply of oxygen and nutrients that help to resist fatigue.
So, the correct answer is 'Cardiac'.

Which of the following structures or materials is incorrectly matched with a tissue?

  1. Haversian system-bone

  2. Fibroblasts-skeletal,muscle

  3. Chondrin-cartilage

  4. Basement membrane-epithelium


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A fibroblast is a type of cell that is responsible for making the extracellular matrix and collagen.

So, the correct option is 'Fibroblasts-skeletal,muscle'.

Choose the correct answers from the alternatives given.
Which of the following muscles bend the forearm upwards?

  1. Biceps

  2. Triceps

  3. Gastrocnemius

  4. Gluteus maximus


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

  • The large muscle of the upper arm flexes the arm and powerfully twists the forearm, turning the palm upward.
  • This muscle extends from the head of the head of the humerus over the elbow to the ulna bone to help flex the elbow, and also enables pronation of the forearm.
So, the correct option is 'Biceps'.

Tendons connect

  1. A muscle with a muscle

  2. A muscle with a bone

  3. A bone with another bone

  4. A bone with a ligament


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Tendons connect muscles to bones. They are a type of connective tissue. They are strong with limited flexibility.

Choose the correct answer from the alternatives givens.
In most ..........., cells secrete fibres of collagen and elastin:

  1. epithelial tissue

  2. muscle tissue

  3. connective tissue

  4. nervous tissue


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Glycoprotein, elastin, and collagen secretion by rat smooth muscle cells. Smooth muscle cells from rat heart secreted extracellular matrix components at high rates for many generations in culture. So the correct option is 'Muscle tissue'.

Which type of tissue forms spinal cord and brain?

  1. Muscular tissue

  2. Nervous tissue

  3. Epithelial tissue

  4. Connective tissue


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
  • Spinal cord and brain control all activities of our body. Spinal cord possesses nerves, which carry messages between the brain and the body.
  •  The brain sends commands for the functioning of different organs of the body via nerves. 
  • Therefore, they are made of nervous tissue. Hence, option B is correct.  

Cell body of a nerve cell contains_____________.

  1. Nucleus

  2. Cytoplasm

  3. Kupffer cells

  4. Both A and B


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Cyton or cell body of a neuron possesses cytoplasm and nucleus. It contains many organelles, including granules called Nissl granules, which are composed largely of rough endoplasmic reticulum and free polyribosomes. Therefore, option D is correct. 

The nervous tissue, which contains densely packed cells are called as

  1. Neurons

  2. Nissl's granules

  3. Dendrons

  4. Axon


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

  • The densely packed nerve cells present in the brain, spinal cord, and sense organs are called neurons. They are specialized for the conduction of nerve impulses and they are mainly of two types, sensory neurons, and motor neurons.

So, the correct option is 'Neurons'.

The neurons are specialised cells for

  1. Conduction of nerve impulses

  2. Conduction of food

  3. Immunity

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • The neurons are specialized for the conduction of nerve impulses. Conduction of nerve impulses is aided by synapse. 
  • Synapse is a structure that allows a neuron to pass the electrical signal or chemical signal to another neuron. Therefore, option A is correct.
