Questions Related to muscle tissue

Myology belongs to the study of

biology animal tissue muscular tissues muscle tissue muscle tissues

  1. Shells

  2. Mammals

  3. Muscles

  4. Skin

Show answer
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

Show answer
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?

biology animal tissue muscular tissues muscle tissue muscle tissues

  1. Haversian system-bone

  2. Fibroblasts-skeletal,muscle

  3. Chondrin-cartilage

  4. Basement membrane-epithelium

Show answer
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?

biology animal tissue muscular tissues muscle tissue muscle tissues

  1. Biceps

  2. Triceps

  3. Gastrocnemius

  4. Gluteus maximus

Show answer
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

Show answer
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

Show answer
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 of the following ions has a regulatory role in internal movements?

biology animal tissue muscle tissue structure of protein muscle tissues

  1. Calcium

  2. Magnesium

  3. Iron

  4. Zinc

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
  • Sarcoplasmic reticulum is similar to endoplasmic reticulum present in other cells. It is present in sarcoplasm (cytoplasm of the muscle cell) of the muscle fiber (muscle cell).
  • The main function of the Sarcoplasmic reticulum is to store calcium ions (Ca2+).
  • When nerve signal reaches the neuromuscular junction it triggers the release of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum which in turn facilitates muscle contraction by binding to troponin. thus causing tropomyosin to shift from the face of the actin filament to which myosin heads need to bind to produce a contraction.
  • Hence Calcium ions have a regulatory role in internal movements.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Calcium'.

All the following are examples of connective tissue except _______________.

biology animal tissue muscle tissue structure of protein muscle tissues

  1. Tendons

  2. Ligaments

  3. Muscle

  4. Adipose tissue

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Connective tissue serves a connecting function. It supports and binds other tissues in the body. This tissue typically has cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix of fibrous proteins and glycoproteins attached to a basement membrane. The primary elements of connective tissue include a ground substance, fibres, and cells. Adipose tissue is a type of specialised connective tissue and the ligaments and the tendons belong to the dense type of connective tissue while the muscle belongs to another class of tissues namely muscle tissue which are different from the connective tissue.
So, the correct answer is 'Muscle'.

A muscle is rich in 

biology animal tissue muscle tissue structure of protein muscle tissues

  1. Fat

  2. Protein

  3. Vitamins

  4. Carbohydrate

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A muscle is rich in protein. The muscle cells contain protein filaments of actin and myosin. Actin is a thin filament and myosin is a thick filament. These protein filaments slide past one another to produce contraction. This results in change in length and shape of the cell.

Thus, the correct answer is 'Protein.'

Movement in body are brought about by?

biology animal tissue muscle tissue structure of protein muscle tissues

  1. Muscular tissue

  2. Epithelial tissue

  3. Bones

  4. Tendon and ligaments

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The main function of the muscular system is movement. Muscles are the only tissue in the body that has the ability to contract and therefore move the other parts of the body & the maintenance of the body posture & body position.

So, the correct option is 'Muscular tissue'.
