Animal Tissues MCQs

Q1. Which is a fluid connective tissue?

• A.blood
• B.bone
• C.cartilage
• D.muscle

Answer: A. blood

NCERT fact (biology, chapter 'Tissues in Action'): Blood is a fluid connective tissue. Why option A fits - Correct. Distractor analysis: option B) 'bone' misses the point - Hard connective tissue; option C) 'cartilage' is wrong because Flexible connective tissue. Final answer - A) blood.

Q2. Which animal tissue is described: 'covers the body and lines organs'?

• A.Epithelial tissue
• B.Glandular epithelium
• C.Blood
• D.Bone

Answer: A. Epithelial tissue

What is the textbook's take? Identify the defining feature of the structure/tissue named in the question; match that feature against the four options => only one option is consistent with the textbook description; therefore the correct identification = Epithelial tissue. Does that line up with one of the options? Yes - Correct. And the rest? option B) 'Glandular epithelium' is incorrect: Glandular epithelium: epithelium specialised for secretion; option C) 'Blood' fails since Blood: fluid connective tissue with plasma and cells. Pick: A) Epithelial tissue.

Q3. Which animal tissue is described: 'flat cells for protection/diffusion (e.g., lung alveoli)'?

• A.Squamous epithelium
• B.Blood
• C.Bone
• D.Cartilage

Answer: A. Squamous epithelium

Spot-the-setup - a typical biology numerical. We are after the quantity the stem asks for. Tool of choice - hence the result = Squamous epithelium. Rearrange it for the unknown before substituting. Common-sense check: write the electron configuration 2, 8, 8. Lock in option A) Squamous epithelium. Trap-watch: option B) 'Blood' is incorrect: Blood: fluid connective tissue with plasma and cells; option C) 'Bone' misses the point - Bone: hard connective tissue forming the skeleton.
