Q1. A histology trainee notes that a tissue has only a few cells scattered widely apart, separated by large amounts of non-living intercellular material; to which of the four animal tissue groups does it belong?
- A.Connective tissue
- B.Epithelial tissue
- C.Nervous tissue
- D.Muscular tissue
Answer: A. Connective tissue
The hallmark of connective tissue is widely spaced cells embedded in a large amount of non-living matrix, so the described tissue is connective tissue.
Q2. A demonstrator explains that the chief job of one tissue group is to bind, support and link different body parts together; which group fits this description best?
- A.Muscular tissue
- B.Epithelial tissue
- C.Nervous tissue
- D.Connective tissue
Answer: D. Connective tissue
Connective tissue connects, binds, supports and packs the organs of the body, which is exactly the binding-and-support role described.
Q3. A pathologist remarks that the texture of a connective tissue, from runny to firm to rock-hard, is decided not by its cells but by something between them; what is that deciding factor?
- A.The nature of its matrix
- B.The thickness of the cell membrane
- C.The colour of the cytoplasm
- D.The number of nuclei per cell
Answer: A. The nature of its matrix
Connective tissues differ because their matrix may be fluid (blood), jelly-like (cartilage) or hard and calcified (bone); the matrix nature sets the texture.
