  • A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

     

  • A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III

     

(3)

Unicellular glandular epithelium consists of isolated glandular cells, e.g., goblet cells (mucous cells) of the alimentary canal. Compound epithelium is made of more than one layer (multi-layered) of cells. It covers the dry surface of the skin, the moist surface of the buccal cavity, pharynx, inner lining of ducts of salivary glands, and pancreatic ducts. Multicellular glandular epithelium consists of a cluster of cells, e.g., salivary glands. Endocrine glands are commonly called ductless glands as they lack draining ducts, e.g., thyroid, pancreas, pituitary, etc.

(C) Squamous epithelium (III) Inner lining of bronchioles
(D) Cuboidal epithelium (IV) Endothelium

 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)

     

  • (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)

     

  • (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)

     

  • (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)

Q 4 :    

Given below are two statements:                   [2023]

 

Statement I: Goblet cells are unicellular glands.


Statement II: Earwax is the secretion of exocrine gland.

 

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • Statement I is true but Statement II is false.

     

  • Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are false.

     

(3)

Goblet cells of the alimentary canal are unicellular glands consisting of isolated glandular cells. Earwax is the secretion of an exocrine gland, which is secreted through ducts or tubes.

 



Q 5 :    

Given below are two statements:                                   [2023]

 

Statement I: Ligaments are dense irregular tissue.


Statement II: Cartilage is dense regular tissue.

 

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • Statement I is true but Statement II is false.

     

  • Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are false.

     

(4)

Ligaments are dense regular connective tissue. Cartilage, bones, and blood are types of specialized connective tissue.

 



Q 6 :    

Match List I with List II.                     [2023]

List I List II
A. Mast cells I. Ciliated epithelium
B. Inner surface of bronchiole II. Areolar connective tissue
C. Blood III. Cuboidal epithelium
D. Tubular parts of nephron IV. Specialised connective tissue

 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III

     

  • A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

     

  • A-I, B-II, C-IV, D-III

     

  • A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV

     

(1)

Mast cells → Areolar connective tissue

Inner surface of bronchiole → Ciliated epithelium

Blood → Specialised connective tissue

Tubular parts of nephron → Cuboidal epithelium

 



Q 7 :    

Which of the following is not a connective tissue?               [2022]

  • Blood

     

  • Adipose tissue

     

  • Cartilage

     

  • Neuroglia

     

(4)

Neuroglia, also called glial cells which constitute the rest of neural system protect and support neurons.

 



Q 8 :    

Which of the following is present between the adjacent bones of the vertebral column?             [2022]

  • Intercalated discs

     

  • Cartilage

     

  • Areolar tissue

     

  • Smooth muscle

     

(2)

Cartilage is present in the tip of nose, outer ear, joints, between adjacent bones of the vertebral column, limbs, and hands in adults.

  • (A)-(iii), (B)-(iv), (C)-(ii), (D)-(i)

     

(1)

Bronchioles → Ciliated epithelium

Goblet cell → Glandular tissue

Tendons → Dense regular connective tissue

Adipose Tissue → Loose connective tissue



Q 10 :    

Which of the following statements wrongly represents the nature of smooth muscle?               [2021]

  • These muscles are present in the wall of blood vessels.

     

  • These muscles have no striations.

     

  • They are involuntary muscles.

     

  • Communication among the cells is performed by intercalated discs.

     

(4)

Intercalated discs are present in cardiac muscle that communicate at some fusion points and allow the cells to contract as a unit.
