What are the main types of plant tissues?
Storage tissue
Meristematic tissue, permanent tissue, vascular tissue
Respiratory tissue
Photosynthetic tissue
Describe the function of xylem in plants.
Xylem stores food for the plant.
The function of xylem in plants is to transport water and minerals and provide structural support.
Xylem absorbs sunlight for energy.
Xylem is responsible for photosynthesis.
What is the role of phloem in plant tissue?
Phloem helps in the absorption of minerals from the soil.
Phloem is responsible for photosynthesis in leaves.
The role of phloem in plant tissue is to transport nutrients and sugars throughout the plant.
Phloem primarily stores water in the plant.
Identify the four main types of animal tissues.
Epithelial, muscular, skeletal, and connective tissue.
Nervous, epithelial, adipose, and lymphatic tissue.
Connective, muscular, epithelial, and respiratory tissue.
Epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous tissue.
What is the primary function of epithelial tissue?
Absorption of nutrients
Transportation of oxygen
Secretion of hormones
The primary function of epithelial tissue is protection.
How does connective tissue differ from other tissue types?
Connective tissue is characterized by a lack of extracellular matrix.
Connective tissue is primarily responsible for transmitting nerve impulses.
Connective tissue provides support and binds other tissues, characterized by a significant extracellular matrix.
Connective tissue is the only tissue type that forms the body's organs.
What type of muscle tissue is involuntary and found in the heart?
Skeletal muscle
Cardiac muscle
Smooth muscle
Striated muscle
Explain the difference between smooth and skeletal muscle tissue.
Smooth muscle is striated and skeletal muscle is non-striated.
Smooth muscle is voluntary and striated; skeletal muscle is involuntary and non-striated.
Both smooth and skeletal muscle are striated and involuntary.
Smooth muscle is involuntary and non-striated; skeletal muscle is voluntary and striated.
What is the function of nervous tissue in animals?
To produce hormones for growth regulation.
To provide structural support to organs.
The function of nervous tissue in animals is to transmit signals and facilitate communication within the body.
To store energy for muscle contractions.
How do meristematic tissues contribute to plant growth?
They protect the plant from pests and diseases.
They store nutrients for the plant.
They absorb sunlight for photosynthesis.
Meristematic tissues contribute to plant growth by facilitating cell division and differentiation, leading to the elongation and thickening of the plant.
