Previous Chapter 5

Q1. Define the term “tissue” ?

Answer:

Q2. How many types of elements together make xylem tissue? Name them.

Answer:

Xylem tissue is made up of four types of elements are – Tracheids, Vessels, Xylem parenchyma and xylem fibers.

Q3. How are simple tissues different from complex tissues in plants/

Answer:

Simple tissues are made up of only one type of cell which perfoms similar functions

whereas

Complex tissues are made up of more than one type of cells and can perform similar functions.

Q4. Differntiate between parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma on the basis of cell wall.

Answer:

For Parenchyma the cell wall is thin and made up of cellulose.

For collenchyma the cell wall is thick.

For sclerenchyma the cell wall is thick at the corners due the deposition of pectin.

Q5. What are the functions of stomata?

Answer:

The functions of stomata are:

a.     Invovled in the exchange of gases.

b.     Removal of excess water by the process of transpiration

Q6. Diagrammatically show the difference between the three types of muscle fibres.

Q7.Differentiate between striated , unstriated and cardiac muscles on the basis of their structure and site/location in the body.

Answer:


Striated Muscle
Unstriated muscle
Cardiac muscle
Cells are long, cylinderical and unbranched
Cells are long , triangular and unbranched
The cells are cylinderical and branched
Multiple nuclei are present on the periphery
Single centrally located nuclei
One/two centrally located nuclei
Found in hand , feet and other skeletal muslces
Make the walls of stomach, intestine , bronchi
Cardiac muscles are in found in the heart

 

Q8. What is the function of cardiac muscle?

Answer:

Cardiac muscle helps in the rhythmic contraction and relaxation of heart wall throguhout the life.

c.      Phloem

d.     Adipose tissue

e.     Blood

f.       Nervous tissue

Q11. Identify the types of tissue in the following :

Skin, bark of tree, bone, lining of kidney tobule, vascular bundle

Answer:

a.     Skin – squamous epithelium

b.     Bark of tree – cork

c.      Bone – connective tissue

d.     Lining of kidney tubule – cuboidal epithelium

e.     Vascular bundle – conductive tissue

Q12. Name the regions in which parenchyma tissue is present.

Answer:

Parenchyma tissue is present in cortex and marrow of roots and stems. When it brears chlorophyll, it is found in green leaves.

Q13.  What is the role of epidermis in plants?

Answer:

The epidermis forms a continous layer or covering without any intercellular space. It protects all the plants.

Q14. How does cork act as a protective tissue?

Answer:

Cork acts as protective layer beacuse

        i.            Cork has dead cells and forms layer without leaving any intercellular space.

      ii.            Suberin is deposited on its wall which makes it able to help the exchange of gases.
