Worked practice questions

How many basic tissue types are there?

  1. Four
  2. Nine
  3. Seven
  4. Twelve
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Four

1. They are epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous. 2. Every organ is built from them. 3. The four types of tissues are nervous, epithelial, muscle and connective tissue. 4. So the answer is four. _Source: OpenStax 'Anatomy and Physiology 2e', Ch 4 'The Tissue Level of Organization'_

Which tissue binds cells and organs together?

  1. Consumptive
  2. Connective
  3. Contractile
  4. Conductive
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Connective

1. Its name states its job. 2. It protects, supports and integrates. 3. Connective tissue binds the cells and organs of the body together. 4. So the answer is connective. _Source: OpenStax 'Anatomy and Physiology 2e', Ch 4 'The Tissue Level of Organization'_

Epithelial tissue is described as nearly completely:

  1. Ancillary
  2. Adipose
  3. Avascular
  4. Alveolar
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Avascular

1. Blood vessels do not run through it. 2. It relies on tissue below for supply. 3. Epithelial tissues are nearly completely avascular. 4. So the answer is avascular. _Source: OpenStax 'Anatomy and Physiology 2e', Ch 4 'The Tissue Level of Organization'_
