(a) Pneumatic bones
(b) Lungs with air sacs
(c) Four chambered heart
(d) Homoithermy
(e) Feathers
(f) Scales
(g) Crop and gizzard.

  1. (a), (b), (d), (e) & (g)

  2. (a), (b) & (e)

  3. (a), (b)

  4. (e) only


Correct Option: A

The direction of impulse in a typical neuron is

  1. Axon to dendron

  2. Dendron to axon

  3. Both A and B

  4. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In a typical neuron, the incoming signals are first taken up by the dendrites and they are then passed on to the axons via the neuron body. 

Image result for The direction of impulse in a typical neuron is

So, the correct answer is 'Dendron to axon'

Neurilemma is outer covering of _______________.

  1. Blood capillaries

  2. Muscle fibre

  3. Intestine

  4. Nerve fibre


Correct Option: D

Plasmalemma of axon is called ______________.

  1. Axolemma

  2. Neurilemma

  3. Sarcolemma

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A

Neuro-fibrils are present in ___________.

  1. Cyton

  2. Muscles

  3. Bones

  4. Connective tissue


Correct Option: A

Function of nerves tissue is?

  1. Excitability

  2. Sensitivity

  3. Elasticity

  4. Contraction


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

  • Nervous tissues are the class of specialized tissues majorly found in the central and peripheral nervous system. 
  • These tissues are made up of neurons and their supporting cells called neuroglia. 
  • These tissues are responsible for the control and coordination throughout the body. 
  • The nervous tissues or neurons are excitable cells that work on the basis of action potentials.

So, the correct answer is 'Excitability'.

Which of the following is an incorrect match of cell junction along with its structure and function?

  1. Cell junction - Tight junctions,
    Structure - Tightly bound, leak proof, fibrous protein 'belt' that surrounds cells ,
    Functions - Organizing junction : hold cells together such that material passes through but not between the cells.

  2. Cell junction - Desmosomes
    Structure - Intermediate filaments linked to adjoining cells through cadherins cytoskeleton.
    Functions - Anchoring junction : "buttons" cells together.

  3. Cell junction - Plasmodesmata
    Structure - Six transmembrane connexon proteins creating a "pipe" that connects cells
    Function - Communicating junctions : allow passage of small molecules from cell to cell in a tissue.

  4. Cell junction - Adherens junctions
    Structure - Transmembrane fibrous proteins.
    Functions - Anchoring junction : "roots" extra-cellular matrix to cytoskeleton.


Correct Option: C

Which is true of contractile tissue of sphincter?
$1.$ Mesodermal
$2$. Contain stretch receptors
$3$. Rhythmicity
$4$. Indefatigible.

  1. All the four

  2. Only $1, 2$ and $3$

  3. Only $1, 2$ and $4$

  4. Only $1, 3$ and $4$


Correct Option: B

A human cell which contains a large amount of RER, many golgi bodies and a prominent nucleolus is most likely a

  1. Muscle cell

  2. Secretory cell

  3. Nerve cell

  4. RBC


Correct Option: A

What is sarcomere ?

  1. Part between two H-lines

  2. Part between two A-lines

  3. Part between two I-bands

  4. Part between two Z-lines


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
The sarcomeres are fibrous protein filaments that slide past one another when the muscle contracts or relaxes. It is basically the region between two Z-bands.
So, the correct answer is 'Part between two Z-lines'.
