CBSE Test Paper 03
Chapter 06 Tissues
Answers
1. c. (C)
Explanation: Parenchyma serves as a packing tissue in plants therefore they
have intercellular spaces.
Collenchymatous tissues are mechanical tissues in the plants and are
characterised by deposition of cellulose at the corners of the cell, which leads to
localised thickenings of the cell wall.
Apical and intercalary meristem bring primary growth (increase in height) and
secondary growth (increase in diameter) respectively and are classified under
meristematic tissues.
Meristematic tissue are dividing units of the plants and contain dense
cytoplasm and large nucleus with few or no vacuoles at all.
So, statement A, B and D are correct statement and statement C are incorrect
statement.
2. b. muscle to bone
Explanation: A tendon is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches muscle to
bone. Tendons may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball.
3. a. cell wall
Explanation: The cells do not have a cell wall. However, each cell has a thin cell
membrane.A large vacuole is present at the centre of each cell, and is
surrounded by the cytoplasm. Lightly stained cytoplasm is observed in each
cell.A deeply stained nucleus is observed at the centre of each cell.
4. d. Cuticle
Explanation: In desert plants, rate of water loss gets reduced due to presence of
cuticle on leaves surface. Water is mostly lost in form of water vapour during
transpiration.
5. c. Unstriated muscles
Explanation: Unstraited muscles also called involuntary or smooth muscles,do
nor work under our control. They secret enzymes and digestive juices hence
perform digestion regularly .
8. Collenchyma provides flexibility to the parts of the plants. It allows easy bending of
leaves and stem without breaking.
11. (i) Protection. (ii) Regulation of transpiration (iii) Formation of insulating stationary
air layer with the help of hair. (iv) Exchange of gases.
13. (a) Tissue that forms the inner lining of our mouth: Epithelial tissue
(b) Tissue that connects muscle to bone in humans: Tendons
(c) Tissue that transports food in plants: Phloem
(d) Tissue that stores fat in our body: Adipose tissue
(e) Connective tissue with a fluid matrix: Blood
(f) Tissue present in the brain: Nerve tissue

15. Permanent tissues are derived from meristematic tissue but their cells have lost the
power of division and have attained their definite form.
Permanent tissues are classified into - Simple permanent tissue and Complex
permanent tissue.
(i) Simple permanent tissues: These tissues are composed of cells which are
structurally and functionally similar. Simple permanent tissues are further classified
into the following three types:-
a. Parenchyma: Parenchyma forms the bulk of the plant body. Parenchyma cells are
living and possess the power of division.
b. Collenchyma: Collenchyma tissue is also living. It is characterised by the
deposition of extra cellulose at the corners of the cells.
c. Sclerenchyma: Sclerenchyma cells are dead cells and they are devoid of
protoplasm. The cell walls of sclerenchyma are largely thickened due to deposits
of lignin.
(ii) Complex permanent tissues: The complex tissues consist of more than one type
of cells having a common origin. All these cells coordinate to perform a common
function.
Complex permanent tissues are of the following two types:-
a. Xylem: Xylem is a vascular and mechanical tissue. It is a conducting tissue. Xylem
is composed of four different types of cells: (i)Tracheids (ii) Vessels (iii) Xylem
parenchyma (iv) Xylem sclerenchyma. Except xylem parenchyma, all other xylem
elements are dead and bounded by thick lignified walls.
b. Phloem: Like xylem, phloem is vascular but has no mechanical function. Phloem is
composed of the following four elements: (i) Sieve tubes (ii) Companion cells (iii)
Phloem parenchyma (iv) Phloem fibres. Except phloem fibres, all other phloem
elements are living.
Xylem and phloem are both conducting tissues and also known as vascular tissues;
together, both of them constitute the vascular bundle.
