Muscular, Connective, and Nervous Tissue Quiz

What are the three types of muscle tissue?

• skeletal muscle, cardiac tissue, and smooth tissue

• skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle

• skeletal tissue, cardiac muscle, and smooth tissue

• skeletal tissue, cardiac tissue, and smooth tissue

Describe the structure of skeletal muscle.

• Skeletal muscle is composed of bone and cartilage.

• Skeletal muscle is composed of muscle fibers bundled together in fascicles, surrounded by connective tissue. Within each muscle fiber, there are myofibrils made up of sarcomeres, which contain thick and thin filaments. Muscle contraction occurs when myosin and actin filaments slide past each other.

• Muscle fibers are surrounded by blood vessels.

• Muscle contraction occurs when the myosin and actin filaments separate.

What is the function of smooth muscle?

• Generate electrical signals

• Control voluntary movements

• Produce hormones

• Control involuntary movements

Name the components of nervous tissue.

• blood vessels and capillaries

• muscles and tendons

• bones and cartilage

• neurons and neuroglia

What is the role of connective tissue?

• The role of connective tissue is to store and release energy.

• The role of connective tissue is to produce hormones and enzymes.

• The role of connective tissue is to provide support, connect and bind tissues and organs, and aid in nutrient and waste transportation.

• The role of connective tissue is to transmit electrical signals in the body.

Which type of muscle tissue is voluntary?

• Cardiac muscle tissue

• Skeletal muscle tissue

• Smooth muscle tissue

• Visceral muscle tissue

What is the main function of skeletal muscle?

• Generate heat for the body.

• Protect internal organs.

• Produce hormones for the body.

• Enable movement of the body

What are the two main components of nervous tissue?

• bones and cartilage

• neurons and neuroglia

• muscles and tendons

• blood vessels and lymph nodes

Which type of muscle tissue is found in the walls of internal organs?

• skeletal muscle tissue

• smooth muscle tissue

• cardiac muscle tissue

• adipose tissue

What is the function of connective tissue in the nervous system?

• Regulation of blood flow to the brain.

• Transmission of electrical signals in the nervous system.

• Production of neurotransmitters in the brain.

• Support, protection, and insulation for the neurons.
