(i) Identify A, B, C and D.

(ii) Write the functions of A, B, C and D.

(iii) Write the difference between A and D.

Write important functional differences between striated and smooth muscle tissues. Draw a labelled diagram of the muscle tissue that shows rhythmic contraction and relaxation throughout the life.

Name the tissue and write characteristic feature of
following.
(i) Connects bone to bone in humans.
(ii) Forms inner lining of alveoli.
(iii) Has prominent middle lamella.
(iv) Transports water and minerals in plants.

Identify the animal tissues from the given descriptions and also mention their location in the human body.

(i) Tissue A cells are filled with fat globules and the tissue acts as an insulator.

(ii) Tissue B has cylindrical branched cells and the tissue shows rhythmic contraction and relaxation
throughout life. 

(i) You can very easily bend the stem of a plant without breaking it. Name the tissue in the plant, which makes it possible. Where is it located? State any two characteristics of the cells of this tissue.
