1. What is the primary function of epithelial tissue?
A. Support
B. Contraction
C. Protection and secretion
D. Energy storage
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:Epithelial tissue covers surfaces, lines cavities, and
secretes substances.
2. Which epithelium is best suited for diffusion?
A. Stratified squamous
B. Simple cuboidal
C. Simple squamous
D. Transitional
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:Simple squamous epithelium is thin, allowing efficient
exchange of gases and nutrients.
,3. Which epithelium lines the respiratory tract and has cilia?
A. Simple squamous
B. Pseudostratified columnar
C. Stratified squamous
D. Simple cuboidal
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:Ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium moves
mucus and debris out of airways.
4. Which epithelium lines the bladder?
A. Transitional
B. Simple squamous
C. Simple columnar
D. Stratified squamous
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:Transitional epithelium stretches as the bladder fills.
5. Which connective tissue stores fat?
A. Areolar
B. Dense irregular
C. Adipose
D. Cartilage
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:Adipose tissue stores energy, cushions organs, and
provides insulation.
,6. Which connective tissue forms tendons?
A. Dense irregular
B. Dense regular
C. Areolar
D. Cartilage
Correct Answer: B
