9th Class Biology 3rd Lesson Animal Tissues 4 Marks Important Questions and Answers

Question 1.
Write a note on areolar tissue.
Answer:

• Areolar tissue is one type of connective tissue which joins different tissues.
• It helps in packing and helps to keep the organs in place.
• These cells are called fibroblasts.
• These are the major components of areolar tissue.
• These cells secrets fibrous material which holds the other tissue in position.
• They also help in repair of the tissue when they are injured.

Question 2.
Write a note on WBC.
Answer:

• White blood cells or WBC are one type of blood cells.
• They do not have haemoglobin, hence they are colourless.
• They are also called as leucocytes.
• They are less in number when compared to the RBC.
• They are two types :
  1. Granulocytes,
  2. Agranulocytes.
• Granulocytes are three types. They are neutrophils, basophils and esinophils.
• Granulocytes attack and destroy the microorganisms that enter the blood.
• Agranulocytes are two types. They are lymphocytes and monocytes.
• Lymphocytes secret anti-bodies to guard against foreign material, that enter into blood.
• So, lymphocytes are also called as microscopic policemen.
• Monocytes attack the foreign materials and destroyed them.
• So, they are called “scavengers”.

Question 3.
What are the functions of connective tissue?
Answer:
Connective tissue connects the organs and muscles. It performs so many functions.

1. Helps in binding the other tissues and organs together.
2. Provides a frame work and support to various organs in the body.
3. Plays a major role in the transport of material from one tissue to another.
4. Helps in the body defence.
5. Helps in the body repairs.
6. Helps in the storage of fat.

Question 4.
Write a note on a nerve cell or neuron with the help of a neat diagram.
Answer:
Nervous tissue is made up of neurons.

It has 3 parts :

1. Cell body or cyton
2. Axon
3. Dendrites.

Cell body or Cyton :

1. It has a large nucleus and cytoplasm.
2. The cytoplasm contains Nissl’s granules.

Dendrites:

1. Projections arising from cell body are called dendrites.
2. They are sharp, branched and more in number.
3. The dendrite connected to another nerve cell’s axon.

Axon :

1. One projection of the cyton is long, called as axon.
2. In some nerve cells, axon covered with myelin sheath.
3. Nodes on axon are called Ranvier Nodes.
4. Axon of a nerve cell is connected with dendrites of another cell to frame a web like structure throughout body.
