#animal tissues question

3 public questions tagged with this topic.

Microvilli mainly function to:

The correct answer is C: Increase surface area. In Tissue-I, this idea is central because it matches how the body actually works in everyday teaching examples. Put simply, the functional job described in the stem is exactly what Increase surface area does in Tissue-I. That is why Increase surface area is the option that holds up when you check it against basic physiology. When you revise, say the answer out loud with one short reason attached; that sticks better than rote lists. Remember that physiology questions reward precise language: name the process, the location, and the outcome, then match that to the option text.

Ref: Animal physiology is Unit 7 of the CSIR NET Life Science Syllabus, covering core body systems. It accounts for roughly 10% of the total marks in Sections B and C.

Which of the following locations is lined by simple cuboidal epithelium?

Kidney tubules (B) is the right choice. This sits at the heart of Tissue-I: the wording points straight to what is happening in the tissue or organ system. A useful study habit is to ask what the structure or process is for: Kidney tubules is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Tissue-I. That reasoning supports Kidney tubules. One solid sentence about why this works is enough for recall — you do not need a long essay for every MCQ. When you practise, cover the choices first, write Kidney tubules from memory, then reveal the letter — that habit builds real recall for Tissue-I.

Which structure is found between epithelial tissue and connective tissue?

Pick B: Basement membrane. Thinking about Tissue-I in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: excitable-cell physiology turns on membranes, ions, and signalling steps, and Basement membrane captures the correct piece of that story. Hence Basement membrane is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Tissue-I; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto Basement membrane.
