The basic tissues as you have learnt in earlier classes, organise to form organs which in turn associate to form organ systems in the multicellular organisms. Such an organisation is essential for more efficient and better coordinated activities of millions of cells constituting an organism. Each
Assertion (A): Multicellular organisms achieve efficient coordination of cellular activities. Reason (R): Efficient coordination depends on the organization of cells into tissues, organs, and organ systems.
Correct answer: A — If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
NCERT states “Such an organisation is essential for more efficient and better coordinated activities of millions of cells constituting an organism.” Both statements are true from NCERT. The Reason explains WHY efficient coordination is achieved - it depends on the hierarchical organization from cells to tissues to organs to organ systems. This organizational dependency enables coordination.
