NEET 2016 Phase 1 · BiologyPrevious Year Question

Which type of tissue correctly matches with its location?

Answer: (A) Tissue: Smooth muscle, Location: Wall of intestine. Answer: (1) Smooth muscle — Wall of intestine.

  1. A.Tissue: Smooth muscle, Location: Wall of intestine
  2. B.Tissue: Areolar tissue, Location: Tendons
  3. C.Tissue: Transitional epithelium, Location: Tip of nose
  4. D.Tissue: Cuboidal epithelium, Location: Lining of stomach

Correct Answer

(A) Tissue: Smooth muscle, Location: Wall of intestine

Solution & Explanation

Answer: (1) Smooth muscle — Wall of intestine. Solution: The wall of the intestine (and other visceral organs) is lined by smooth (non-striated, involuntary) muscle, so (1) is the correct match. Tendons are made of dense regular connective tissue, not areolar (loose connective) tissue; the tip of the nose is supported by elastic cartilage, not transitional epithelium; and the inner lining of the stomach is columnar epithelium, not cuboidal epithelium — hence (2), (3) and (4) are wrong. NCERT (Class XI, Structural Organisation in Animals — Animal Tissues, pre-2023 rationalisation text): muscular tissue (smooth muscle) and connective/epithelial tissue locations.
