1. Define Mitosis? How many stages are there in mitosis? Name them all.

Explanation

Mitosis is a process of cellular division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells. It consists of four stages - Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase (PMAT), where each stage plays a specific role in the separation and distribution of genetic material.

2. What is Cytokinesis?

Explanation

Cytokinesis specifically refers to the process of dividing the cytoplasm of a cell into two daughter cells, following nuclear division.

Submit
3. What occurs during Prophase in the cell cycle?

Explanation

During Prophase, the genetic material in the cell condenses into visible chromosomes, setting the stage for cell division.

Submit
4. What occurs during Anaphase in cell division?

Explanation

Anaphase is the stage of cell division where the chromosomes are pulled to opposite poles of the cell, resulting in each chromatid becoming an individual chromosome.

Submit
5. What events occur during Telophase?

Explanation

Telophase is the final stage of cell division where distinct events like the ones mentioned in the correct answer take place. Chromosome replication, condensation, and cell division initiation occur in earlier stages of cell division.

Submit
6. Identify the tissue found here? Where is it found?

Explanation

This question is testing knowledge of histology by asking the examinee to identify a specific tissue type (Simple Squamous epithelial tissue) and where it is found (air sacs of the Lungs also called Alveoli). The correct answer provides the structure of the tissue and its location, while the incorrect answers suggest alternative tissue types found in different locations. Understanding different tissue types and their respective locations is crucial in various biomedical fields.

Submit
7. Identify the tissue shown here? Where is it found and what is the structure under the pointer?

Explanation

The correct answer describes Simple Cuboidal Epithelial tissue which is found in specific locations and has a distinct structure with the nucleus placement. The incorrect answers provide information about other types of tissues found in different locations and with different structures.

Submit
8. What type of tissue is depicted in the image? Where is it commonly found and what are two characteristic structures?

Explanation

The correct answer describes ciliated simple columnar epithelium tissue, which is distinct from the other tissue types mentioned in the incorrect answers. The incorrect answers provide details about different types of tissues with varying structures and locations within the body.

Submit
9. Identify the tissue here? Were is it found and the two structures?

Explanation

The correct answer is (Pseudo Stratified Columnar Epithelial Tissue)Found in: Trachea due to the specific characteristics mentioned such as nucleuses at various heights, presence of cilia, and goblet cells. The other options do not match these specific features.

Submit
10. What does Stratified Epithelial mean?

Explanation

Stratified epithelial refers to epithelial tissues that consist of multiple layers of cells. This type of epithelium provides protection and is commonly found in areas of high wear and tear, such as the skin.

Submit
11. Identify the tissue seen here? What is the structure and location?

Explanation

The correct answer is (Stratified Squamous Epithelial tissue) and its structure and location have been described. The three incorrect answers do not correspond to the tissue described in the question.

Submit
12. Identify the tissue. What is the structure and location?

Explanation

The correct answer describes stratified cuboidal epithelial tissue, while the three incorrect options represent different types of epithelial tissues with their structures and locations.

Submit
13. Identify the tissue, where is its location, and identify the structures.

Explanation

The correct answer is (Stratified Columnar Epithelial tissue) which is relatively rare and is located in salivary glands, ducts of the female uterus, and male urethra. This tissue type is suited for areas where protection and secretion are necessary.

Submit
14. What type of tissue is the Stratified Transitional Epithelial tissue? Where is it found and how would you describe it?

Explanation

Each incorrect answer describes a different type of epithelial tissue along with a location and brief description to differentiate them from the correct answer.

Submit
15. Name three types of muscle tissue.

Explanation

The three types of muscle tissue are skeletal muscle tissue, which is attached to bones and helps with voluntary movements; cardiac muscle tissue, found in the heart and responsible for pumping blood; and smooth muscle tissue, which is found in the walls of internal organs and blood vessels.

Submit
16. What is the function of skeletal muscle tissue?

Explanation

Skeletal muscle tissue is responsible for various functions that involve movement, support, and temperature regulation within the body. The correct answer highlights these key roles.

Submit
17. Identify the tissue and function. Name two structures and the location where tissue is found.

Explanation

The correct answer is Cardiac Muscle Tissue, as it is specifically responsible for involuntary movement of the heart. It is located in the heart, and key structures include Striations, nuclei, and Intercalated discs which act as gap junctions for the heart.

Submit
18. Identify the tissue type found in the walls of the Small Intestine. Describe the tissue type and name two structures.

Explanation

Smooth Muscle tissue is found in the walls of the Small Intestine, while Cardiac Muscle tissue is found in the heart, Skeletal Muscle tissue is attached to bones for voluntary movement, and Nervous Tissue is responsible for transmitting signals in the nervous system.
