Question

Which of the following helps in the repair of tissue and fills up inside the organ?
A. Tendon
B. Areolar
C. Adipose
D. Cartilage

Answer 1

Tissues are a group of similar cells that perform the same function. In the human body, there are many types of tissues, which perform varying functions.

Complete answer:
Areolar tissues are those which support the internal organs. It is a loose connective tissue. It is also involved in damage repair of tissues. It holds the organs in their places. The attachment of the epithelial tissue with the underlying tissues is also facilitated by it.
Considering the other given options:
Tendons are fibrous connective tissues. It is the point of connection between muscles and bones. Thus it is not an appropriate option.
Adipose tissue also known as fat tissue is soft connective tissue. The constituent cells of the tissue are adipocytes. It functions as a heat reservoir. The tissue stores energy as fat beneath the skin. Another function of it is to provide heat and insulation to the body. Therefore it cannot be considered as the appropriate answer
Cartilage is a firm connective tissue but is much more flexible and softer than bones. It can be found in many joints, also on the external part of the ear as well as in the outer portion of the nose. Thus it is also not the right option.
Therefore, from the above-given options, the most appropriate answer is B. That is, Areola helps in tissue repair and also fills up the internal organ structure.

Note: In animals, there are four types of tissues. They are epithelial, connective, nervous, and muscular tissue. Connective tissue functions as a medium of connection between various other tissues as well as bind them together. Epithelial tissue forms an outer covering. Muscular tissue forms various muscles and nervous tissue forms the various nerves.
