(a) | Locomotion, changes of body postures and heat production are some of the functions of skeletal muscle tissue |
(b) | Actin filaments are firmly attached to the Z-line |
(c) | The portion of myofibril between non-consecutive 'Z' lines is called sacromere |
(d) | Muscles constitute more than 50% of the body weight in an adult human |

A: | Muscle bundles are held together by collagenous connective tissue layer called fascicle. |
B: | Sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibre is a store house of calcium ions. |
C: | Striated appearance of skeletal muscle fibre is due to distribution pattern of actin and myosin proteins. |
D: | M line is considered as functional unit of contraction called sarcomere. |

Assertion (A): | Electrical excitability is a property of nervous tissue but not of muscular tissue. |
Reason (R): | The ability to respond to internal and external stimuli is lacking in muscular tissue. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Statement I: | A single filament of tropomyosin runs close to the ‘F’ actins throughout its length. |
Statement II: | In the resting state, a subunit of troponin masks the active binding sites for myosin on the actin filaments. |
1. | binds to the actin and myosin and makes them work together. |
2. | breaks apart ATP to ADP and P. |
3. | removes the tropomyosin block. |
4. | causes the release of acetylcholine. |
Statement I: | The myosin, hydrolysing ATP into ADP and Pi goes back to its relaxed state. |
Statement II: | Cross bridge is broken when myosin releases ADP and Pi. |
Statement I: | First seven pairs of the ribs are called true ribs and are attached to the thoracic vertebrae and ventrally connected to the sternum with the help of elastic cartilage. |
Statement II: | The 8th, 9th and 10th pairs are false ribs and join the seventh rib with the help of elastic cartilage. |
