Question

Movements in body are brought about by ____________

• A. Muscular tissue
• B. Epithelial tissues
• C. Bones
• D. Tendons and ligaments

Answer 1

The correct option is A Muscular tissue

Epithelial tissues are meant for covering and protecting the body, organs and cavities. They are not involved in body movements.
Bones form the framework of the body. They are hard and rigid. To carry out body movement property of contraction and relaxation is necessary. But bones can not contract.
Tendon is a tough fibrous connective tissue, which connects muscle to bone. Tendon does not have the property of contraction and relaxation. The ligament is a fibrous connective tissue, which connects bone to another bone. It is flexible but is not present throughout the body to carry out body movement.
Muscular tissues possess the property of contraction and relaxation. They are attached to bones. With the help of bones, muscular tissue carries out body movement. Therefore, option A is correct.
