(a) Tissue that forms the inner lining of our mouth is Squamous epithelium.
(b) Tissue that connects muscle to bone in humans is Tendon.
(c) Tissue that transports food in plants is Phloem.
(d) Tissue that stores fat in our body is Adipose tissue.
(e) Connective tissue with a fluid matrix is Blood.
(f) Tissue present in the brain is Nervous tissue.
a) Squamous epithelium:
The squamous epithelium is made up of a single layer of flattened cells. Their thinness facilitates the easy transmission of materials.
b) Tendon:
A tendon is a fibrous connective tissue that connects muscles to bones. Tendons link muscles to bones, facilitating movement.
c) Phloem:
Phloem is the vascular tissue responsible for transporting and distributing organic nutrients. It is located in the stems and leaves, typically on the outer side of the vascular bundle. Phloem transports food and nutrients, such as sugars and amino acids, from the leaves to the storage organs and growing parts of the plant.
d) Adipose tissue (AT):
Adipose tissue is one of the major endocrine organs in the human body. In the integumentary system, it accumulates in the deepest layer, known as the subcutaneous layer, providing insulation from heat and cold.
e) Blood:
Blood is a fluid composed of plasma and cells that circulate throughout the body. It helps maintain internal body temperature by absorbing or releasing heat. Blood absorbs oxygen from the lungs and transports it to various cells in the body. Waste carbon dioxide is carried from the blood to the lungs to be exhaled.
f) Nervous tissue:
Nervous tissue consists of highly specialized cells in the brain and central nervous system that regulate an organism's actions. It provides electrical insulation to nerve cells and removes debris. Nervous tissue is responsible for transmitting messages from other neurons to the cell body.

(Street Plan) : A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines. There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
(i) how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
(ii) how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
Human bodies, like most animal bodies, are made up of four different types of tissue:
This tissue forms the outer layer of the body and also lines many of the body's cavities where it has a protective function.
General functions of epithelial tissue:-
This tissue assists in the support and protection of organs and limbs and depending on the location in the body it may join or separate organs or parts of the body.
This tissue enables various forms of movement, both voluntary and involuntary.
This tissue is responsible for the carrying of electrical and chemical signals and impulses from the brain and central nervous system to the periphery, and vice versa.
