Quick revision
Class 9 Biology MCQs Tissues, Organs And Organ Systems are one of the fastest ways to improve your board exam performance — especially when you practice with purpose, revise weak concepts, and learn from explanations.
On Prepzy, you can practice 32 MCQs from “Tissues, Organs And Organ Systems” in Biology for FBISE. Each question is designed to mirror the style, wording, and concept-testing approach used in Pakistani board papers.
Use this chapter page to revise definitions, formulas, and key ideas, then attempt the MCQs in small sets. Track patterns in your mistakes: is it a concept gap, a calculation error, or a misread statement? Fixing the pattern is what raises your score.
If you’re preparing for matric / SSC Part exams, focus on understanding the concept first, then speed. MCQs reward clarity — not memorization. A clear concept turns into fast correct answers.
What to focus on
- Primary focus: Tissues, Organs And Organ Systems concepts tested in Class 9 Biology
- Practice with instant answer-checking to reduce repeated mistakes
- Revise common definitions, units, and standard results before timed practice
- Aim for accuracy first, then build speed with short quizzes
Study tips
- Read the question stem first, then scan options for distractors (near-correct choices).
- If the chapter is formula-heavy, write a mini-formula sheet and revise it before every attempt.
- After each practice set, re-attempt only the wrong MCQs to convert weak areas into strengths.
- Mix easy + medium MCQs for momentum, then finish with hard questions for exam readiness.

- 99.5 F
Answer & explanation
Correct: 98.6 F
The content states that the normal body temperature for homeostasis is 98.6 F.
10. Which organ system includes the heart and blood vessels?
- Respiratory System
- Cardiovascular System
- Digestive System
- Nervous System
Answer & explanation
Correct: Cardiovascular System
The cardiovascular system is composed of the heart and blood vessels that circulate blood.
11. What is the main function of the epidermis in leaves?
- Photosynthesis
- Water transport
- Protection and moisture retention
- Nutrient storage
Answer & explanation
Correct: Protection and moisture retention
The function of the epidermis is to protect the tissues and to prevent loss of water.
12. How does the body respond when blood sugar levels rise after a meal?
- Insulin is released to lower blood sugar levels
- Insulin is produced to raise blood sugar levels
- The body becomes dehydrated
- No response occurs
Answer & explanation
Correct: Insulin is released to lower blood sugar levels
The body releases insulin to lower blood sugar levels when they rise after a meal as part of maintaining homeostasis.
13. What is the innermost layer of the stomach wall called?
- Serosa
- Mucosa
- Muscularis
- Submucosa
Answer & explanation
Correct: Mucosa
The mucosa is the innermost layer that produces mucus to shield the stomach.
14. Which part of the shoot system typically grows above ground?
- Root system
- Vascular system
- Leaf system
- Shoot system
Answer & explanation
Correct: Shoot system
The shoot system generally grows above ground, where it absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis.
15. Which system is responsible for removing excess water and salts from the blood?
- Digestive system
