UPSC NDA-1 – 2018
The correct answer is (B) Muscle tissue. Muscle tissue is specialized for contraction and contains proteins like actin and myosin, which are referred to as contractile proteins. These proteins interact to generate force and movement.
Contractile proteins (actin and myosin) are the fundamental components responsible for the ability of muscle tissue to contract and produce movement.
Nervous tissue transmits electrical signals. Bone tissue provides structural support and protection. Blood tissue is a connective tissue involved in transport. None of these tissues are primarily characterized by the presence and function of contractile proteins to the extent of muscle tissue.
