Solution

The correct option is D Tendon
A tendon is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that usually connects muscle to bone and is capable of withstanding tension. Ligaments join one bone to another bone; cartilage smoothens bone surfaces at joints. Tendons and muscles work together to move bones.
So, the correct answer is option D.
